About Chefmaster

501 Airpark Drive Fullerton,CA. 92833
Chefmaster was founded in 1938 in Southern California by a group of pastry chefs who wanted to create high-quality food colors for their own culinary creations. The company quickly gained an outstanding reputation for producing superior food colorings and teamed up with a reputable flavor company to begin supplying them to other chefs and culinary professionals, continuing to grow steadily over the next 5 decades. 1984 marks a key milestone in Chefmaster history as it gets acquired by Byrnes &Kiefer Co., a prominent bakery ingredients manufacturer and supplier on the East Coast. Family-owned since 1902, Byrnes & Kiefer Co. brings over 120 years of legacy, performance, and expertise to Chefmaster, sharing the same passion for providing quality services and products to their customers along with a deep understanding of the importance to proactively adapt to the ever-changing needs of the marketplace. Over the years, Chefmaster became Byrnes & Kiefer’ flagship brand by expanding its capabilities beyond food coloring, growing its position both nationally and internationally, and establishing strong brand loyalty and following among industry experts, food manufacturers, professional bakers, mass merchandisers, retailers, and home bakers alike. Still runs by the 4th generation of the Byrnes family and dedicated to the business values and principles of its founders, Chefmaster thrives to continue offering excellent customer service and the highest level of innovative quality baking, coloring, and decorating products that their customers, large and small, have learned to rely upon and trust year after year.
