Let’s start with some tension.

Creatives don’t normally like research.

However,
Creatives should like research that means their ideas are bought by clients
and are effective with audiences.

Consumer neuroscience offers a paradigm in which creatives, planners
and researchers work together to achieve more effective (emotional) and
human communications

What can neuroscience tell us about the science
of taste perception?

Make the food the starShow the product about to be, or in the act of being, eaten and in bright contrasting colours and in
tight close ups and different angles. Deliver this when people
are most hungry.

The science: Displaying food• Showing food has a dramatic impact
on brain activity. People eat more when exposed to images of food.
• Showing food as close to
consumption as possible drives more neurological activity
• Showing it when people are hungry is even more impactful
• Bright colours and strong contrast stimulate people the most

Make it multi-sensoryDevelop as many sensory
hooks as possible and utilise them together to trigger as
many memories and associations as possible

The science: Multi-sensory experience• Loud noises, e.g. plane, can
dim taste of food.• Changing the sound
experience alters liking, e.g. Crisp experiment.
• Feeling a rough object while eating makes the food taste saltier.
• Holding smooth textures makes it taste sweeter.

textures

The science: Fats in motion
The brain is predisposed to disproportionately react to high calorie foods.
Fats in motion have the highest impact on favourability

The science: Effort and skill
The Latte Art experiment: an example of how you can influence people’s expectations about product’s value
When consumers believe that a product has had more effort and skill involved in its creation: they like it more and are willing to pay more for it.

Hero a moment of bliss
Hitting the “bliss point” is crucial to communicating flavour and should be the
pinnacle of the communication

The science: Others’ enjoyment communicates tasteThe “bliss point” is crucial to experiencing taste and flavour.
Draws on the “Promised Land” effect of exaggerated claims that trigger the reward areas of the brain.
