Batory Foods adds sugar-reduction product

ROSEMONT - Batory Foods said Wednesday it has signed a commercial distribution agreement for Incredo Sugar, a sugar-based product that reduces the amount of sugar needed to make baked goods and confectionery products.

Incredo Sugar is made by DouxMatok, and Israel-based food tech company spearheading sugar reduction. Incredo Sugar is the only solution on the market made of real cane sugar, and achieves the same level of sweetness with up to 50% less sugar and no compromise on taste or texture, the two companies said in a joint news release.

"Adding an innovative solution like Incredo Sugar to our portfolio of ingredients provides an excellent opportunity for us to keep up with growing demands of both consumers and food brands looking for products that are both indulgent and deliver on nutrition," said Vince Pinneri, president of Rosemont-based Batory Foods.

Founded in 1979, Batory Foods is a national sales and supply chain management solutions provider offering a full portfolio of high-quality food ingredients to food, beverage and medical manufacturers throughout the U.S.
