Mintel analysts come across really innovative and eye-catching food, drink and beauty products from around the world on a daily basis. In this new video, my colleagues and I share some of our favourites – from a full meal replacement in a bar to a pizza eye shadow palette. For those of you who are Mintel clients, you can check out all these products on Mintel GNPD.
