Join us and the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art on Thursday, July 11, from 4-5 p.m. ET, for a special presentation about gelatin inventor and National Inventors Hall of Fame inductee, Peter Cooper.
In anticipation of "Eat Your Jell-O Day," we'll delve into Cooper's legacy and even explore some of the gelatin recipes from his time! Take a fascinating journey into the life and innovation of Cooper, the Gelatine Gentleman and the mind behind shelf-stable gelatin, and discover how his vision transformed the way we enjoy desserts.
Attendees will also learn about patenting and best practices in the area of food science.
Speakers:
