WHAT TO SERVE

With the sheer number of dietary requirements seemingly rising by the day, it can be hard to know which products are suitable for serving.

BOLD FLAVOURS

The new range of F.Whilock & Sons 2kg Relishes and Chutney brings together delicious and bold flavours to delight your customers. These sauces are gluten-free, have no added MSG, no artificial colours or flavours and are suitable for vegetarians. They are also conveniently freeze-thaw and bain-marie stable and offer approximately 50 serves per jar. Mix Beetroot and Balsamic Relish through coleslaw or fold into cream cheese or sour cream for a simple dip. Spice up chicken sliders with Tomato & Smoky Chipotle relish or use it as a marinade for meat for extra heat. Try Caramelized Onion Relish on burgers, as a pizza base or mixed through mash. Mix Peach, Mango & Apricot chutney through yoghurt with sumac and chopped herbs then drizzle over some lamb koftas.

VEGAN DECADENCE

For years, Petal has been producing gluten-free products. However, customers were constantly asking for vegan options as well – something which always seemed like an impossible task, given that the cupcakes are so tasty thanks to the cream cheese, butter and eggs. Finally, about four months ago, the team at Petal perfected a recipe. They stand by the challenge for the average customer to detect the fact that the product is vegan. The Petal team have created a decadent product that does not taste like all the good stuff has been removed. Initially, the team at Petal launched with just a Vegan Vanilla Bean and a Vegan Salted Caramel, but work is currently ongoing and new flavours are set to be launched soon.
