Food Ingredients Europe 2025: Loryma demonstrates wheat-based functional ingredients
Loryma will present wheat-derived proteins, starches, and extrudates at stand 71C34, focusing on applications in health-oriented baked goods, pasta, snacks, and plant-based products.
The company has expanded its protein crisp raw materials to include pumpkin seed and fava bean extrudates. The EU-produced pumpkin seed extrudate contains approximately 35% protein and provides fibre for both sweet and savoury applications. On-site tastings will include versions coated with sunflower seed-based chocolate from Choviva, alongside neutral and savoury-spiced variants.
Fava bean crisps offer 50% protein content and can be thinly coated for chocolate product applications. Loryma’s concentrated wheat proteins deliver up to 82% protein in dry matter across hydrolysed, extruded, and powdered forms, enabling high-protein claims whilst maintaining neutral taste profiles.
Lory Starch Elara wheat starch contains 90% fibre content. Replacing flour or durum wheat semolina with this starch produces fibre-enriched baked goods and pasta with reduced carbohydrate and calorie content, typically without recipe or process modifications.
The company will also demonstrate Lory Crumb non-fry breadcrumbs combined with Lory Starch Opal for low-fat coating applications. Samples include hybrid nuggets containing 66% chicken meat and 30% extruded wheat protein. Additionally, Colouring Crumbs in pink, yellow, orange, and green use natural food colourants for creative breading, topping, and snack applications.
Loryma operates within the sixth-generation Crespel & Deiters Group, which has processed wheat since 1858. The company controls the complete value chain from wheat procurement through component separation and extrusion to modification into functional products.
