MINDBLOWING PRODUCT INNOVATION FOR INCREDIBLE FOOD & BEVERAGE BRANDS

From concept to delivery, we juice innovation throughout every step.

OUR CLIENTS

We are a full-service growth and product development agency, bringing innovation to all things edible: food, beverage and all the weird and wonderful in between.

Our Work

Branded Fruit

Market:

UK

Client:

Patron

For national Paloma day our brief was to hero the humble grapefruit for an on trade activation with Patron and Simmons cocktail bars. The client wanted to ensure that every Paloma made with Patron tequila was garnished with a branded price of dried grapefruit. Not only that, but the grapefruit had been taken through a dying process before dehydrating. Once garnished in the cocktail, a slow bleed of pink dye slowly cascaded around the ice.

CBD + Apoptogenic Gummies

Market:

UK

Client:

Yield CBD

The brief was to develop three new flavoured gummies that incorporated a range of active vitamins, adaptogens & CBD. We developed this range using vegan setting agents and delivered on the brief using active nootropics and CBD that had been approved under the Novel Food Act regulations. We achieved an 18 month shelf life and managed the project from product development through manufacturing sourcing and supply chain management through to delivery of packaged goods.

Burn Book

Market:

UK

Client:

Smokehead

The brief was to develop a fun way of adding value to a straight whisky serve. We developed a ‘ready to smoke’ booklet made for Whisky serves, replacing the need for any equipment. This was delivered as an A5, porous, paper booklet where each page was soaked in custom Smokehead essential oils. To serve the customers, a page would be torn from the book, burnt and placed under a short glass to ‘smoke’ the inside, in preparation for a unique Whisky serve.

Edible Paint

Market:

Global

Client:

Bombay Sapphire

The brief was to create an ‘artistic-inspired’ flavoured, coloured & functional garnish, suitable for a G & T. The aim was to use this product as the lead marketing tool in their overarching campaign ‘Stir Creativity’. We developed the product with over 10 flavour iterations. We achieved an 18 month shelf life and oversaw the packaging to ensure the product could be exported to all requested global markets.

Bleeding Fruit Garnishes

Market:

US

Client:

Tanqueray

The brief was to infuse a subtle colour + flavour into the G & T to work for different events/ seasons and campaigns. We developed a proprietary technique to infuse the dehydrated fruits with strong, natural, pigmented colours and a wide range of delicious fruit flavours. The products achieved a 24 month shelf life and were packaged for global distribution.

Shimmer Droplets

Market:

Global

Client:

Absolut + Kahlua

The brief was to create a garnishing product that added something special to both the liquid + foam of an Espresso Martini + Pornstar Martini. We developed a range of edible, glitter droplets which add both colour + flavour (where required) to the serves. The droplets infuse completely into the liquid, leaving no residue and achieved a 12 month shelf life. We oversaw the entire project from innovation through development, supply chain and product pipeline strategy through to delivery of goods.

We’ve already executed on a handful of projects together and the working relationship has been nothing short of magical – we are in constant communication and the JB team is incredibly flexible/helpful when it comes to changes in client needs. Everything about working with this team has been fun, start to finish!

Ali Pellegrino, Account Manager, ADM for Diageo Spirits

Collaborating with Juicy Brick represented a significant step forward in our creative exploration. Their modern, forward-thinking approach inspired us to reimagine possibilities at every turn. Each step we took together ensured our project emerged more refined and robust. Working in collaboration, rather than simply handing over the task, allowed us to build towards a product that we all take pride in, eagerly awaiting its reveal on the other side.

Their first-hand founder knowledge, paired with industry awareness and manufacturing contacts, equals a seamless process from well-informed ideation into successful execution. I relish any chance to work with Mel and the team

Patrick Cooke, CEO Gilbert Cooke

Juicy Brick were a pleasure to work with. We gave them a brief which was rather complicated as it involved CBD, but they broke it down step by step and they nailed it, exceeding our expectations and delivering an incredible tasting product. I will definitely be using them for future projects!

Jimmy Walsh, CEO Yield Supplements

Juicy Brick was excellent. The team were collaborative, insightful and a pleasure to work with. Their holistic approach to brand creation was impressive, and their use of first-hand industry experience to bring solutions to the table was invaluable. We were very pleased with the outcome.
