Now with two Technology Access Centres, Red River College has even more opportunities to provide industry partners with access to state-of-the art technology, expertise and business support services.

Culinary Research & InnovationCultivating culinary leaders and food innovation through applied research

The Culinary Research & Innovation program at Red River College provides opportunities for students and chef

instructors to engage in applied research projects with the food industry to bring culinary creativity and skills to

various stages of food product development and commercialization.

Located in Winnipeg’s historic Exchange District, the Paterson GlobalFoods Institute (PGI) is home to the

College’s School of Hospitality and Culinary Arts. In this state-of-the-art teaching facility, students acquire skills in

professional baking and pâtisserie, hotel and restaurant management, and professional culinary arts.

Augmenting the research and innovation process for Manitoba food producers, the College’s Culinary Research

& Innovation initiative complements Manitoba’s existing strengths in food research and development by making

its premier recipe and food service application development, testing and demonstration platform available to the

food production industry.

The College’s Culinary Research & Innovation program supports food production firms by providing the following

services and opportunities:

• Product ideation

• Recipe development

• Food service application testing and development

• Food product consumer research trials

• Clinical trial recipe and meal development

• Food service technology development

Each project is designed to meet the specific needs of the industry partner. Culinary researchers work with the

company to create and improve products with a goal to create new economic opportunities for the companies.

Developing Recipes and Expanding MarketsThis fact sheet is part of a series that highlights the work done at Red River College with funding from the Industrial Research Assistance Program (IRAP). To view the full series, visit: rrc.ca/research

The OpportunityMSPrebiotics Inc. developed a prebiotics supplement to support a healthy gut and wanted to explore

international markets to sell their additive.

The College’s IRAP-funded International Market Intelligence service is geared toward small and medium-sized

enterprises. A team of skilled College students, faculty and staff assessed the international prebiotics market,

developed a report, and presented their findings to the company.

This service helped MSPrebiotics identify potential international markets. Forging this relationship between the

College and MSPrebiotics led to new culinary developments as well:

Culinary Research & InnovationMSPrebiotics conducted clinical research at St. Boniface Hospital to prove the effects of their prebiotic on gut

and heart health.

With the health benefits confirmed, the Culinary Research & Innovation team worked with the supplement to

develop student-generated recipes under the guidance of our Research Chef. The results were delicious.

The resulting recipes were used for MSPrebiotic’s inaugural tradeshows and product launches, and are now

shared along with their supplement.
