At Thymly Products, we take pride in our dedication to producing baking ingredients that meet the highest standards of quality, safety, and consumer expectations. Our ongoing certification by the Orthodox Union (OU) Kosher—the world’s largest and most trusted kosher certification agency—underscores our commitment to delivering products that not only meet strict kosher guidelines but also embody the clean-label values increasingly demanded by today’s market.

In this interview with OU, Trey Muller-Thym, President and Owner of Thymly Products, shares how his company is approaching red dye replacements from a baker’s perspective—and why he believes their size, flexibility, and customer commitment make all the difference. 

The Power of OU Kosher Certification

The OU Kosher certification is recognized worldwide as a mark of rigorous quality and integrity. With over 1.3 million products certified across more than 15,000 facilities in 105 countries, the OU seal is a trusted symbol that reassures customers and elevates product credibility. For Thymly, attaining OU certification means more than fulfilling kosher requirements—it reflects our commitment to transparency, safety, and excellence in ingredient production.

Innovating with Natural Red Dye Replacements

One of the standout challenges in the baking goods industry today is the transition away from artificial colors, particularly red dyes, toward natural alternatives that meet clean-label standards without compromising product performance or appearance. Thymly is at the forefront of this innovation.

Trey Muller-Thym shared insights into the company’s approach to red dye replacements from a baker’s perspective. His view emphasizes how Thymly’s unique combination of size, flexibility, and unwavering customer commitment enables the development of natural color solutions that work effectively in real-world baking applications.

This approach allows Thymly to meet evolving consumer preferences while maintaining the visual appeal and consistency essential for successful baked products.

Why Size and Flexibility Matter

According to Trey Muller-Thym, Thymly’s size offers a strategic advantage: not too large to be inflexible, but sufficiently scaled to invest in research, development, and personalized customer service. This balance lets the company respond quickly to industry trends and innovate tailored ingredient solutions.

Their hands-on dedication ensures that each product is tested and refined to perform flawlessly in commercial baking environments, meeting the nuanced needs of bakers worldwide.

As consumer awareness and demand for clean-label foods grow, Thymly Products remains committed to leading the way by embracing certifications like Orthodox Union Kosher and pioneering ingredient innovations. Our mission is to support bakers in delivering delicious, visually appealing products that align with modern health values and kosher standards alike.
