IDDSI Framework
Looking to improve the quality and cultural diversification of regular or medically tailored meals for patients with dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) at healthcare facilities and at home by offering IDDSI (International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative) levels 4 (Pureed), 5 (Minced & Moist) and 6 (Soft & Bite-sized).
By serving inclusive meals to patients with dysphagia, not only will you be honoring their culture and background, but also be bringing the comfort of home, and familiar flavors to your facility’s dining. We turn cultural understanding into tangible results: higher intake, lower waste.

About Us
Global Texture Cuisine was inspired by a speech-language pathologist who advocates for her patients daily; not only to improve their swallowing, but also to increase their oral intake as it is equally important for their health and recovery journey. After working at different medical settings, the lack of culturally delivery foods to patients was seen as a recurrent challenge (specially in areas where racial/cultural diversity grows year after year). This challenge continues to negatively impact patient's nutrition, recovery, and quality of life.
Our team's goal is to provide healthcare facilities with multicultural diverse meals for dysphagia patients who are on an IDDSI texture diet in order to:
Improve patient's overall health
Increase dining efficiency at your facility.
We are currently in the planning and researching phase of launching a multi-cultural IDDSI texture meal service for healthcare settings and direct consumers. Please help us with your feedback and join us to improve patients' lives around the Northern California region.
