The secret is in the filling. Always. The more surprising, aromatic and tantalizing it is to the senses, the more it stimulates our taste buds, demanding we sample it. Our fillings are like a box of surprises in each and every product you enjoy.
Spreads
Chocolate comes in many forms, each one equally able to stimulate our senses. But when chocolate or any other flavor comes in a spread, it takes us back to our childhood and the flavors we once loved. Nostalgia comes flooding us through the flavor of the spread.
The spreads come in a pleasant texture that is easy to work with, and are a children’s favorite, since they prefer to take sweet sandwiches to school. The spreads are suitable for all types of bread and buns.
You can always snack on our spreads with a spoon.
For this reason, we at Intergata produce different flavors and a variety of combinations.
Our spreads have a wonderful, rich aroma that can be used to upgrade homemade pastries.

Dessert filling
Although we always eat with our eyes first, which gets the body to anticipate the desired food, when it comes to desserts with fillings, it’s best to bite into them with eyes closed and enjoy the surprise that is no less than a feast for the palate.
Let’s be honest, fillings have character. They can simply pour out when allowed, or remain firm. Each filling bears its own statement, texture and flavor, of course. Almost like us. It cannot be tamed and forced to do what we want it to; it has its own will.
The idea is to know how to match the type of filling to the type of pastry. Sometimes it requires a few trials to reach the pastry we imagined. The process is worth the investment and time.
A heat-resistant filling means that the filling can take a temperature up to 250⁰C without changing its color, taste, or spilling out. A custard filling, on the other hand, is more delicate and is not heat-resistant, making it suitable for pastry filling only once they are baked.
Intergata manufactures no less than 50 different types of filling that serve the dairy, bakery and pastry industries.

Zimkao chips and chocolate chips
Quality baking ingredients is our forte, and aside from the food manufacturing companies we work with, our ingredients are shipped directly to dozens of bakeries across the country as well as private clients.
Whether baking is commercial, boutique or homemade – its look and flavor are based on the accuracy of measuring ingredients and in paying attention to raw ingredients and their specialty.
Zimkao Chips
Baking ingredients are measured by how easy and convenient it is to work with them. Zimkao has a relative advantage in decorating cakes and pastry, how easy it melts and how fast it solidifies. This a non-dairy chocolate substitute perfect for vegans and those allergic to dairy or lactose intolerant. Zimkao is based on cocoa powder as well as solidified vegetable fat. It doesn’t require any special treatment and is easy to work with. It is widely used, especially for glazing desserts and candy and upgrading pastry.
Intergata manufactures Zimkao in a wide variety of flavors and textures. Zimkao is produced in the shape of buds and sold in 12-kg. packages, as chocolate fingers in various lengths and widths of 6-kg. packages as well as blocks of 5-10 kg. each and in cartons.
Chocolate Chips
Many good things happen by chance or unintentionally, and chocolate chips seem to be one of them. History has it that Ruth Wakefield, an American chef born sometime in the early 1900’s, who loved inventing recipes, stumbled upon it by chance. She excelled at her inventions and her pastries were desired by many. So whether a fact or a made-up story, depending on who you ask, Ruth and her husband were the owners of a charming hotel in Massachusetts, famous to this day, and Ruth was in charge of the cooking and baking. One day, she wanted to prepare a specific dessert and realized she was left without any baking chocolate, which meant – no dessert.
So what does a creative woman do? She improvises, of course. Instead of the missing chocolate, she decided to substitute it for a bar of semi-sweet chocolate by Nestle. The result, as said, is known to every household.
Rumors traveled across the U.S. about this woman and her cookies, becoming the most favorite treat package for U.S. soldiers during World War Two. The cookie became a symbol.
The Nestle Company realized that her invention was a business goldmine, and for 1 U.S. dollar, bought the rights for her recipe.
Now back to us.
One of the most favored products coming off our assembly line is chocolate chips.
