City
Flavour partner for London brands
London anchors southwestern Ontario's dairy, food and beverage manufacturing economy with major dairy plants, bakery operations and a growing craft brewing and cider scene. The region's agricultural base supports value-added food and ingredient manufacturers.
A project brief for southwestern Ontario dairy, ice cream and pilot-scale beverages should identify the product base, processing conditions, intended market and flavour target.
London's food economy rests on southwestern Ontario's agricultural base: major dairy processing, bakery operations, and a craft brewing and cider scene that draws on the region's fruit and grain. Dairy is the standout category here — ice cream, yogurt and flavoured-milk programs where cream, vanilla and fruit systems have to survive pasteurisation and frozen storage without fading.
Sectors we serve in London
London project possibilities: cream, vanilla, fruit. Compare candidates in the actual fat level and process, including pasteurisation or freezing where relevant.
London project possibilities: bakery and confectionery. Assess flavour after baking and through the intended shelf life; clarify allergen and label constraints.
London project possibilities: functional beverages. Specify pH, sweetness, carbonation and heat treatment before comparing flavour candidates.
London project possibilities: sauce. Define salt, fat, cooking conditions and label goals; verify suitability in the finished recipe.
London project possibilities: plant-based foods. Evaluate the protein base, off-notes and desired flavour in a bench trial rather than assuming masking or texture results.
London project possibilities: e-liquids. Ask whether a candidate is available and appropriate for the intended PG/VG base and market; food use does not establish inhalation safety or legal suitability.
London project possibilities: livestock feed. Specify species, life stage, feed processing and proposed dose; assess intake in an appropriate trial without assuming performance gains.
London project possibilities: pet food. Define species, format and in-mix or surface application; test acceptance rather than treating palatability as assured.

Frequently asked questions
Which applications can I discuss for my London project?
Explore applications including Dairy, Bakery, Beverages. Share your recipe and process to discuss a suitable profile. Available formats and documents must be confirmed for each reference.
How quickly can a sample reach London?
For delivery to London, confirm product availability and a destination-specific dispatch and transit estimate with the Edmonton office; provide London pilot facility or production plant and trial receiving window. Timing depends on the selected product and transport arrangements and is not guaranteed. Confirm sample availability and any applicable costs before dispatch. The minimum production order is 5 kg.
Do you work with small London brands or only large processors?
Both. We support emerging London brands from the 5 kg production minimum upward, then scale with the same technical contacts across Ontario. Manufacturers throughout Central Canada get the same bilingual support.
What should I clarify for Do your dairy flavours survive pasteurisation and frozen storage?
Test the selected flavour in the actual London dairy recipe through the planned heat cycle and frozen storage. Record temperature, holding time, fat level and sensory change; stability cannot be inferred from the flavour description.
What should I clarify for support pilot-plant trials in the London area?
Provide the London pilot facility’s equipment, batch size, process and trial objective. Ask what review or evaluation support is available; attendance, line work and trial dates must be agreed separately.
Do you ship flavours directly to London?
For delivery to London, confirm product availability and a destination-specific dispatch and transit estimate with the Edmonton office; provide London pilot facility or production plant and trial receiving window. Timing depends on the selected product and transport arrangements and is not guaranteed. Share your delivery address and required documents so our Canadian office can confirm the arrangements for your selected reference.
What should I check for Canadian labelling?
Request the ingredient, allergen and declaration information for the selected flavour. The appropriate label wording depends on the specific ingredient and finished recipe; have your regulatory reviewer confirm the declaration for your product and market.
What's your minimum order quantity?
The minimum production order is 5 kg. Evaluation samples are separate from production orders; confirm sample availability, any applicable costs and pricing for your selected reference with our Canadian office.
