Yili Group Wins Two IDF Dairy Innovations Awards

Yili "Ambient Cheese Lollipop" also scored a success by winning the "Innovation in New Product Development with Focus on Food Safety and Consumer Nutrition" award. By adding the bifidobacterium lactis BL-99 into the product, Yili has launched a new category of children's cheese lollipops that can be stored at room temperature, overcoming the limits of traditional cold-chain logistics and low-temperature sales in the market. "The ambient cheese lollipop was an amazing idea which I've never even imagined before. It's very good and brings nutrition to people. The ambient innovations are exceptional because you can now bring dairy goodness and even probiotics to areas where they weren't available before," added Richard Walton.
