    Bringing Functional Food Innovation to Life

    Sweet Escape was showcased at in-cosmetics Asia 2026 in Bangkok, where visitors to the Jebsen & Jessen Ingredients booth could taste both soft-serve prototypes.

    The tasting experience demonstrated how ingredients such as probiotics, prebiotics, dietary fibre, astaxanthin, and collagen peptides can move beyond technical concepts and into real food applications.
