Shiru, which uses its Flourish discovery platform to find plant-based proteins that have the same functionality as those found naturally found in animal-based foods, said it has found proteins and produced prototypes that could take the place of egg ingredients.
Through this partnership, Puratos will use its fermentation capability to prototype ingredients for application testing in several baked goods, and Shiru will work to accelerate the timeline to make them available to baked goods customers.
This is the second partnership between Shiru and a large ingredients maker. In March, CP Kelco announced it was working with Shiru.
