What an incredible achievement for Scelta Mushrooms! Your commitment to creating innovative solutions while maintaining quality and taste is truly impressive. A well-deserved win—excited to see what’s next for your team!
Proud of our SIAL Innovation Award for Fungible®! 🌟 Today was the official SIAL Innovation ceremony and we are incredibly proud to have won the Innovation Award in our category with Fungible®! 🎉 Fungible® is a clean label fat replacer based on the Dutch white button mushroom developed to mimic some important characteristics of fat. The fibrous nature of mushrooms gives texture and balances juiciness & tenderness. The umami components mask off tastes and enhance meaty & savoury notes. With only 15% fat, primarily unsaturated, Fungible offers a low-fat alternative for animal- and plant based products. Making it a perfect tool to improve your nutritional score without compromising the taste experience of the product! 🍄💡 This recognition fuels our drive to keep innovating and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with mushrooms. We believe these little white miracles can transform the food industry and we couldn't be more excited for what’s next! A huge thank you to our amazing team! #Innovation #FoodTech #SIALAwards #SIAL2024 #MushroomInnovation #Fungible #Proud

We had a memorable time at the #NACS conference in Las Vegas! Our booth was bustling, and it was great to meet new people and reconnect with familiar faces. We highlighted our delicious Pinsa bread, perfect for creating light and satisfying combinations, alongside our easy-to-make frozen smoothies—just blend with apple juice or your favorite liquid, crave-worthy Jerky from PREVAIL Jerky. And of course, our Dirty Cookie which is always a crowd favorite! On day two and three, we collaborated with Mama Mancini, Chicken King LLC, and Brookwood Farms BBQ, exploring exciting menu possibilities for stores, food trucks, and restaurants. We're already looking forward to the next show! Connect with us and share how you’d use our products in your culinary creations. Thank you to everyone who visited us.
