The mix meets the Government's school sugar guidelines and is perfect for educational establishments to serve throughout the day. The easy-to-use mix can be used by all skill levels, requiring just water and Marvello, and is perfect for adding healthy inclusions, including chai seeds, banana pieces, cranberry and oats.
Alternatively, add a light decoration drizzle with a light sprinkle or a little dunk with crembel. The mix is a versatile bakery solution that allows caters to ensure they have a high quality and reduced sugar range that appeals to all customers including students and staff.
The mix produces a soft ‘melt in the mouth’ cookie base with a soft centre and outer crunch, with 30% less sugar than the standard cookie. It also has the added benefit of a subtle natural vanilla flavour with great volume and texture.
Because the mix contains less sugar, it enables bakers to create larger portion sizes and be rest assured that when serving younger audiences it also meets school sugar guidelines. Bakers can also plan out their ranges in good time as they the cookies can be baked, frozen and then baked off fresh ahead of busy times.
Miriam Bernhart, director category bread & pastry solutions at CSM Ingredients, said: “Craigmillar reduced sugar cookie mix is perfect for educational establishments to add a new dimension to their cookie ranges. The adaptability of the mix means it can be used on its own or with inclusions and across the whole year including for seasonal products.
“The end result of a delicious soft, melt in the mouth cookie base with a soft centre and outer crunch ensures a high-quality product is produced time after time. It’s important to have a range available all day long as snacking becomes more indulgent as the day progresses.
“We know that there is demand for this category and recent research also shows that 37% of consumers agree that companies should slowly reduce sugar content over time without a replacement, almost a silent reduction to help people reduce sugar in their diets. We are delighted with the quality of the mix and the high-end quality product that we know both bakers/caterers and consumers will love.”
