Cornelius Launches Its 'Functional Food Toolkit' At Fie
The Health and Food division of Cornelius Group plc is launching its unique Functional Food Toolkit that will assist food manufacturers who want to start developing functional foods. The toolkit is the result of many years experience of the industry and a growing awareness that although many food manufacturers want to develop different products, they can often lack key elements of expertise or simply find it difficult to know where to start.
Joy Thomas, Technical Sales Manager of Health and Food explains:
“There are lots of creative ideas ‘locked up’ in the minds of small to medium manufacturers, what we want to do is simply be the catalyst for releasing and helping them to realise these ideas.”
The toolkit contains samples of functional ingredients that contribute towards a healthy digestion, skin and eyes, energy and metabolism boost and to control appetite. To aid in formulating, there is an instructive CD containing examples for beverages, dairy, ice-cream, confectionery etc. On a practical note there is information about how to construct marketing and technical presentations, as well as expert advice regarding legislation and information about making claims for products. We have also included some packaging examples based on special effect pigments to give your product "shelf appeal".
As well as the toolkits, visitors to the Cornelius stand K47 are invited to participate in a free prize draw competition to experience the Jamie Oliver Fifteen Restaurant. The prize includes a dining room tasting menu for two people in either London or Cornwall. This is an opportunity to sample a selection of favourite dishes with a specially created wine package, pairing individual wines with each of the dishes.
Requests for a Functional Food Toolkit are to be made by visiting the Cornelius Stand.
Visitors to the stand will also be able to discuss their own requirements with the Health and Food team that has a demonstrable track record of success in NPD, a superior knowledge of healthy food issues, formulation and legislation and is supported by Cornelius’s technology centre based at their modern facility in Bishop’s Stortford, England.
