Last month, Efco Products hosted approximately 34 students of the Culinary Institute of America, who are currently enrolled in a Global Food Systems Class. The Efco team described its custom development work for both national as well as certain international markets and how the company has quickly responded with product line additions that meet these markets’ demands. Additionally, the presentation covered the impact that weather plays on Efco’s agriculturally based key ingredients, from the seed of a crop to the end product, and how it can affect the whole supply chain. Efco was proud to host this group of promising chefs in training from the CIA’s main campus in nearby Hyde Park, NY.

Presented by the New Jersey Bakers Board of Trade and the New York State Association of Manufacturing Retail Bakers, the 2010 Atlantic Bakery Expo was a complete educational program with demonstrations, seminars and hands-on classes to go along with a tradeshow floor packed with numerous exhibitors. Once again, the Atlantic Bakery Expo was partnered with the Sigep USA show which focused on the booming frozen desserts market, bringing the premier baking and frozen dessert artisans in the country, to the same place at one time.

EFCO brought a large group to Atlantic City this year: Fred Raiser and Michael Effron, Rob Burmeister and his wife Lea, Patty Lysenko and Teal Liu. There were numerous new items highlighted at this year’s show including the #172 Raspberry Turnover, #162 Paradise Lemon, and well as our fantastic Cream Cheese Filling.  The new Item #171 Fruity Raspberry Filling was also included in our mini shot parfait cups, which consisted of whipped topping, EFCO’s Superior Moist Yellow Cake Mix (Item #332), EFCO’s Fruity Raspberry Filling (Item #171), and a chocolate straw (click here for recipe details and a picture).
