Indulgent plant-based concepts and delicious, nutritious healthy snacking: Enjoy it all

More than ever, consumers want to enjoy it all – from plant-powered products, to indulgent treats to healthier snacks.

Balancing these needs isn’t an easy job: for example, 25% of consumers remain concerned that plant-based products lack a satisfying taste or texture.¹Which is why at IFT FIRST in Chicago (10-13 July), the DSM Food & Beverage team will be showcasing a range of innovative concepts and solutions that help you deliver winning snacks that deliver on taste, texture and health (for both people and planet). Now you can see, feel, taste – and enjoy - it all for yourself. And here’s how
