ICAR–Central Institute of Fisheries Technology (ICAR-CIFT) has introduced an innovative functional food product, Collagen Honey Peanut Butter, designed to meet the growing demand for nutritious, clean-label and health-focused food choices. This unique spread is enriched with high-quality protein and marine collagen, making it an ideal option for consumers seeking both taste and functional benefits in their daily diet.

Combined with the natural goodness of peanuts and the mild sweetness of honey, the product delivers a smooth texture and a naturally appealing taste without artificial additives.

Developed through ICAR-CIFT’s scientific expertise and food technology innovation, Collagen Honey Peanut Butter reflects the institute’s commitment to creating value-added, sustainable and health-oriented food products. It aligns perfectly with current market trends that emphasize high-protein foods, functional nutrition and preventive health.

This product presents strong opportunities for food processors, nutraceutical brands and health-focused retailers looking to expand their offerings with research-backed innovations. Suitable for all age groups, it can be consumed as a breakfast spread, snack companion, or nutritional supplement. ICAR-CIFT continues to play a vital role in advancing food innovation that supports healthier lifestyles and evolving consumer needs.
