Flavour Creations is a founder-led global leader in dysphagia and medical nutrition. Since 1997, we have developed innovative nutrition solutions and accessories for vulnerable consumers, using a food-first approach to make nutritional health easy, enjoyable and accessible.

In partnership with Albany Products Ltd, we bring our market-leading products to the UK healthcare sector. Since 1996, Albany has supplied branded and private-label FMCG products to retail and wholesale organisations, providing extensive UK market expertise, strong sourcing capabilities and efficient logistics. Together, we combine innovative medical nutrition solutions with reliable local supply to support healthcare providers and improve patient outcomes.

Approach to Healthcare

At Flavour Creations, we believe everyone should be able to experience the joy of eating. That's why we put food first.

Good food brings friends, families and communities together, so we create products that enhance meals and help restore joy and dignity for those who are unable to consume a regular diet.

From ready-to-drink thickened beverages and moulding powders to neutrally flavoured nutritional supplements, our innovations are designed to improve the appearance, texture and nutritional value of food without compromising taste. This helps deliver better patient outcomes.

All our products are scientifically formulated by a multidisciplinary team of food scientists, speech pathologists and dietitians, and are supported by rigorous quality and safety processes. Through our partnership with Albany Products, healthcare providers across the UK benefit from reliable supply and efficient distribution.

Impact of Products/Services on Healthcare

Our range of products makes nutritional health easy, enjoyable, accessible and safe.

Our Pre-Thickened Amylase Resistant™ Drinks, available at IDDSI Levels 1-4, provide improved patient safety, consistency and significant time savings compared with manually thickened beverages.

Screamies® No-Melt Ice Cream is crafted using a specialised shelf-stable formula that never melts and never softens beyond IDDSI Level 4, making it an enjoyable and safe treat for people living with dysphagia. It helps restore dignity and joy within aged care and healthcare settings, and is also available in added-protein varieties for those with increased nutritional requirements.

Argie® supports wound healing from within. High in energy and protein, and enriched with L-Arginine, L-Tryptophan, Zinc and Vitamin C, Argie provides key nutrients to support muscle health, skin integrity and effective wound healing. In one case, a wound that had remained unhealed for more than 16 months progressed to closure within eight weeks of introducing Argie® as part of the care plan.

Innovation

We believe empathy drives innovation. By truly understanding the challenges faced by the people we serve, we create products that restore dignity and improve nutritional health for individuals in hospitals, aged care, at home and within the community.

Using patented technology, our Amylase Resistant™ formula maintains a stable consistency throughout the entire swallowing process, unlike starch-based thickened products. This helps improve safety, quality and taste while supporting better hydration and nutrition for people living with dysphagia.

Following seven years of rigorous research and development, we launched our award-winning Dysphagia Cup in 2016. Designed in accordance with Arthritis Australia's Packaging Design Accessibility Guidelines, the cup incorporates six key features that empower individuals to drink independently.

Screamies was born from a desire to bring greater enjoyment to people requiring IDDSI Level 4 diets. After all, there are few experiences more joyful than enjoying an ice cream.

We continue to innovate with specialised nutritional products, including Recover and Argie, to support wound healing, recovery and overall nutritional wellbeing.

Future Direction

Building on our success in Australia and in partnership with Albany Products Ltd, we are excited to bring our innovative medical nutrition solutions and specialist expertise to the UK, supporting healthcare providers in addressing some of the region's most pressing nutritional care challenges and improving quality of life for the people they care for.
