Solar Foods' Solein microbial protein made from air has been incorporated into Taste the Future by Fazer, an innovative chocolate snack bar.
This dark chocolate snack bar is studded with hazelnut and dried strawberry pieces, and it contains 2% Solein grown with CO2 and electricity. As a functional, nutritious and versatile ingredient, Solein enriches this chocolate snack bar with a source of iron.
Fazer recently hosted a media tasting for its limited-edition bar before a one-time public sampling opportunity at The Cocoa Trees store at Raffles City Shopping Centre. "Singapore is the perfect test ground for our Taste the Future Chocolate Snack Bar, with a highly innovative food ecosystem and people who are not only passionate about food, but curious to try new things that are new, with nutrition and sustainability benefits," said Heli Anttila, VP of new product development at Fazer Confectionery.
