You love your product, but does your customer?

Conducting sensory analysis provides insights on consumer preferences which can be incorporated into an iterative product development process. Ultimately, this saves time and money through small-scale proof of concept.  Our team has extensive experience in conducting sensory evaluation, including a Certified Research Chef with over 30 years’ experience in all aspects of culinary & food production, and can help you gain an expert understanding of every aspect of your product’s sensory experience.

Sensory Testing & Consumer Research

• Sensory Science focuses on the evaluation of food & beverage products, and how humans react with all their senses to what they are consuming: analyzing the “organoleptic response” of taste test participants can help you hone your product and grow your market share.
• There are many different testing options when it comes to having your product evaluated via Sensory Analysis: we do on-site tastings with our internal team; walk-up or pop-up with our culinary staff and students; or moderated focus groups with targeted participants from our tester database.
• We can customize your  tasting group based on preferred demographics, including location, age, gender, and other factors in our participant database: we have hundreds of members in our CSK sensory panel community who are ready to try your product today. Get qualitative and quantitative consumer feedback through focus groups, web surveys and other tools.
• You don’t need to have your product be developed by CSK, to access our Sensory and Consumer Science services: we work with you and YOUR product, to curate a sensory test to get the customer feedback you want: market comparisons, new flavour trends, ingredient substitutions and more!
