Baking

When looking for that ideal color and/or caramel taste to add into your latest bakery creation, from breads to wafer sticks to even cronuts, Sethness Roquette gives you the appropriate Caramel that satisfies any baked good application.

By providing liquid and powdered Caramel Colors, Sethness Roquette provides you the flexibility of adding Caramel Color into your mixture at just the right time. It also gives you two options depending on your needs, as liquid Caramel Color is more economical and powdered Caramel Color is easier to use.

Sethness Roquette liquid Caramel Colors, Caramelized Sugar Syrups and powdered Caramel Colors are used in a variety of baking applications including:

 • Breads: wheat, pumpernickel, dark rye  • Frozen dough  • Cakes  • Cookies  • Crackers  • Snacks  • Cereal bars  • Cocoa extender  • Cinnamon extender

Occasionally, when liquid Caramel Colors are used in bakery applications, there are concerns about the extra moisture being added into the system. Adjustments may be made to the formula to reduce the water. Liquid Caramel Colors should be added to other liquid ingredients before the liquid mixture is added to the dry ingredients as this generates a more uniform color.

Caramelized Sugar Syrups have been proven to be superior to sugar in providing moisture retention in frozen cakes and pastries due to less crystallization.

Occasionally, there is an issue of spotting or streaking in baking applications. If this occurs, Sethness Roquette recommends the following ideas to help minimize this problem:

 • Powdered Caramel Colors are extremely hygroscopic, so it is critical to avoid moisture and humidity. Premix the Powdered Caramel Color with other dry ingredients in an air-conditioned room to control moisture and possible lumping.  • For better distribution, blend powdered Caramel Color with other dry components before adding to the liquid ingredients.  • Powdered Caramel Color containers should be sealed after each use, as moisture can produce small lumps.  • Ensure that there are no flakes on the side of the powdered Caramel Color bag. If there is any build up, this material may cause spotting and not dissolve easily.  • The Powdered Caramel Color should be added through a screen system.

Caramel Color is the most widely used color in the pancake and waffle syrups. Some of our liquid Caramel Colors are recommended because of their overall color strength with minimal flavor impact.

Burnt Sugars are also used for their Aromatic profile to bring sweet and burned notes. They provide some "aromatic" qualities besides color to the final product. Two typical products used in that perspective are the 0115PW in powder form, and the 0100S in liquid form. Burnt Sugars have the same compatibility as Caramel Colors.

NB: Burnt Sugars can only be labeled as such according to the EU regulation. In other countries, the recommended label is Class I Caramel Color. But please contact us for more details.
