"Interest in a low-carbohydrate lifestyle continues to grow as consumers seek solutions that match their personal health values and preferences. And although this market is a great opportunity, it's also a challenging environment for manufacturers,' says Ken Ruud, Director of Innovation, Ardent Mills. 'Our Net Carb Flour Blend provides bakers with uncompromised formulations for keto and low net carb applications.'

The Net Carb Flour Blend is nut-free and contains gluten which allows customers to run on their current equipment without any changes. It is available in white (all-purpose) and specialised flour blends for a broad range of bread and baked-good applications. Recently Keto certified by the Paleo Foundation, the blend is also non-GMO, dairy-free, vegan, has no-added sugar and is a great source of fibre.

'Our new Net Carb Flour Blend demonstrates Ardent Mills' commitment to innovating and growing our portfolio with the needs of customers and consumers at the forefront,' says Angie Goldberg, chief growth officer at Ardent Mills. 'We're passionate about bringing the best tasting, on-trend solutions to manufacturers across the US and ultimately helping them deliver profitable growth."

Ardent Mills also offers a bake-lab consultation and pilot testing resources to help with ideation, formulation, scaling and rapid commercialisation.
