Listen in as Prepared Foods talks Asian food trends and tastes with DDC Founder & CEO Norma Chu.

Consumers of all ages are most willing to try ethnic cuisines in their home cooking, at restaurants, and when traveling. They name Asian, European, and Latin American flavors as the most influential and Asian as the most familiar and inspirational. Preferences for specific ethnic cuisines, however, vary somewhat based on food and beverage category.

Blue Point Capital Partners recently invested in food businesses with the acquisition of Water Lilies Food, LLC. Water Lilies is a manufacturer and distributor of premium frozen Asian-inspired cuisine for major retail private label and foodservice customers nationwide.

Today’s consumers carry more culinary knowledge than ever before, and can boast familiarity with ingredients such as lemongrass and kaffir limes, black garlic, fenugreek and carob.
