What is it?

Short-length bamboo fibre is a dietary fibre derived from the bamboo plant, specifically from the inner part of the bamboo stem. It is processed into a fine, powdery form suitable for various applications. This natural fibre is known for its unique properties, making it a valuable ingredient in both food and non-food products.

Appearance: Typically, it is light in colour and has a neutral taste, allowing it to be incorporated into various products without significantly altering their appearance or taste.

Functionalities

  • Texture Improvement: Short-length bamboo fibre can enhance the texture of food products by providing bulk and a smooth mouthfeel. It can help in creating a more desirable texture in baked goods, dairy products, and meat alternatives.
  • Calorie Reduction: It can be used as a bulking agent to replace higher-calorie ingredients, thereby helping in the formulation of low-calorie and reduced-fat products.
  • Moisture Retention: Bamboo fibre helps in retaining moisture, which can improve the shelf life and freshness of baked goods and other moisture-sensitive products.
  • Stabilisation and Thickening: It acts as a natural stabiliser and thickener in various food applications such as sauces, dressings, and dairy products, helping to maintain consistency and prevent separation.
  • Fibre Enrichment: Adding bamboo fibre to food products increases their dietary fibre content, which can promote digestive health and support overall wellness.
  • Improved Dough Handling: In baking, bamboo fibre can improve dough handling properties, making it easier to process and shape.
