LONDON, January 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

The hottest ingredients to promote a healthier and nutritious bakery category are on the agenda at Food ingredients' Bakery Innovation Europe conference, taking place in Munich on 19 & 20 February 2014, in response to increasing consumer demands.

International bakery manufacturers Fazer, Warburtons, Nairn's Oatcakes and Philippe Pasteleria will be presenting their insights into the bakery ingredients landscape and the innovations that are helping them achieve products that meet changing consumer demands at this high-profile industry event.

Bakery product developers, nutritionists, R&D professionals, technical and application scientists and related job titles can expect to receive all the insights and knowledge to set their NPD and reformulation strategies up for 2014 and beyond! Plus, the post-conference seminar focusing on the enormous benefits and uses of oats in bakery will aid bakery companies in the development of innovative and nutritional products to boost their sales and margins in a competitive market.

Conference Producer Kate Sharman explains: "The feedback received from bakery manufacturers including Allied Bakeries, Premier Foods, United Biscuits and more while developing this programme told us that they wanted more technical detail, which has been built into the programme with the expert speaking sessions from leading researchers from institutions including Brunel University, University College Cork, Campden BRI, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and many more."

Key issues around sugar, sodium and fat reduction, gluten and allergen free reformulation and added value functional ingredients will be covered, as well as key insights into consumer trends, sensory science and future innovation strategies. This is the only meeting in Europe focusing on ingredients selection and application for the bakery industry who will come together to learn and network with key peers, customers and suppliers.
