Food Research Lab R&D Food Lab, a division of Guires, offers multiple areas of expertise for new food product development and recipe & menu development and standardization for food industries / manufacturing and restaurants. Our areas of expertise include new and existing product development, reverse engineering in the areas of listed, recipe and menu development and standardization for restaurants, Nutritional Label assessment and checks, nutrition testing, cooking instructions. As part of the new product development, we provide Shelf life assessment, Physical Testing, and Product Eval
We will check the availability of ingredients (e.g., available for purchase year-round or seasonally) process and techniques to mimic the competitor product. This needs secondary research, and while reviewing the techniques to obtain the shape and consistency of the product, we might need to choose the best method based on the production costs, resources and time involved for final manufacturing. We also need to finalize the necessary equipment, facilities, and processes needed to manufacture a product (i.e., technologically feasibility). We will also share the final food preparation costs considering raw ingredients, fuel, electricity, utilities without packaging on post-completion of the project. In addition, the final product will be further tested with different local recipes to ascertain whether any further product modifications are necessary.
Shelf longevity and packaging are critical issues. Shelf life is the determination of how long a product will hold its quality as perceived by customers. The shelf life of a product is essential when considering distribution channels before reaching the consumer. However, we will conduct a basic shelf life of 90 days under refrigerated conditions and without refrigeration.
