About Taylor Borz

My interests lie heavily in Research and Product development of baked goods, desserts, snacks, and sugar reduced products. My goal as a product developer is to create great tasting products that are permissible to health conscience consumers. I am currently a Scientist II at Campbell Soup Company working on Front of Funnel product development. Prior to my current role, I was a Product Development Scientist at PepsiCo working on Cola. As an intern at PepsiCo, I had the opportunity to work with Naked Juice and Trop50. Prior to my time at PepsiCo, I was an intern at Flavor Solutions Inc, working on applications of TenderBake, sugar reduction, and developing a functional bread flavor. I was previously an assistant in teaching Rutgers\'s undergraduate food science course, Principles of Food Science Lab. Prior, I was a Part-time Lecturer for the Food Product Development course, where I helped in the formulation of cookie and cracker products and up kept the pilot plant\'s stock and sanitation. Over the summers between semesters I have had various jobs working in pastry to gain hands on experience with products. I worked at Harrah\'s Casino in Atlantic City as a baker for two summers and The Dandelion in Philadelphia as a pastry cook during the spring of my final semester at Atlantic Cape. These roles have given me experience in kitchen operations and efficiency, as well as hands on experience with product and consumers.I graduated Rutgers University with my B.S. of Food Science Research in May 2019, and I plan on pursing a Masters in the future. I was Valedictorian of the Fall 2015 Academy of Culinary Arts at Atlantic Cape Community College class. I graduated with my full A.A.S. in the spring of 2016. My education has given me the technical understanding to pursue my future endeavors in the field of product development. My Baking and Pastry Arts background has given me extensive exposure to preparing and formulating dessert and bread products. I am very passionate about the field and I am very exited to be a part of this industry.
