In Europe, the first products using the patented technology showed excellent results in both retail and food service. Just recently, trade journalists from 28 countries chose the „Kwekkeboom Oven” range from manufacturer Royaan as best Dutch introduction to the food market, as part of the World Tour Election for the 2016 edition of the food fair „Salon International de l’alimentation” (SIAL).
Crisp Sensation already branched out effectively to the US, their office at Willis Tower in Chicago opened in 2014. With local sales offices now established on three major continents, Crisp Sensation is again closer to the worldwide market. The innovative crumb-coating experts offer their European, American and Asian customers a complete range of services, from product development and testing to scale-up. Manufacturers who want to develop new products or reformulate their existing range can alternatively use the Crisp Sensation technology under license at their own facilities or use the company’s contract manufacturing services.
The patented coating process guarantees a succulent core while the coating remains crispy for up to 3 hours in regular holding units. And, depending on the formulation, even reduced-fat snacks can be coated — without compromising on taste. Crisp Sensation coated foods are not only ideal for home snacking products, but also for restaurants, catering, convenience stores and food service providers. Simple to prepare by baking, microwaving, grilling or frying, periods of high and low demand can be handled just as easily, reducing both waste and expenditure. The technical process is suitable for all kind of crumb-coated products, including meat and fish nuggets, mozzarella sticks, onion rings, other vegetable bites and even sweet variants.
