ELIANE®
ELIANE® waxy potato starch for high viscosity, stable texture and efficient processing
ELIANE® is a range of waxy potato starches developed for food manufacturers that need high viscosity, smooth texture, clean flavour and reliable processing performance. ELIANE® can support cold-process preparation, bake stability, freeze-thaw stability, salt tolerance, water binding, dough sheetability and snack expansion. Its high amylopectin content enables manufacturers to use it in low dosages and to create creamy, smooth, shiny, crispy or crunchy textures across bakery, dairy, savoury fillings, soups, sauces, meat products and snacks.
Toolbox for different applications
Depending on the application, ELIANE® can provide:
- Rapid viscosity development in cold water
- High and stable viscosity
- Smooth, pipeable texture
- Bake and freeze-thaw stability
- Salt tolerance

Avebe’s application specialists help identify the most suitable ELIANE® solution based on the formulation, production process and desired finished-product texture.
Baked goods
ELIANE® waxy potato starches enhance biscuit dough, improving sheetability while allowing manufacturers to work with less water. The ratio between native and pregelatinised ELIANE® grades can be adjusted to fine-tune hardness and crispness. In Avebe’s savoury biscuit concept, ELIANE® supported a soft but crisp bite without a floury mouthfeel and was compatible with standard sheeting and laminating lines. The product also allowed baking time and temperature to be reduced without sacrificing the required texture.
Soups, sauces and dressings
Eliane® allows you to reduce fat content in soups, sauces and dressings without sacrificing the creamy, indulgent mouthfeel consumers expect. High salt tolerance ensures consistent performance across savoury applications.
Meat products
ELIANE®’s high amylopectin content delivers unique water binding, texture and expansion characteristics in formed meat, sausages and pâté. It offers a cost-effective, environmentally friendly alternative to corn starch or soya that retains full product quality.
Snacks and bakery
In extruded and baked snacks, ELIANE® provides controlled oil uptake, enhanced expansion and a softer, crispier bite. In bakery, it ensures stability, a shiny clear appearance in fruit fillings and a smooth, creamy mouthfeel in instant desserts and bakery creams.
