The Brinsmead's work closely with Queensland and Southern Cross Universities researching new fruit crops and new uses for the many fruits grown on the plantation. Their most recent discovery of a new use for an old-time favourite fruit is the Tropicology skin care range based on avocado oil.
Another discovery is the Black Sapote fruit, which tastes like chocolate sauce but with fewer calories. There's also the Tropical Passion gourmet food line created by Bob and Val's daughter, chef Sally Brinsmead, who also creates exotic taste sensations based on fruit and Australian produce in the Rainforest Café at Tropical Fruit World.
