Real color, aroma, and umami flavor for plant-based meats

SPI Group is pleased to be a distributor partner of Motif Food Works

Introducing Motif’s Hemami, a yeast-derived vegan heme protein. Hemami was created to meet the challenge of bringing flavor and color to plant-based burgers, sausages, chicken and other vegan meat applications. Hemami brings the ingredient myoglobin, which is found in traditional meat sources, to plant-based applications. With this cutting-edge food technology, vegetable proteins are enhanced with umami flavor and meat-y color that consumers expect from traditional proteins. When cooked, Hemami brings the aroma and browning from a traditional cooking process to the vegan plate. The full flavor experience of Hemami enhances an already present flavor system. With the color advantage of Hemami, traditional color enhancements can be removed, bringing a cost-effective solution to your application. Usage levels can vary, but typically fall in the range of 0.5 to 1.0% of formulation. In consumer product testing, consumers consistently preferred vegan burgers containing Hemami over the traditional vegan burger options. If you are looking to elevate taste, smell, and color in a plant-based meat application, we encourage you to reach out to your representative at SPI Group today for further discussion and samples.
