At Fruit d’Or, innovation goes beyond cranberry processing in our facilities, it also thrives in our laboratory. By leveraging our deep expertise and thorough knowledge of our ingredients, our research and development (R&D) team supports innovation by helping our clients optimize their formulations and develop applications that unlock the full potential of our ingredients while meeting today’s consumer expectations.
Scientific Expertise Serving Taste
Behind every ingredient we offer lies rigorous work in analysis, formulation and testing. Our R&D experts don’t just develop products with optimized nutritional profiles or proven functional properties, they also explore their culinary potential across multiple applications: bars, bakery, snacks, beverages, and more.
For instance, how do you integrate a low-sugar dried cranberry into cookie dough without compromising texture? Or how do we ensure that our berries retain their aromas over a longer shelf life? These are the kinds of challenges our team tackles every day to deliver products that meet the industry’s highest standards.
A Laboratory of Ideas and Collaboration
We work closely with our clients to co-develop tailored solutions that fit their technical requirements, product specifications and brand identity.
Whether optimizing an existing formulation or creating a brand-new concept, our approach is always guided by attentive listening, scientific rigor and a strong dose of creativity.

It’s the simple everyday things that make our berries so tender, tasty, healthy and give them the perfect texture. Each parcel of land we farm with care and respect. Each extra day we wait to ensure crops are harvested at peak ripeness. Each minute saved between field and freezer. Each berry perfectly preserved. Each unwanted substance detected and eliminated. And each delicious bite our customers enjoy.
