About Course

For the project around the label, Intermediate Food Product Development (NPD) takes a plant-based range through the R.6436 naming rules, a label built from the formula and artwork control on a certified factory site.

For the reformulation behind a sugar or sweetener label, Advanced Food Product Development (NPD) works the Health Promotion Levy from an accredited sugar report, designs a sweetener blend by mixture experiment inside the EU limits for flavoured drinks, and builds the EU label for an export drink.

Understand food and beverage labelling regulations and requirements.
Identify mandatory label information, including ingredients, allergens, dates, and quantities.
Apply correct nutrition and health claim labelling principles.
Identify misleading or incorrect labelling and potential compliance issues.
Conduct label checks to ensure accuracy, consumer safety, and legal compliance.
