My Berry Cookie

Made from berry pomace, gluten-free, My Berry Cookie is rich in colour, aroma and dietary fibre.

My Berry Cookie is a unique value-added gluten-free product in terms of colour, pronounced aroma and significantly improved nutritional profile in comparison to available products of the same category on the market. Offering a balance between "healthy" and delicious, My Berry Cookie was developed to suit consumers, even those with special needs and habits. It is the result of a partnership between two complementary sides: science and industry. Nutry Allergy Center from Zemun offered manufacturer's know-how and a multidisciplinary team of young scientists brought their enthusiasm and innovation potential to create it. An idea of valorisation of blueberry and raspberry pomaces, by-products of juice production is realised in the form of delicious cookies. We found a way to produce “healthy” ingredients-concentrates, rich in polyphenolic compounds, essential fatty acids, dietary fibre and minerals. An idea of valorisation of blueberry and raspberry pomaces resulted in obtaining “healthy” ingredients-concentrates, rich in polyphenols, essential fatty acids, dietary fibre and minerals, which were used to achieve cookie deliciousness. In addition, My Berry Cookie consumption provides beneficial effects on human health. A dietary intervention study conducted on healthy women confirmed that a month long consumption of a daily portion of My Berry Cookie improved their lipid status.
