Darifair Foods Inc.'s latest brainchild is a product called Identi•cal Plus cream substitute. The product is not identical to cream; it actually is better, say company executives. “We can stabilize the price for up to 12 months,” says executive vice president Jeffery Block, pointing out that Identi•cal Plus is already 25%-40% less expensive than heavy cream.
The product offers other “stabilized” advantages as well. Darifair scientists have succeeded in matching much of the taste and other characteristics of heavy cream, but with the enhanced capacity of freeze/thaw stability and resistance to harsh processing steps.
