Rich’s and Diageo are showcasing their new Baileys licensing partnership at the 2025 International Dairy Deli Bakery Association (IDDBA) conference.
Located at booth #2425, Rich’s will give IDDBA attendees a first look at its new portfolio of Baileys branded products, while also featuring live demonstrations and experiences.
Featuring a line-up of non-alcoholic dessert solutions made with the flavor of Baileys Irish Cream, the licensed collection includes an ice cream cake, a New York-style cheesecake, pre-baked cookies, cookie dough, Bettercreme icing, and an authentic tres leches soak.
“This year marks a special IDDBA appearance for Rich’s, as we’re celebrating our 80th anniversary as a family-owned food company,” said Rich Products SVP, Alvino Battistoni. “Innovation has always been at the heart of who we are—dating all the way back to 1945 when our founder invented the world’s first non-dairy whipped topping,” added Battistoni. “We’re excited to showcase some of our newest innovations at IDDBA this year—from new products and solutions to the unique ways we’re leaning into digital technology – all to help bakeries stay ahead, deliver on the latest consumer trends and drive growth in today’s rapidly evolving marketplace.”
The company will also host a series of interactive product demonstrations that feature trending flavors, labor-saving formats, new technology advances and an AI-driven recipe generator.
Led by Rich’s team of bakery technicians, the demonstrations will take place throughout the duration of the business-to-business trade event.
