Dr. Oetker — Moments

New Dr. Oetker Shaker mixes were introduced to the Canadian market in February 2009 to meet the growing consumer need for simpler, quicker and “better for you” baking and dessert products. Before introducing the Shaker line, Dr. Oetker Canada also evaluated the environmental impact of the packaging. Our evaluation confirmed that a plastic bottle is the most effective packaging we can utilize. The packaging (bottle) acts as the “mixing bowl.” Liquid is added to the mix, making alternative materials, such as paper or cardboard unfeasible. The materials were specifically designed to be recyclable with minimal impact on the environment. All aspects of the Dr. Oetker Shaker packaging are recyclable: bottle, cap, label and cases. Most cities across Canada currently have programs that recycle the type of plastic used in our bottles. Those municipalities that are not yet able to recycle this packaging are working to achieve that objective in the near future.

Product shelf life is 18 months. Check your Shaker package for a "best before" date.

Yes, look for the best before date next to the bar code on the label.

Both prebiotics and probiotics can restore the balance of bacteria in your digestive tract. Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that can be found in various foods. When you eat probiotics, you will add these healthy bacteria to your intestinal tract. Prebiotics are non-digestible foods that make their way through our digestive system and help good bacteria grow and flourish. Prebiotics keep beneficial bacteria healthy.

Prebiotics are the food that make the good bacteria grow. Some of the benefits are: * immune stimulation * enhancement of bowel mobility * reduction of inflammatory or allergic reactions

Most North Americans are not getting enough recommended fibre per day in their diets. The recommended amount is 25 grams per day based on the Health Canada Food Guide. Dr. Oetker Shaker is a source of fibre and contains 2 grams per serving – that’s about 8% of the recommended daily intake! Fibre helps with the following: * gastrointestinal health – maintains regularity * cardiovascular health – proven to reduce blood cholesterol levels, thus helping reduce heart disease * weight management – it fills you up, and breaks down much more slowly than other carbohydrates * cancer – associated with the prevention of specific types of bowel and breast cancer

Shaker’s do contain dairy, egg, soy and gluten. While there are no nuts in our facilities, it is possible that cross contamination might exist from our suppliers.

Storing leftover batter is not recommended, as the quality of your results cannot be guaranteed.

Shaker is the most convenient baking mix yet.
