Tatton Consulting supported City of London-based protein sweetener company Magellan in its successful application to Innovate UK Smart grants: July 2024, awarded £227,459 by Innovate UK for the project BRAZZEIN – Development and Commercialization of Novel Low Calorie Food & Beverage Products.
About the funded R&D project
Sugar reduction has stalled largely because existing non-caloric sweeteners taste wrong. Brazzein is a sweet protein with a profile much closer to sugar. This project moves from production into development and commercialisation of low-calorie food and beverage products built around it.
