Since its entry into customised savoury blends in 2010, Sherratt Ingredients says it has carved a niche in the market for the development, manufacture and supply of meat, poultry and savoury blend solutions.
“Our success in bespoke blends comes from our local inhouse expertise in ingredient applications and formulations. We have an incredible team of skilled food technologists based in Auckland, with specialised knowledge in savoury food development,” says Sharon Burkett, marketing manager at Sherratt Ingredients.
“The team work with customers to develop blends to optimise texture, stability, flavour delivery, yield and value, or even create something new and innovative. It’s inspiring to watch them in our development kitchens creating, testing and refining formulations to find the best solution for our customers.”
Sherratt Ingredients offers bespoke blends covering customised seasonings, flavoured glazes and sprinkles, bacon and ham cures, meat shelf-life extenders, protein blends, cheese sauce and sausage premixes, coatings, breaders and batters. Each blend solution is supported by technical expertise, application testing, and a collaborative development process.
When the product development team isn’t busy with customer briefs, they are working on developing new, innovative products. Sherratt Ingredients has recently developed Opti-P-EM, a new functional pork protein blend for emulsion products. In-house testing has shown Opti-P-EM helps with improving texture and taste and reducing costs, while maintaining product quality and delivering a consistent bite. The team are now working on a functional pork protein blend for injection application.
An added advantage for customers is that Sherratt Ingredients manufactures its blends locally. With two manufacturing sites in Hobsonville, Auckland, it has flexibility to offer halal and non-halal solutions.
“For food manufacturers looking to improve product performance or unlock new opportunities in meat and savoury innovation, Sherratt Ingredients can work with you to develop and produce trusted blend solutions that deliver the right results at scale.”
