Discover how ADM’s expanded hops and beer flavour solutions can help your brand to develop beverages bursting with flavour. With our recent acquisition of Totally Natural Solutions, we now have an even bigger portfolio of naturally derived liquid hop extracts and oils for innovative production capabilities that provide brewing efficiency and make your products stand out.


Through our combined portfolio of ingredients and deep expertise in the beverage space, we can help you overcome many hurdles faced by brewers today. While flexibility and consistency are key to successful brewing, this can be difficult when working with whole hops or hop pellets. Thankfully, our hop extracts and oils can help you achieve a true hop aroma, enhance body and refine non-alcoholic beverages that don’t skimp on taste.


With our easy-to-use liquid hop extracts and oils, you can unlock authentic flavour profiles in your final product while still cutting down on beer loss during production in comparison to using whole hops or pellets. Our hop replacement offerings can also partially or fully replace kettle, whirlpool and dry-hop additions that cut down on your filtration times for more efficient brewing.


Download our case study to learn how to harness a powerful portfolio of hop oils, extracts and flavour solutions that crack open endless possibilities to develop truly unique and unforgettable brews with high and consistent quality, bold and authentic flavour, and improved margins and reduced costs.

Ella’s Kitchen launches new children's snack range

Ella’s Kitchen is expanding beyond the baby food aisle with the launch of Ella’s Kitchen Kids, a new product line aimed at children aged 18 months and older.


The launch marks a significant strategic move for the brand as it looks to extend its presence beyond the weaning category and capture growing demand for healthier snack options for toddlers and young children.


Positioned as a “better-for-you” alternative to traditional children’s snacks, the new range combines bold flavours, playful branding and convenient formats with the nutritional standards parents associate with the Ella’s Kitchen brand.


The company said the range was developed in response to changing family eating habits and the lack of minimally processed snack options for older toddlers outside the baby aisle.


Initial products include Ella’s Kitchen Kids Crunchy Stix in Cheese + Onion, Tomato + Basil and Pesto varieties, alongside Ella’s Kitchen Kids Wild Crackers available in Tomato + Oregano, Pea + Basil and Carrot + Rosemary flavours.


Designed for lunchboxes, picnics and snacking occasions, the products are formulated with reduced salt levels and classified as non-HFSS options. According to the company, the Crunchy Stix contain less than 0.04g of salt per pack, while the Crackers contain less than 0.05g per serving.


Emma Wood, Senior Brand Manager at Ella’s Kitchen, said: “Ella’s Kitchen Kids is about recognising that the journey doesn’t stop at baby food. As little ones grow, their tastes, independence and routines all change – but parents still want options they can feel good about.”


The launch also signals Ella’s Kitchen’s wider ambitions within the children’s snacking market, with additional products and categories expected later this year.


Wood added that the company aims to help “raise the standards of the kids’ food category” by balancing taste, convenience and nutrition.
