What is the secret process for turning your food product idea into a shelf-stable manufactured item? Having a business plan is one thing, but the magic happens in the food science laboratory! The technical part of the food industry has always been a mystery because most food scientists work directly for food companies and are not allowed to share proprietary methods or know-how. 

As a 25-year veteran food scientist, I have helped many aspiring food entrepreneurs understand the technical steps needed to bring an idea from kitchen to market. 

The Food Business Tool Kit for Entrepreneurs explores these concepts:

• Sourcing ingredients
• Finding co-manufacturers
• Creating food prototypes using weights and percentages (no tablespoons and teaspoons!)
• Avoiding food safety disasters like microbial growth

The Food Business Tool Kit for Entrepreneurs guides entrepreneurs through the technical process of formulating a commercial recipe, which is very different from the recipe you are making at home. This book gets into the nitty-gritty, hard-to-find information related to FDA regulations, food safety, shelf life testing, and how to create a “formula”. 

It is not possible to find all the information in this book online. Most of it comes directly from experiences working in the food industry. I am happy to share this hard-to-find information with you in an organized, step-by-step process.
