Fusion cuisine? One source defines it as “the deliberate combination of elements from two or more spatially or temporally distinct cuisines.” What if you took this concept and applied it to the larger process of product development?
That’s exactly what Bellisio Foods has done — and visitors can see it demonstrated at the company’s Fusion Culinary Center in suburban Minneapolis.
Who says you can’t go home again? Last year found Michelina’s — at age 17 no less — changing its name to Bellisio Foods Inc. in recognition of founder Jeno Paulucci’s ancestral home of Bellisio Solfare, Italy. And in keeping with Paulucci’s roots and maverick approach, you could say that Bellisio Foods now is branching out to write the next “entrée-preneurial” chapter in this company’s history.
