Description: This Fresh Take Talk will delve into the personal experiences and hurdles of working with cannabis and bringing cannabis into the commercial product goods space. Topics will include discussion around formulation, packaging, sensory, and shelf life. The presentation will touch on tips and tricks to help those interested (whether it is small-scale bakeries or CPG wholesalers) in incorporating different forms of cannabis into their products and will discuss the inherent difficulties of entering and staying in the cannabis market.
Classroom Engagement: This will be a quick-paced "TED Talk" like presentation. While cannabis has been a hot topic for quite a few years this presentation will be more focused on real-life experiences of bringing cannabis to the CPG market. Engagement will include a visual presentation and would like to include time for an open discussion for interested attendees.
