At Fi Europe 2026, Cosun Ingredients will bring its portfolio of plant-based ingredient solutions to life, exploring some of the key developments shaping food and nutrition today. From prebiotic nutrition and the evolving nutritional needs associated with the GLP-1 era to functional beverages, plant based protein and hybrid foods, visitors can experience how our ingredients can help turn emerging opportunities into appealing food and beverage concepts.
As part of the Cosun booth, together with Aviko Rixona, Duynie and Cosun Beet Company, Cosun Ingredients invites visitors to explore, taste and discuss new possibilities for food and beverage innovation.
As the GLP-1 era puts greater focus to nutritional quality, protein intake and digestive wellness, manufacturers face the challenge of translating these needs into appealing everyday products. Frutafit® and Frutalose® chicory root fibers help deliver meaningful prebiotic benefits across a broad range of applications. Backed by scientific expertise and formulation support, they offer versatile solutions for formats ranging from gummies and beverages to bars, dairy drinks, bakery products and beyond.
In functional beverages, delivering protein-rich nutrition without compromising taste, texture or mouthfeel remains a key challenge. With its neutral taste profile and excellent functional properties, Tendra® fava bean protein helps manufacturers address this challenge. Combined with chicory root fiber for added fiber and prebiotic benefits, and supported by application expertise, it opens up opportunities for nutritious and enjoyable functional beverages.
The tasting experience also extends to hybrid foods. With Fidesse® sugar beet fiber, visitors can discover hybrid meat concepts such as a burger and bratwurst. By enabling partial meat replacement while maintaining the familiar taste, quality and eating experience consumers expect, Fidesse® offers manufacturers an attractive route to more affordable and sustainable hybrid foods.
And there is more to taste, including a sugar-reduced Dutch syrup waffle, showing that indulgence and smarter formulation can go hand in hand.
From better nutrition to better-performing products, discover how Cosun Ingredients turns plant based ingredients into solutions you can experience.
