**RECENT PROJECTS**

NEW PRODUCTS FROM P.E.MEAD; Audrey and Simon Mead have developed a new range of salad dressings. A classic vinaigrette, a creamy honey & mustard and a balsamic dressing form the range.

Audrey has been working with P.E.Mead & Son's for two years. Initially, Audrey advised Mead on their Food Safety Management system, but then she was asked to assist them in the development of a range of infused oils.

Using her product development expertise, Audrey sourced the extracts and prepared samples for the team at Mead to taste. Once the products were approved, Audrey carried out a HACCP update and reviewed the systems to ensure that all of the required process controls were in place. Following the launch, Audrey also created recipes using the new oils and their success has been going from strength to strength.
