Participating in the NUS FoodTech Challenge 2026 was an exciting and rewarding experience for Team L13 – JELLY CHA. Our product, Lychee Collagen-Infused Ceylon Black Tea with White Peach-Flavoured Konjac Jelly, combines a refreshing tea base with chewy konjac jelly to create a fun and convenient beverage concept. Developing the product while all of us were also juggling our internships made the challenge even more demanding, but taught us valuable lessons in time management, teamwork and communication.
We learned to balance creativity with considerations such as consumer preferences, nutrition, formulation, cost and feasibility, while continuously refining our idea based on feedback. FTC 2026 gave us the opportunity to apply our food science knowledge to a real product development challenge and made the experience especially memorable.
