21/12/07 Visit the booth of Barry Callebaut at ISM (Hall 10.2 Aisle C No.: 010, Aisle D No.: 019) from Sunday 27 until Wednesday 30 January 2008, as to discover the new chocolate innovations: unique combinations of health and indulgence.

Toothfriendly chocolate endorsed by dentists
Barry Callebaut launches the first chocolate that received the “Happy Tooth” endorsement from the dental experts of the Toothfriendly International organization. For this toothfriendly chocolate, isomaltulose is used; a natural constituent of honey and sugar cane that has a very natural sweet taste. Unlike sucrose, isomaltulose is toothfriendly and not laxative. Barry Callebaut sees great potential for its new toothfriendly chocolate, especially in the children’s segment.
 
Soluble cocoa powder
After extensive research, the R&D-department of Barry Callebaut succeeded in developing the first cocoa powder that completely dissolves in water. This means no decantation and less cocoa powder is needed for a full chocolate taste. This soluble cocoa powder opens the way for rich, tasty and smooth chocolate drinks, ice cream or mousses.
 
ACTICOA: Chocolate with antioxidants that help to keep a young and smooth skin
Scientific studies already proved the power of polyphenols on several domains: these antioxidants do not only help to stay healthy and fit, they also help to maintain a healthy heart and contribute to good cognitive performances. Recent studies, done on behalf of Barry Callebaut, also proved the beneficial effect of antioxidants in helping to maintain a young, smooth and healthy skin. More information about ACTICOA, a special production process that guarantees the maximum preservation of antioxidants in chocolate and cocoa powder, can be found on www.acticoa.com.
