A Step Toward a Cleaner Label

Over the years, high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) has made its way into many of the  foods we eat. It is similar to regular sugar but sweeter and less expensive. Manufacturers use HFCS as a way to reduce costs and increase profits. However, studies have shown that excessive amounts of HFCS can be linked to health problems such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, and high blood pressure. When consumers realized this, they started looking more closely at labels and asking more questions about ingredients. Bakeries and cake manufacturers came to Hanan Products about wanting to omit high fructose corn syrup from their ingredient lists.

While some of our products do contain HFCS, we developed an icing for those that are trying to make changes toward a cleaner label. Thus, Top ‘n Fil Premium was born. “With trends toward clean label foods, Top ‘n Fil Premium fills a need in the marketplace.” said Chief Operating Officer, Ryan Hanan. Top ‘n Fil Premium is just like our popular vanilla ready-to-whip icing - Top ‘n Fil Vanilla Cremosa, except Top ‘n Fil Premium contains real sugar and no HFCS. It is similar to a traditional buttercream, but has the same characteristics of whipped cream. Although it does contain dairy, it has excellent shelf life (up to 5 days ambient domed).

In the interest of extending our premium product line, we recently released Top ‘n Fil Chocolate Premium. It is perfect for those that normally purchase Hanan’s Top ‘n Fil Chocolate Intense, but are looking for something without HFCS. It has the same rich chocolate taste!

Bakers will feel better knowing they’re using premium products and consumers will feel better indulging. Top ‘n Fil Premium and Top ‘n Fil Chocolate Premium are available to add to your order immediately.
