Freaks of Nature foodservice launch
Plant-based, free-from and vegan dessert manufacturer Freaks of Nature have expanded their offering into the foodservice market for the first time.
The company has appointed Vegetarian Express as their distributor to caterers, hotels and restaurants.
Their new range of dairy and gluten free melt-in-the middle hot puddings will launch with two varieties – Chocolate Fudge and Sticky Toffee. Using their innovative recipe, these hot puds are free from the top 14 allergens. The puddings come in 130 g portions with 24 portions per case.
The line aims to solve the back of house problem of having multiple desserts to cater to diners’ different requirements by being suitable for 99% of the population. The frozen desserts need to be defrosted and heated.
Sales Director, Paul Downing said: “At Freaks of Nature, we’re all about making delicious, indulgent puddings that everyone can enjoy. Appointing Vegetarian Express is a hugely exciting development for us as it will empower our customers to simplify their pudding offering and save complexity in the kitchen. Freaks of Nature’s puddings truly are for one and all.”
Freaks of Nature create their range of hot melt-in-the-middle puddings, cold-eat desserts and yoghurts at their own accredited factory. Each product is gluten, dairy, egg and soya free, produced using 100% plant-based products, without artificial additives, preservatives or refined sugar.
This is the first trade expansion from Freaks of Nature, who are already known for their retail products which are stocked in Waitrose, Ocado, Morrison’s, Asda and Planet Organic, Sainsbury’s and Whole Foods.
