On Taste and Texture

On Taste and Texture: The Science of Texture That Will Leave You Wanting More

Prepare your taste buds, because in this workshop we’ll taste a whole world of fascinating textures! We’ll learn what “texture” is, taste foods with different textures, and get to know a field called “food technology.” We’ll also explore textures and change them: we’ll make butter, whip cream, and even prepare delicious bubble tea using food technology straight from the laboratory.

Among the ingredients/allergens in this activity: pineapple, peach, peanuts, milk, mango, sodium alginate, calcium lactate, and grapes.

Advance registration is required, even if the ticket is free.

• The workshops are intended for children ages 6–12, accompanied by an adult. Children under the age of six will not be admitted. Every participant must have a ticket. The workshop lasts approximately 90 minutes.
