Due to new food trends, dishes from distant countries, new lifestyles, but also sustainability issues ("food waste", new protein sources), there is an increasing trend towards foods that are novel to Europe.
This interactive presentation will provide you with the basics of the Novel Food Regulation and explain the authorisation procedures. The legal framework will be underpinned with a number of practical examples. This should equip you to carry out your own research into novel food status so that food can be marketed legally.
