Global ingredients company DSM-Firmenich has introduced two new solutions designed to deliver a dairy-like experience in plant-based beverages.

Its new Smart Milk flavours range has been crafted to help create the creamy, buttery and rich milky notes consumers seek when looking for alternatives to dairy, aiming to help transform plant-based drinks such as those made from pea and other plant proteins.

Additionally, the company’s new Dynarome DA technology solution has been developed to effectively mask off-notes while delivering an authentic dairy-like mouthfeel.

These innovations have been specifically formulated to mimic the taste and textural experience of traditional dairy milk, while offering an enhanced nutritional profile that more closely mirrors that of dairy.

Utkarsh Shah, VP Sweet Goods North America at DSM-Firmenich Taste, Texture and Health, said: “We've taken a deep dive into understanding what consumers truly crave and identified a significant gap in the market for authentic dairy-like experiences in plant-based beverages”.

“Our new innovations bridge that gap, offering the indulgent, creamy flavours that people love without sacrificing nutrition or values. These advancements represent a pivotal moment for plant-based options, allowing consumers to savour the taste they desire while embracing a healthier lifestyle.”
