Description
Flavour Creations Creamy Coffee is a thoughtfully crafted, ready-to-drink beverage designed to meet the needs of individuals with swallowing difficulties, known as dysphagia. This unique coffee drink is available in three thickness levels, aligning with IDDSI standards: Mildly Thick, Moderately Thick, and Extremely Thick. Each 175mL serving is conveniently packaged in a patented Dysphagia Cup, featuring a sloped rim to reduce the risk of coughing and aspiration, an easy-peel lid, and textured sides for a secure grip.
Nutritional Benefits
This creamy coffee is more than just a comforting drink; it's a nutritional ally. It offers a rich source of protein, calcium, and vitamin D, while being amylase resistant and high in available water to support hydration. Some variants include 27 vitamins and minerals, providing approximately 15g of protein per serving and an energy content of 1.5kcal/mL. The nutritional profile may vary by thickness level, but the commitment to quality remains consistent.
Dietary Suitability
Flavour Creations Creamy Coffee is crafted to accommodate a wide range of dietary needs. It is gluten free, with most variants being lactose free or low lactose, and some being dairy free. Additionally, it is nut free, soy free, vegetarian, and certified Halal and Kosher Dairy. The absence of artificial colours and flavours, along with being a good source of fibre in some variants, further enhances its appeal.
Ingredients
The carefully selected ingredients include water, full cream milk powder (in most variants), hydrolysed collagen (in some variants), sugar, dietary fibre (inulin, in some variants), coffee powder, calcium caseinate (in some variants), thickeners, stabilisers, emulsifiers, food acids, colour, natural flavours, minerals, vitamins, and dextrose (in some variants).
Preparation and Storage
For optimal enjoyment, shake well before use. The beverage can be served chilled or heated in the microwave by removing the foil lid, heating for 30 seconds at 1100W, stirring, and serving at a temperature of 50°C–55°C. Once opened, it should be covered, refrigerated, and consumed within 24 hours. Unopened products should be stored in a cool, dry place, with a shelf life ranging from 10 to 12 months depending on the thickness level.
