Cocoa powder

A tasty instant cocoa powder allowing various nutritional claims can be achieved by using Actilight®for the replacement of up to 30% of sucrose used in the standard recipe. Due to this lower sugar content and the addition of soluble fibres, “reduced sugars” and “high fibre” claims can be used.

It can also result in the cocoa powder having a prebiotic effect: the daily consumption of just one single 250 mL portion, which provides 6.3 g of fibres, contributes to a good digestive system.

These concepts have been designed for women, who tend to be more subject to digestive discomfort (a daily intake of 5g of scFOS has been shown to improve intestinal well-being), and for parents who want to control the sugars intake of their children while allowing them to indulging in a tasty and nutritious drink.
