Recipe development

Does your food brand need modern, unique recipes to showcase your product and captivate your customers?

 

Sharing unique recipe content helps your customers to visualise your product as a staple in their kitchen, and gets them excited about using your product. It's a great opportunity for your brand connect with existing customers on a deeper level, and educate new customers about your product and how they can use it.

 

I specialise in crafting innovative and original mouthwatering recipes tailored to the specific needs of boutique New Zealand food brands. With my passion for food and experience in the food industry, I can help elevate your brand with fresh, seasonal recipes.

​

My recipe development service is:

  1. Customised and creative
    I understand that every brand has its own unique identity and target audience so I work closely with you to understand your brand's vision, values, and flavour preferences.

  2. Based on experience
    With years of experience in the food industry, I possess an in-depth understanding of flavour profiles, food trends, and consumer preferences. Whether you're looking for modern twists on classic recipes or specialised dietary options, I have the knowledge and expertise to deliver exceptional results.

  3. Versatile and flexible
    Whether your brand operates in the vegan, gluten-free, or organic food space - or somewhere in the middle - I can develop recipes that align with your brand's requirements. I can create recipes that accommodate dietary restrictions without compromising on taste or quality.

  4. Collaborative
    You know your product best so I work closely with you and value your input and feedback throughout the recipe process. I aim to build strong partnerships and foster a creative environment where your brand's aspirations come to life. Your satisfaction is my top priority, and I want to exceed your expectations with every recipe I develop.

 

My recipe development process

  • Consultation: I begin by conducting a comprehensive consultation to understand your brand's goals, target audience, and culinary preferences. This allows me to gather essential information and establish a solid foundation for the recipe development process.

  • Concept development: based on the insights gathered during the consultation, I brainstorm ideas and create unique recipe concepts. I consider factors such as flavor profiles, ingredients, seasonality, cooking techniques, and presentation, ensuring that each recipe aligns perfectly with your brand identity.

  • Recipe creation: once the concepts are approved, I get to work crafting the recipe, ensuring that each ingredient, measurement, and cooking instruction is accurate and concise. A further round of testing and refinement ensures the final recipe is successful every time.

  • Delivery and support: I provide you with the final written recipe in your preferred format, including detailed instructions and ingredient lists. I offer ongoing support as needed, answering any queries you may have and providing guidance.
