Blommer Chocolate Company and DouxMatok Expand Partnership with New Chocolate andConfectionery Coatings
New Additions to Discovery Product Line will Enable Sugar Reduction in a Broad Range of FoodApplications
New York, NY (May 11, 2022) – Today Blommer Chocolate Company (USA), the largest cocoa processor
and ingredient chocolate supplier in North America, and DouxMatok (Israel/USA), a food tech company
spearheading sugar reduction, announced the launch of additional chocolate and confectionery
products. Earlier this year, Blommer launched the innovative Discovery product line, empowered byDouxMatok’s award-winning sugar-based sugar reduction solution, Incredo® Sugar. The first products werechocolate-flavored chips and they have now expanded the product line to include additional coatings tosupport utilization in a broader range of food applications, including but not limited to panning,enrobing, and molding.
Providing sugar-reduced chocolate that delivers on taste, sweetness and nutrition has been a longstanding industry challenge, particularly while fulfilling increased consumer interest in short andunderstandable ingredient lists. Blommer is pushing the envelope again with this new line of milk, darkand white coatings, achieving up to 50% sugar reduction without using any high intensity sweeteners orsugar alcohols. The team of chocolate scientists at Blommer have designed various concepts todemonstrate that it is now a possibility to achieve over 40% sugar reduction in some of the beloved
snack and bakery applications such as nut butter cups, bars and chocolate chip cookies.
“Global research continues to indicate that taste is the first consideration when consumers make foodchoices, but they have historically shied away from chocolate products with less added sugar due tonegative taste perception,” said David Meggs, Chief Operating Officer at Blommer Chocolate Company.
“We have tremendous opportunity at our fingertips to bring consumers back to this category who haveavoided sugar-reduced products because they simply didn’t taste good enough.”Blommer is excited to be first to market with this innovation and will continue to expand the Discovery
product line to meet the rapidly changing consumer needs. This month, Blommer and DouxMatok will
be in attendance at Sweets & Snacks Expo 2022 in Chicago. Blommer invites those interested to stop bybooth #11956 at McCormick Place from Tuesday, May 24th to Thursday, May 26 th, to taste thedifference or reach out to parternships@douxmatok.com and marketing@blommer.com to learn more.
“We’re thrilled about the new opportunities that the expanded Discovery product line will open up forfood brands,” said Kelly Thompson, DouxMatok’s SVP Head of North America. “Chocolate-coveredsnacks are beloved by consumers, and they shouldn’t have to compromise on taste or nutrition when
they reach for their favorite treats.”
