For formulations that need satisfying texture, moisture control and fiber value

Potato flakes derived from potato-based raw materials deliver texture, moisture control and formulation flexibility across bakery, convenience foods, savory systems, ice cream and nutrition. They build fuller body, stable structure and a satisfying bite, while supporting fiber enrichment and cleaner label positioning. Organic and non-GMO options are available.

Let’s solve your challenge!

Together, we'll identify the right solution for your process, formulation, and labeling needs.

Versatile performance

Texture, fiber value and moisture control — all from one potato-based category

Potato flakes give formulators a direct path to better structure, mouthfeel and stability. Depending on the grade, they retain moisture, build viscosity, bulk formulations and develop texture, while reducing syneresis and extending freshness perception. Their neutral sensory profile and recognizable potato origin make them easy to position in clean-label and fiber-enriched concepts, without overshadowing the finished eating experience.

  • High water-binding supports soft, stable structure and moisture retention
  • Neutral odor and taste integrate cleanly across a wide range of recipes
  • Builds body, viscosity and structure where fuller texture is needed
  • Reduces phase separation and syneresis in sensitive systems
  • Enables fiber enrichment and high-fiber claims in selected applications
  • Improves mouthfeel and sensory fullness in low-fat or reformulated products
