Smoke Without Compromise: Label Flavours with Wood Heritage Smoke

Smoke has been a fundamental part of cooking for centuries, and its appeal is stronger than ever. Today, smoke flavour is a top trend in the snack market, with barbecue ranking as the third most popular snack flavour worldwide. Showing that we are on the edge of time – we created our new snack concept, called Smokewood Heritage. It offers a unique and innovative way to transform smoked everyday snacks into a differentiated flavour experiences.

Smokewood Heritage: Unique Snack Blends

Our new Smokewood Heritage snack mix concept is a celebration of rich, smoky flavours drawn from the most popular wood types. Each mix is carefully crafted to deliver a unique, flavourful experience. Enjoy the delicate Applewood Smoked Cheese, the bold Mesquite Smoked Paprika, or the hearty Hickory Smoked Beef Brisket. From Oak Smoked Glazed Porkchops to Beechwood Flame-Grilled Salmon, every blend offers authentic, distinct tastes perfect for enhancing snack bases.

“Smoked ingredients enable authentic BBQ flavours and creative product development, while evoking nostalgic memories and offering storytelling potential in marketing.”

Wood Smoke: Enhancing Taste & Compliance

Embracing wood heritage smoke in your products offers a sophisticated and compliant alternative to traditional smoke flavourings, especially with the upcoming EU regulations. By labelling your product with "wood heritage smoke," you not only sidestep the restrictions on smoke flavourings but also enhance your product’s appeal. This elegant labelling method aligns with new regulations while preserving the rich, authentic smoke taste that consumers love. Moreover, it adds a touch of heritage and quality to your brand, setting you apart in the market and reinforcing your commitment to innovation and regulatory compliance.

Snack Concept - Curries Around the World

Curry is colour, aroma and emotion in a single bite. It can be creamy and comforting, bright and citrusy, smoky, sweet or intensely fiery. No other flavour travels the globe quite like curry — constantly reinterpreted, yet always recognisable. Our latest snack seasoning concept captures this iconic versatility and transforms it into bold, contemporary snack seasoning profiles that spark curiosity and deliver global appeal.

Snack Concept - Sauce Culture

Sauces are the soul of global street food, dining, and snacking habits. They bring comfort, tang, richness, and heat to every dish they touch. Today’s snackers no longer just want a dip on the side — they want the full, vibrant sauce experience directly on the snack itself. Our latest snack seasoning concept captures this dynamic sauce culture and transforms iconic dip profiles into high-performance seasonings engineered for maximum craveability.
