Everything between your recipe and a finished case
Gourmet Blending provides custom blending, research and product development, private-label manufacturing, packaging and labeling, contract packaging, and fulfillment -- as one connected process or as standalone services.
Custom Blending
We manufacture dry-food products to your specifications. Depending on where your project starts, we can:
- Produce your product from your own formula
- Modify an existing formula to change flavor, cost, or performance
- Match an existing product already on the market
- Develop a completely new blend from concept
Every batch is produced to the same specification each time, so the product your customers reorder is the product they tried the first time.
Product Development
Not every project starts with a finished formula. Our development team can help with:
- Recipe creation from a concept, flavor profile, or product brief
- Recipe matching against a product you already know and like
- Reformulation for cost, shelf life, or ingredient changes
- Ingredient sourcing and supplier coordination
- Cost-reduction review of an existing formula
- Cleaner-ingredient options, evaluated on a per-formula basis
Private Label
There are two ways to work with us under a private-label arrangement:
| Existing Product | Custom Product |
|---|---|
| Select a formula already in our line and put your brand and label on it. Fastest path to market. | We develop and manufacture a formula exclusively for your company, produced only under your brand. |
Both approaches are available at low minimums, so a first order does not require a national-account commitment.
Packaging & Labeling
We package in retail-ready or bulk formats and handle labeling in-house:
- Bagging, bottling, and tamper-resistant sealing
- Label printing and label application
- Packaging consultation to match your channel and shelf format
- New label design, or preparing an existing design for production
- Template selection and print quantities aligned to your production order
Contract Packaging
Already have a product manufactured elsewhere -- or by us? We co-pack customer-supplied or Gourmet Blending-manufactured dry products, including:
- Mixing and filling
- Bagging and bottling
- Labeling and tagging
- Packing and shipping
Fulfillment
Once your product is packaged, we can pack and ship it toward its next destination -- a retailer, a distributor, or directly to your customers -- so the finished case does not stall between production and delivery.
