Cosun Ingredients looks back on a successful presence at Vitafoods Europe in Barcelona, where we showcased how plant-based proteins and prebiotic fibers can come together in future‑proof nutrition concepts. We welcomed many visitors at our booth and engaged in inspiring conversations around innovation, functionality and taste.
At Vitafoods, we presented a selection of application concepts that reflect current and emerging nutrition trends, all developed with Tendra® fava bean protein isolate and Sensus chicory root fiber.
Tasting innovation: from functional beverages to GLP‑1 balanced nutrition
Visitors were invited to taste three application concepts, each demonstrating how protein and fiber can be combined without compromising sensory quality:
- Next‑generation functional beverage
A refreshing melon berry‑flavored clear lemonade, high in protein and fiber, designed to support digestive comfort while maintaining clarity and a clean, refreshing taste. - GLP‑1 balanced nutrition concepts
In line with the growing interest in GLP‑1‑supportive nutrition, we showcased:- A crunchy peanut protein bar
- A ready‑to‑mix golden milk
These applications clearly demonstrated how combining plant-based proteins and prebiotic fibers enables nutritious products that meet today’s expectations for taste, texture and functionality.
Protein and fiber: a powerful combination
Our presence at Vitafoods highlighted the strength of combining Tendra® fava bean protein isolate with Sensus chicory root fiber across different application areas, from functional beverages to bars and ready‑to‑mix concepts.
The positive feedback from visitors and the quality of the discussions confirmed the growing interest in integrated ingredient solutions that support protein enrichment, fiber intake and overall nutritional balance.
We look back on Vitafoods Europe as a valuable event filled with meaningful interactions and shared inspiration, and we look forward to continuing these conversations beyond the show.
