Quorn Foods has teamed up with bakery goods specialist, Délifrance, to introduce a Vegan Ham & Cheeze Crown for food-to-go operators.
The new offering features “flaky” pastry topped with Quorn Ham pieces in a dairy-free béchamel sauce and aims to help companies to maximise profits during Veganuary.
Stéphanie Brillouet, marketing director at Délifrance, said: “At a time when consumers are looking for affordable, indulgent treats, the Vegan Ham & Cheeze Crown can provide the perfect solution for operators who want to provide convenient grab-and-go options”.
Cheryl Graham, licensing manager at Quorn Foods UK, added: “January is a great time to add new items to the menu. Meat free sees its highest penetration throughout January, and with the tenth anniversary of Veganuary approaching, one that promises to be the biggest yet, it’s the perfect time for operators to engage diners with more meat-free options.”
She continued: “Veganuary isn’t just about January anymore. Veganuary’s research highlighted that 80% of participants this year were still eating 50% less meat, dairy and eggs six months after taking part.”
The Crown is sold frozen in boxes of 40 and will be available via Délifrance in wholesalers from January. The ready-to-bake offering also comes in retail packs of two.
