Who I work with
From first batch to established brand
- Small-batch makers scaling up. Your recipe works in the kitchen; now it needs to work on bigger equipment.
- First-time founders. You have an idea and a plan; I help turn it into a recipe you can produce.
- Established brands. An extra food scientist for reformulation, troubleshooting and new lines.
- Private-label makers. Store-brand candy that matches the spec, run after run.
- Ingredient suppliers. Candy applications for your ingredients.
- Co-manufacturers. Help with a client’s formula or a problem on the line.
