Raise Your Bread to the Next Level With Livendo®

October 4, 2022
Author Name

With its tangy flavour, sourdough bread is an increasingly popular offering at cafes and bakeries across the region. Bakers use sourdough as a differentiating factor to give fresh appeal to conventional bread products.

You can find innovative sourdough-based versions of toasted breads, donuts, pizzas and even croissants. In fact, the versatility and appeal of sourdough have contributed to a significant increase in packaged sourdough products in recent years.

What Gives Sourdough its Premium Appeal?

Making sourdough from scratch can be time-consuming, including the regular refreshing of the sourdough starter to keep it active.

This traditional process and the unique flavours of sourdough give it a premium image among consumers, who perceive it as a more natural, healthier, and authentic alternative to white breads.

With 2 in 3 APAC* consumers willing to spend more on premium quality food**, it is no wonder that bakers are using sourdough to offer more premium and differentiated products.

A Sourdough Range for Every Professional’s Needs

Driven by consumers’ positive image of sourdough, we developed Livendo®—a comprehensive range of solutions that guarantee ease of use, consistency in results and diversity in application for sourdough products.

Livendo®’s sourdough formulations are also designed to spark your imagination in the kitchen. With our devitalised sourdough, a single recipe can be applied to create 10 variations of the same bread, each with its unique flavour and aromatic notes.

Explore our selection of sourdough solutions for professional bakers:
