Blending & Extruding

Ingredient Innovation, Made In-House

Western Foods blends and extrudes ingredients with precision, speed, and flexibility, turning grains, pulses, and specialty flours into ready-to-use formats that solve real-world formulation challenges. By housing these capabilities alongside our milling operations, we create a seamless path from raw grain to finished inclusion or extruded snack base.
From Concept to Commercial-Ready

Our in-house team collaborates directly with food brands and manufacturers to develop custom blends and extruded formats that align with your nutritional targets, processing needs, and brand goals. Whether you’re launching a new gluten-free snack or improving the texture of a better-for-you cereal, Western Foods helps streamline the path from idea to finished product.
