Active minds continually seek to innovate. For example, during the IDFA Ice Cream & Cultured Dairy Innovation Conference, innovation intersected with flavors, formulations, and industry pillars like sustainability. Our Membrane Technology Forum was a springboard for discussing new filtration and separation techniques and much more!

The ice cream and cultured dairy product competitions took place during IDFA’s annual, co-located Ice Cream Technology Conference and Yogurt & Cultured Innovation Conference, which drew a crowd of more than 270 industry professionals to Clearwater, Fla., this week. 

The IDFA Ice Cream Technology and Yogurt and Cultured Conference is set to take place April 18 and 19 at the Austin Marriott Downtown in Austin, Texas. The ice cream and cultured events take place concurrently during this time.

Contest entry forms for the IDFA event must be submitted by April 4.

It provides unique opportunities to learn from experts on food safety, labeling and regulations that affect the industry. The conference also features networking, hands-on session and product tasting, including the annual Innovative Ice Cream Flavor Competition.

The International Dairy Foods Association, Washington, D.C., has opened registration for its popular Ice Cream Technology Conference, which will be held March 31-April 1, 2015, in St. Petersburg, Fla.
