Production Steps
- Step 1: Preparation (Heating/Melting) - Heat IMO syrup to 45°C in a double boiler. Warm whey protein isolate to room temperature.
- Step 2: Mixing (Order of ingredients) - In stainless steel mixing bowl, combine whey protein isolate, casein protein, and collagen peptides. Gradually add warm IMO syrup while mixing at low speed for 3 minutes.
- Step 3: Stabilization (Cooling/Setting) - Transfer mixture to lined baking trays. Cool at 4°C for 2 hours, then cut into bars and package immediately.
Replacement Suggestions
If an ingredient is unavailable, here are scientifically validated alternatives:
IMO Syrup → Allulose Syrup
Allulose provides similar sweetness profile but with lower glycemic impact. May require slight adjustment to water activity (target: 0.55-0.60).
IMO Syrup → Polydextrose
Polydextrose offers excellent fiber content and texture stability. Increases fiber content by ~15% and reduces water activity by ~0.05 units.
Whey Protein Isolate → Hydrolyzed Collagen
Hydrolyzed collagen provides superior solubility and digestibility. May require increased binding agents due to lower viscosity.
