A leading U.S. food manufacturer recently cut costs and cleaned up their labels by replacing traditional dairy ingredients such as whey powder and non-fat dry milk with VersiLac® in brownies, pizza crusts, and savory sauces.
By reformulating with VersiLac®, they achieved:
✅ Up to 14% lower ingredient costs
✅ 10% less sugar, 5% less cocoa, and 25% less salt
✅ Better moisture retention and flavor
Thanks to VersiLac’s natural flavor-enhancing minerals and moisture-binding properties, they simplified formulations without sacrificing taste or texture — and now use it in 70% of their product lineup.
