Abstract
Carnival of Textures – A Sensory Workshop
Step into the Carnival of Textures, a lively and hands-on workshop that explores the creative and sensory potential of oil-in-gel emulsifier systems. Inspired by the playful spirit of carnival, this session invites participants to experiment with texture transformation—exploring how emulsifier-based formulations can shift from oil gel to milk.
Through guided formulation exercises and tactile exploration, attendees will create a series of imaginative, carnival-themed prototypes that highlight the versatility and sensorial appeal of these systems. This session blends technical know-how with hands-on creativity—celebrating the joy of formulation as performance, play, and discovery.
