The UK food and beverages doesn’t sit still.
Every week sees the launch of new products, or the rebranding of old ones, the emergence of new food innovations and designs, trending and innovative flavour combinations, as well as cool new colour combinations in packaging and product development.
These changes affect our relationship with the food and drinks we consume, and how we discover, purchase and experience them.
Sips with Bites visually tracks some of those changes.
If you are involved in food product design, we hope our images and insights from the UK market might inspire your work and feed your creativity. If you’re a foodie looking for greater awareness of how food brands are trying to reach you, you’re in the right place.

How to use Sips with Bites
We post images from a wide range of outlets and brands – from well-known shops and cafes to food fairs, pop-ups, carnivals, festivals and business shows.
We are as likely to photograph products from individual street-vendors sharing their culinary heritage as perfectly-packaged high street brands.
Take time to notice the branding and how it makes you feel, savour the perceived textures with their flavours, and anticipate that moment of indulgence. How does the way these products are presented, affect how you perceive, buy and experience them?
Remember to save our snaps of the products and services that excite you, and add them to your own inspiration portfolio.

FAQS
Where can I purchase these products?
We do not sell any products on our website or on our Instagram page. The products may be purchased directly from the manufacturer’s website or retail outlets. We cannot guarantee that the products we share will be available in all geographical locations or will be available throughout the year.
Why are some of the images not of the best photographic quality?
We take these images in real time when we see products that should be shared. As a result, lighting and angles are not ideal. We share these images for awareness not to advertise the brands.
