535. Heli Anttila: Three chocolate futures (IN ENGLISH)

The concept of foodtech includes a wide range of science and innovation, and the confectionery sector is no exception. Heli Anttila is Head of Innovation at Fazer Confectionery in Finland. Her team is constantly working on developing their vast assortment of products by testing new ingredients and processes. Under the brand Taste the Future, they have come up with a new way of producing chocolate using rye instead of cocoa - an ingredient with bot climate change and social sustainability challenges. A collaboration with Solar Foods adds the protein Solein in another pilot product, and cultivated cocoa is a third way of innovating. We met Heli at Fazer's Swedish HQ in Stockholm to hear more about their work. // Podcast host: Christian von Essen // Learn more at hejaframtiden.se and subscribe to the newsletter (in Swedish).
