Product Development

As our name implies, every product we supply has been custom formulated for a particular customer for a particular application. California Custom Fruits and Flavors does not supply off-the-shelf stock items. Our product development staff is made up of skilled technicians and degreed food scientists, who are extremely technical, but also creative. They are qualified scientists, but at the same time, culinary artists. Their application knowledge includes technical familiarity with cultured dairy products, frozen desserts, industrial bakery goods, beverage formulations, and food service applications. In other words, our scientists understand exactly how our products will work in yours. We have found that much success is achieved when our technologists are working directly with you.

Our product development group is known for quick turnaround time on sample requests, and for completing documentation requests faster than the industry standard. Should a particular sample be approved, our pilot plant allows us to provide a small production batch to be tested on your factory line.
