The facility features a new kitchen. “In our center, we can eliminate the guesswork and perfect the formulation to help our customers efficiently market products that resonate with consumers,” stated Charles Barber, technical sales and applications manager, nutrition and health, for BASF, North America. “Whether it’s baking a cake with more volume, creating a nutrition bar with better texture and taste, or adding an appealing colorant to a beverage, we are your one-stop kitchen.”
Barber added that the team at the Tarrytown facility is especially focused on new delivery forms for dietary supplements, as well as “next generation” snack foods, baked goods, beverages, and dairy products.
