Deliver the Tortilla That Customers Crave

Top store brands are failing to deliver the perfect tortilla – one that’s got great taste, texture and appearance – according to feedback from a blind taste test conducted by Bon Appétit editors.¹

Yet, with growing demand due to their diverse use and convenience, there’s increasing opportunity in tortilla manufacturing to deliver the ideal product and nail customer expectations.

The tortilla recipe is relatively simple. So, building the perfect tortilla starts with your ingredients list.

In tortilla production, ingredients make the difference

High-quality raw ingredients play a crucial role in producing the ideal tortilla, characterized by symmetry, uniformity, opacity, toast marks, puffiness, softness, flexibility without cracking, and a long shelf life.²

ARM & HAMMER™ TORTILLA BLEND™ Sodium Bicarbonate is the key to exceptional tortillas because it is specifically formulated to create an essential staged leavening process.

This staged leavening reaction is achieved by precise control of the sodium bicarbonate particle size resulting in better tortilla stack heights, opacity, even toast points, and a great texture. The outcome is a more appealing tortilla that shoppers are craving.

Perfect tortillas start with leavening

Leavening is the process of aerating a dough by introducing gas bubbles during mixing. These bubbles then expand during baking, providing volume, uniform cell structure, resiliency and texture.

With staged leavening achieved through precise control of the sodium bicarbonate particle size, TORTILLA BLEND™ offers the following advantages:

• Goes into solution at the proper rate
• Activates dough mass during the initial ingredient mixing stage
• Allows for even gas distribution throughout the dough
• Promotes even rise during subsequent heating
• Specifically targets desirable tortilla attributes, such as height, volume, uniform structure, bready texture, toast point color and reduced translucency
