CSM Ingredients introduces Tiger Granulat
The ingredient can enhance bread and savory baked goods.
CSM Ingredients, a Nexture company, is expanding its savory bakery decoration portfolio with Tiger Granulat, the powdered evolution of its Tiger Paste. Reportedly designed to provide a decorative, extra crispy crust and a bold savory finish, Tiger Granulat aims to offer bakers and food manufacturers a practical, ready-to-use solution to enhance a wide range of bread and savory baked goods, from baguettes and loaves to focaccia, pretzels, and baked snacks.
Building on the success and recognizability of Tiger Paste, Tiger Granulat strives to translate the same distinctive visual and sensory signature into a powder format, specifically developed to ensure greater flexibility in application and optimal performance also on industrial production lines.
A versatile decorative solution for modern bakery needs
Bakery products are increasingly required to stand out not only for taste, but also for texture and visual appeal, the company says. At the same time, bakers and manufacturers are looking for solutions that are easy to use, reliable, and adaptable to different processes and scales.
Tiger Granulat responds to these needs by offering a ready-to-use decorative ingredient that can be applied directly to the dough surface before baking, without additional mixing steps. During baking, it develops a characteristic extra crunchy crust with a distinctive decorative effect, helping transform everyday bread formats into recognizable, premium products, CSM Ingredients notes.
According to the company:
- Thanks to its powdered form, Tiger Granulat allows for precise and individual dosing, enabling manufacturers to modulate flavor intensity and visual impact according to specific product concepts and target markets, the company adds.
- The product is suitable for manual or mechanical application, including sprinkling, rolling, or pressing, making it compatible with both artisanal practices and automated industrial lines.
- This ease of handling supports operational efficiency while ensuring consistent results batch after batch.
Wide application potential across savory bakery
Tiger Granulat is suitable for all types of bread and small savory baked goods, offering creative freedom across a broad product range. The company says that typical applications include:
- Baguettes and bread loaves, for a distinctive crust and premium shelf appeal
- Rustic and specialty breads, enhancing texture and visual identity
- Focaccia and flatbreads, adding crunch and savory character
- Pretzels and baked snacks, delivering extra crispy enjoyment without greasy handling
With Tiger Granulat, CSM Ingredients is aiming to further strengthen its position as a partner for bakery professionals seeking value-added, application-oriented ingredient solutions. The product reflects the company’s ability to evolve established concepts into formats that meet changing production requirements, without compromising on sensory quality or visual impact, it says.
