Natural
Colours & Flavours for Kids
With so much focus
recently by the media on the health
of childrens lunches, what better
time to look at developing Kids products
that are Natural in colour and flavour.
We have a wide range of natural colours from Phytone and
a new range of natural flavours from Symrise;
from everyday fruit flavours like banana, apple, kiwifruit, lemon,
and blueberry, to the more indulgent caramels, chocolates and
creams.
 If
you would like to sample our natural flavours
or colours please contact your Hawkins Watts
New Zealand account manager to arrange.

Hydrocolloid Workshop
Feedback from our Hydrocolloid Workshop in July was brilliant. A lot
of information was covered on many different hydrocolloids. Of particular
note and interest was the opportunity to have a hands on play and experiment
with samples.
Thanks to those who participated and we hope to have more ingredient
workshops next year.
Any requests for topics for future workshops – please let Hawkins Watts
New Zealand know.
