Land O’Frost, Inc. announced that it has appointed Chef Timothy Baran as its innovation chef to help bring new flavors and creative recipes to families across the country.
Chef Baran was carefully selected by Land O’Frost for his impressive culinary background and passion for food. In this new role, he will be charged with working closely with product development teams at Land O’Frost to explore the latest culinary trends, test new products and develop recipes for Land O’Moms, a community resource hosted by Land O’Frost that offers moms and families tips and ideas for activities, recipes and more.
