Food research and development (R&D) is all about making new food recipes, making changes to prior ones, and finding good methods to do it. It includes things like ingredients research, recipe formulations, tasting the food, and testing the products to make sure they are safe and good for customers’ use.

The R&D process begins with the first process which is developing the idea or consumer needs. After that, recipes are created in the lab. After experiments, the best sample is selected and tested to make sure it’s safe, tastes good, and maintains high quality. Finally, products are approved and moved to the market on a larger scale for sale.

We have managed various projects not only developing new food products but also, reformulating the prior ones, creating functional foods, making nutritional content better, levelling up the taste, and flavour etc, and making sure product longevity.

The time completely depends on what kind of projects you have, it majorly depends on your requirements. Moreover, on average it can take from a few months to over a year to go from the idea process to the final output. Various factors affect the timeline are as finding good ingredients, making process, approval process and increasing production. 

Sensory testing is the main aspect of the new food development process.  It includes maintaining the taste, flavour, smell, and look of a product so that consumers can like this and fulfil their expectations. In this testing experts and regular people taste the food to get detailed feedback.

We maintain strong testing and follow safety and quality rules and regulations to fulfil the standards. Our R&D team works closely with experts who check quality and regulations to do microbial, chemical, and allergen testing. We stay updated with local and global food rules to make sure all products fulfil the necessary legal requirements.

Yes, we can help improve the nutritional profile of existing products by making changes in the recipes to reduce harmful items like sugars, fats, and salts, and including healthy ingredients like whole grains, vitamins, and minerals. Our goal is to increase the health benefits of your products.

Our R&D lab is made with the latest techniques and equipment, like precise scales, mixers, ovens, moisture analyzers, and chambers. We use the best software to create nutritional content, and our facilities are made to mimic real-world production settings, so we can test and get the best results.

The cost of a food R&D project depends on various aspects including the demands of the project, the ingredients types and raw materials needed, the amount of testing and analysis required, the scale of production trials, and the time of the project. A complete proposal will be provided after the first consultation.

Our first consultation is just free. In this meeting, we talk about your project aims, its possibilities, and pre-cost ideas. This helps us know what you need and lets us give you a perfect quote for the R&D work.

Our pricing outlines include costs for finding ingredients, creating recipes, lab testing,  taste testing, prototype production, and making any needed changes. It may also include packaging design, checks regulations, and report generation.
