For consumers of premium and affordable
products alike, taste is the most
important driver shaping purchasing decisions.
Following taste, convenience is also
a crucial factor that influences decisions
around buying and consuming cheese. For
producers of young foil-ripened continental
cheese, options for differentiating flavor
have been limited. F-DVS CR-Buttery02 is a
ripening solution that is uniquely designed
to intensify the natural buttery flavor in
continental cheese. The flavor development
happens at low temperature and
within a short time, thereby reducing time
to market.
‘‘Buttery flavor in cheese builds on the
formation of diacetyl. CR-Buttery02 yields
a high diacetyl level after just 2-4 weeks
and even at a ripening temperature of 5°C.
The diacetyl level remains high throughout
ripening, and this is underscored by
its intense buttery flavor. Also, when using
a citrate-negative starter culture, no eye
formation is observed’’ explains Christian
Niebuhr, Head of Application Central Europe
at Chr. Hansen.
Due to no eye formation and good
sliceability, CR-Buttery02 caters to consumer
demands for a convenient sliced format,
less waste produced during production,
and a subsequently more sustainable
product. Consumers have a heightened
awareness of sustainability and are actively
seeking to support companies who showcase
their sustainable efforts. By optimizing
production, CR-Buttery02 can help
cheese makers cater to the global demand
for sustainable consumption and responsibly
produced food.
Finding the perfect flavor
The consumer demand for interesting, new
taste experiences creates a significant opportunity
for cheesemakers to differentiate
their products on flavor. For that purpose,
Chr. Hansen has developed a comprehensive
range of DVS ripening cultures and
lipases that enable cheesemakers to customize
their cheese whether they wish
to expand their portfolio by creating new
cheeses with signature flavors, or they
wish to renew consumer interest in existing
product lines by injecting new life into
them.
“To help navigate the flavor landscape,
we have developed our digital Taste-IT
tool, which we use together with cheesemakers,
to understand how tweaks to
their recipe, affect taste outcomes. Enabling
them to make choices that lead them
in the direction they want to go,” shares
Christian Niebuhr.
