Oil-based release agents
EXPERTISE IN RELEASE AGENTS
Our oil-based release agents are engineered for consistent, high-volume depanning performance. Formulated to provide uniform coverage across pan geometries, they help bakers deliver virtually reject-free finished products — run after run. We offer a full range of viscosity profiles and base oil blends to match your process conditions and application method.
OptiRelease™ — next-generation release
A new suite of release agents designed for industrial bakers. The OptiRelease portfolio can improve release strength by up to four times that of canola oil alone, setting new standards in baking efficiency and pan longevity.
|
OptiRelease Bread Consistent high-performance release, extended pan life, and waste reduction for industrial bread lines. Available variants: NB, AF, NG. |
|
OptiRelease Cake Superior release performance and reduced operational downtime for cake and batter-based production lines. Available variants: NB, AF, NG. |
|
OptiRelease Pizza Coming soon. |
Our broader oil-based portfolio also covers: breads, cakes, pizzas, divider oils, flavored oils, trough greases, slicer blade oils, waffles & cones, nutritional bar release, band oven oils, and specialty release oils.
Amarnakote™ water-based release agents
Amarnakote is a family of water-based release agents engineered for conveyors and high-heat applications. The water-based formula actively conditions production surfaces over time — reducing baked-on buildup, cutting oily overspray on floors, and lowering the frequency of manual pan cleaning. The result is a safer production environment and measurable gains in line uptime.
|
Amarnakote for tunnel ovens Ideal for pretzels, bagels, pizzas, buns, and rolls. Keeps hearth plates clean and eliminates downtime by conditioning production surfaces for a cleaner, more consistent release — all day, every day. |
|
Amarnakote for ready-to-eat cereals Conditions production surfaces to eliminate material handling issues, reduce downtime and waste, and lower labor costs for high-volume RTE cereal lines. |
|
Amarnakote for dried fruits Prevents fruit from sticking to belt and to each other. Reduces waste and downtime while improving coloration and moisture content consistency. |
|
Amarnakote for meat snacks & jerky Prevents jerky from clinging to racks and to each other, reducing downtime, waste, and labor costs for meat snack production lines. |
|
ALSO IN OUR RELEASE AGENT PORTFOLIO Divider oil (Exalube) for consistent dough handling and extended pan glaze life; food-grade white oils for a variety of food contact applications (USP/NF certified). |

Stabilizers
Our stabilizers preserve texture, structure, and moisture from the production line to the store shelf — preventing separation and extending shelf life in glazes, icings, and batter-based products.
PERMA-FROST™ LINE
Perma-Frost™ is our line of super-concentrated powdered stabilizers designed to keep glazes and icings looking and tasting perfect from the production line to the store shelf.
|
Perma-Frost Super-concentrated powdered stabilizer for donut glazes and honey bun icings. Prevents cracking, separation, and weeping to keep your glazes looking perfect from production to shelf. |
|
Perma-Frost No-Boil Agar-based stabilizer that eliminates the boil step entirely — improving production safety, increasing line speed, and delivering crack-free, weep-resistant glazes with extended shelf life. Ideal for high-volume donut operations and commercial bakeries where safety and throughput are critical. |
|
Stabilgel Plus™ Concentrated stabilizer solution formulated for snack cakes, honey buns, and other baked or fried applications. |
Emulsifiers
Emulsifiers are the workhorses of bakery production — blending ingredients, enhancing shortening performance, and interacting with flour to improve dough stability, volume, and crumb structure. Vantage® Food offers both hydrated emulsifier solutions and base emulsifier chemistries.
HYDRATED EMULSIFIERS
|
Simply Kake™ Versatile emulsifier solution for cakes and sweet goods. Promotes even baking, ideal crumb structure, and superior process tolerance — specifically formulated to support clean label initiatives. |
|
Kake Mate™ Promotes even baking, ideal crumb structure, and operational tolerance for cakes and sweet goods production. |
|
Proform CS™ Formulated for yeast-raised baked goods — improves dough consistency, baking uniformity, and shelf life extension. |
BASE EMULSIFIERS — LUMISORB™ FAMILY
|
Lumisorb™ SMS (Sorbitan monostearate) A non-ionic emulsifier derived from sorbitol, used for aeration, texture, and stability across a range of baked goods and icings. |
|
Lumisorb PSMS-20 (Polysorbate 60) Non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier that aids oil-water blending, supports aeration in cake batters, and prevents water separation in icings. |
|
Lumisorb PSMO-20 (Polysorbate 80) Water-soluble non-ionic surfactant used as an emulsifier, dispersant, and solubilizer across food processing applications. |
Shortenings
Vantage® Food shortenings are expertly formulated to deliver the tender, crumbly texture your customers expect — coating flour particles to prevent tough gluten networks and contributing to mouthfeel, flavor, and finished product quality across pastries, cakes, cookies, and breads.
|
Satin™ Liquid Shortening Blend Enhanced texture and flavor performance across a range of baking applications. |
|
Satin Gold™ Liquid Shortening w/LN Formulated to resist polymerization and oxidation buildup, delivering enhanced texture and flavor with improved fry oil longevity. |
