WHAT’S NEW A PREMIUM TAKE ON A CLASSIC Bulla is delving back to drive sales forward with a premium take on an ice cream classic: Neapolitan. The dairy company says its version of the vintage triple-flavour favourite – “the source of many a family fight over the years as to who got either the chocolate or strawberry, leaving dad to keep the peace by taking the vanilla ice cream” – has been added to its “market-leading” 2lt Creamy Classics range. “Combining its signature chocolate and vanilla ice cream flavours with a new strawberry ice cream featuring real strawberry pieces, this is sure to be another strong seller for the brand (and the source of some new family arguments),” Bulla Dairy Foods Head of Marketing Andrew Noisette said. The product is available nationally, in time for what Bulla expects will be a great summer sales period. A TASTI PLANT- BASED SNACK New Zealand’s Tasti is launching two new plant-based snacks in Australia, pointing to the claim from Sports Dietitians Australia that 2.5 million Australians are now following a plant- based diet. Tasti promotes its use of plant proteins, probiotics and superfood ingredients, saying the plant-based approach emphasises high-quality ingredients including vegetables, fruits, wholegrains, seeds and nuts. The new snacks for Australia are Protein+, filled with plant protein, and Fruit+Vege, which is said to be this country’s first apple-based bliss ball made from real fruit and vegetables that contains no added sugar. “Fruit+Vege is a wholesome plant- based snack for lunch boxes, with core ingredients of apple and sunflower seeds,” Australian nutritionist and wholefood cook Jacqueline Alwill said. “On the other hand, Protein+ includes plant-based protein, fibre, superfoods and probiotics, which help fuel the good bacteria in the gut and support the health of the digestive system.” Tasti’s Fruit+Vege and Protein+ are available at Coles, Woolworths and independent grocers.
