“The flavour challenges that once felt impossible are now solved.”
Salvatore Notaro, Managing Director @ Vivo Life
Great Ingredients, Tough Taste
At Vivo Life, we use plant based ingredients in our supplements. While this is core to our values, it created a huge challenge when it came to taste.
Without relying on artificial sweeteners, fillers, or unnecessary additives, it was incredibly difficult to make our formulas taste great while staying true to our clean-label philosophy.
Flavours Meet Brand Values
Manon brought a structured, diligent, and science-led approach that helped us uncover exactly what was needed to overcome this challenge.
Manon's passion and deep knowledge of food science allowed us to test and refine natural solutions that we simply couldn’t have achieved on our own.
Manon guided us through a clear process that made decision-making much easier, removing a lot of biases, and always rooted in what was best for our brand.
From Frustration to Flavour Confidence
The flavour challenges that once felt impossible are now solved and feedback so far from customers is positive.
We are able to have more fun focusing on new flavours profiles rather than be stuck in circles trying to improve the broken flavours we had.
