Food research & development, built on 15+ years of hands-on formulation experience.
Have a great idea for a food product but not sure how to move it from concept to launch — or a product already on the market that's suddenly giving you trouble? I've spent the last 15 years working through exactly that process, across products ranging from nutrition bars and beverages to baked goods, confections, extruded snacks, and cultured dairy.
That experience built a broad and deep expertise in functional ingredients and how they interact within different food systems. Food Function Unbound exists to be your partner in working through the development process as efficiently as possible — whether that means moving from ideation to launch, or solving the technical issue that's holding your product back right now.
A proven path from concept through launch — and beyond.
Market research and need identification to sharpen the idea before any development work begins.
Ingredient procurement and early formulation work to prove the concept is achievable.
Building out the formula and creating working prototypes.
Scale-up optimization trialing and pre-production trials to prepare for a real production run.
Troubleshooting, line extensions, and reformulation for flavor, cost, or producibility improvements — plus secondary supplier search and evaluation as needed.
