Denver, Colorado - Ardent Mills introduced two groundbreaking ingredient solutions, demonstrating its commitment to innovation and sustainability in the baking industry.
Designed to enhance both the efficiency and the nutritional value of baked goods, these new products mark a significant step forward in the company's offerings.
Egg Replace offers a sustainable alternative to traditional egg products.
Composed of just four ingredients, including chickpea, Egg Replace is not only gluten-free and vegan but also free from major US food allergens and soy.
This product addresses multiple industry challenges, such as supply stability and cost efficiency, while also providing protection against avian flu risks.
Ancient Grains Plus Baking Flour Blend leverages the nutritional benefits of whole-food ancient grains and chickpeas.
This blend offers higher protein content than traditional flours and is designed to reduce the need for added protein ingredients, supporting bakeries in achieving their finished-goods protein goals.
Like Egg Replace, this flour blend is plant-based, gluten-free, and does not contain major US food allergens, featuring a mild flavor that makes it versatile for various baking applications.
Alongside these product launches, Ardent Mills continues to embrace sustainable practices across its operations.
The company's report highlights significant strides in regenerative agriculture, with 598,064 acres enrolled in sustainable farming practices across North America.
This initiative is part of Ardent Mills' broader goal to enroll 1 million acres by the end of 2025 and 2.5 million by 2050, aiming to cover nearly 50% of its wheat usage with sustainable farming practices.
Ardent Mills also reported advancements in its efforts towards reducing waste and increasing the use of renewable energy within its facilities.
With 39.07% of its North American facilities now utilizing renewable energy sources, the company has shown improvement from the previous year, underscoring its commitment to environmental stewardship.
