ANNEX The Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/2470 is corrected as follows: (a) in Table 1 (Authorised novel foods), the following entry is inserted between the entry for ‘Phosphated maize starch’ and the entry for ‘Phosphatidylserine from fish phospholipids’: ‘ Phosphated wheat starch Specified food category Maximum levels The designation of the novel food on the labelling of the foodstuffs containing it shall be “Phosphated wheat starch”.’ Baked bakery products 15 % Pasta Breakfast cereals Cereal bars (b) in Table 2 (Specifications), the following entry is inserted between the entry for ‘Phosphated maize starch’ and the entry for ‘Phosphatidylserine from fish phospholipids’: ‘ Phosphated wheat starch Description: Phosphated distarch phosphate produced from wheat starch (phosphated wheat starch) is a chemically modified resistant starch derived from wheat starch by combining chemical treatments to create phosphate cross-links within and between individual starch molecules. The novel food ingredient is a white or near white free flowing powder.
