Artisanal Baker's Yeast
Baker’s yeast acts as a leavening agent in baking bread and bakery products, where it converts the fermentable sugars present in the dough into carbon dioxide, a small amount of ethanol, and aromatic compounds. Baker’s yeast also contributes to the nutritional value, taste, and texture of baked goods.
Artisanal bakers today face a variety of challenges — from consumers’ demands and taste trends to production needs and even regulatory requirements. The need for versatile ingredients is on the rise.
Lallemand Baking’s continual innovation with yeast and bakery ingredients offers a wide range of baker’s yeast that can help fulfill your needs.
Lallemand Baking offers artisanal baker’s different types of yeast, depending on their unique processes and preferences:
Compressed / Block Yeast: This yeast is characterized by a high moisture content and is compressed into a block. It is easy to use and doesn’t require any specific conditions of use versus dried yeast. Contrary to generally accepted ideas, it is not damaged if in contact with salt.
Crumbled / Bag Yeast: Fine yeast particles obtained by vacuum filtration. It is easy to use and doesn’t require any specific conditions to use. It is also easier to dilute into water (yeast suspension) versus block yeast.
Lallemand Baking also offer baker’s yeast solutions for your specific applications: lean dough, sweet dough, pizza, frozen products and more.
