Protein Sodas (Plant-Based and Whey)
Developing a variety of protein soda’s (plant-based and dairy-derived), offering functional protein delivery in a refreshing sparkling and still format.
Scope
Protein solubility and clarity trials
Flavour masking and sweetness adjustment
Nutritional modelling and claim alignment
Approach
Balancing protein stability and carbonation required careful pH control and hydrolysis selection. Comparative testing ensured both products achieved appealing taste and texture while remaining visually clear.
Outcome
Formulations and pilot specifications for two innovative, high-protein sparkling beverages, each compliant with target nutrition claims.
