Food & Beverage Preservation: Our nature-inspired portfolio of novel preservatives are label-friendly alternatives to synthetic preservatives. Partner with Blue California to discover solutions for shelf-life, food safety, nutrition, consumer appeal, color stability, taste, and freshness. 

Functional Nutrition: While 75% of global consumers are seeking functional food and beverages, 89% prefer this format over dietary supplements. We are experts in nutritional ingredients and can help guide you to create functional foods and beverages with enhanced nutrition using our nature-based solutions to support holistic health. 

Encapsulation: Blue California’s FineCap^™ encapsulation systems provide protection of active ingredients from degradation resulting from exposure to environmental factors such as water, oxygen, heat, and light. It is an effective way to preserve and protect active food ingredients, such as flavors, polyunsaturated fatty acids, probiotics, natural pigments, vitamins, antioxidants, etc., to control their release rate, and/or to mask their unpleasant odor or taste. It’s one of the greatest opportunities to expand brands’ potential. 

Flavor & Taste Modulation:  Blue California’s taste solutions division, Sensegen, offers unique flavors produced via bioconversion and fermentation that are 100% natural and sustainable to satisfy the most diverse and discerning palates. Sensegen is also an expert in taste modulation systems to meet your needs in terms of bitter-blocking, linger control, textural balance, sweetness enhancement, mouthfeel, and astringency reduction. Today, consumers increasingly demand authentic, health and wellness products developed with more clean and natural ingredients they can feel good about buying. That’s why we formulate our products differently. We can help deliver better-for-you products with people and the planet in mind, with great flavors that your customers will crave.
