Flatbread Crackers and Oven Baked Snacks

Our signature product line of lahvosh-style flatbread crackers are hand crafted in small batches. This premium, all-natural flatbread is made in Wheeling, Illinois and considered to be the original for gourmet flatbread. Flavor innovation is key for the traditional, specialty food product: each year Distinctive Foods introduces as many as five new and on-trend flavors. Capabilities now include: die-cutting; inclusions and toppings; flavor infused spraying; Kosher (OU Dairy); VFF packaging; horizontal overwrapping; portion-control and bulk packaging.

Value-added Desserts

Distinctive Foods manufactures a line of high end, quality-first, baked goods. Initially specializing in cheesecake, the product line has been extended to include many value-added products including desserts-on-a-stick and our nationally distributed, multi-layered, ooey gooey butter cake. While never sacrificing quality and safety for price, Distinctive has the ability to customize products to meet specific price points. A high-volume batch oven facility, Distinctive Foods is able to create customized desserts unique to their customers, including natural and clean labels, regional specialties, and many more possibilities!
