The Flavor Trends roundtable has become one of the most sought after breakout sessions at The Flavor Experience year after year.
Usually situated in the warm southern California sunshine with a skillfully crafted cocktail (or mocktail!) from our JWU students, Flavor’s Katie Ayoub and Cathy Nash Holley invite participants to share their menu insights surrounding upcoming and trending ingredients and flavors.
This collaboration allows attendees to learn about different applications, real-world examples and creates conversation around each trend to help brainstorm new ideas.
Have you participated in a roundtable at a past Flavor Experience? What do you think? ⬇️
This year’s Flavor Experience was a true celebration of innovation — from trend-forward ingredients and global flavors to the invaluable connections made with industry friends, both new and familiar.
Take a look at the highlights below, and be sure to save the date for next year: August 2-4 in Newport Beach, California!
Huge thanks to Jarrett Rogers for bringing the energy of the event to life in this video.
