(September 12, 2022) Edison, NJ – AAK, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of value-adding specialty vegetable fats and oils, invites attendees of the International Baking Industry Exposition (IBIE) 2022 to visit booth #6847 to discover multi-functional fat and oil solutions that enhance a range of baking applications. AAK’s multi-sourced specialty oils will be featured in several craveable concepts for attendees to experience at the show.

Fats and oils are key components in foods such as bakery products and impact the ultimate taste and texture of baked goods. AAK’s line of plant-based oils solutions is designed to meet today’s dynamic marketplace demands, helping manufacturers create the healthier and more sustainable plant-based foods today’s consumers are seeking.

Visitors to IBIE booth #6847 can sample several innovative bakery concepts AAK’s Innovation team created for the show including:

  • Chocolate cake with caramel flavored icing – This fluffy and moist chocolate cake with light caramel flavor and caramel color icing is topped with sweet and salty white sprinkles and candied pecans. Features AAK’s AkoSun™ 46-53XP high oleic sunflower oil which provides volume, crumb structure and tenderness for the cake, and AAK’s Cisao® 8315-03-01, a zero trans-fat, non-hydrogenated, palm oil solution that gives icing improved whippability and extended shelf life. AAK’s Cisao® 8253-00-02 is also added to provide structure to the sprinkles and act as a moisture barrier for the pecan inclusions.
  • White chocolate chunk cookie dipped in dark chocolate – This delicious cookie showcases the wonders of plant-based butter. AAK used it as a 1:1 replacement for dairy butter, improving stability to deliver better taste and texture in every decadent bite. Features AAK’s AKOVEG™ 160-04 refined coconut oil blended with high oleic sunflower oil; AAK’s CEBES® 29-01 NH, a premium blend of non-hydro palm kernel oil and palm oil that can be used for confectionery coatings; AAK’s CEBES® 21-20, a high-performance non-hydro palm kernel oil ideal for inclusions like chunks or chips.
