MOVENPICK ICE CREAM EXTENDS ITS RANGE WITH TWO NEW FLAVOURS

March 14th, 2012

Mövenpick Ice Cream are extending their range with the launch of two new products – Fior di Latte Ice Cream and Apricot Sorbet.

The new Fior di Latte is a 51% whole milk ice-cream.

Made with whole Swiss milk, Fior di Latte is launching to appeal as a base for gourmet desserts, giving chefs the flexibility to add a range of flavours and ingredients.

The flavour hopes to accompany such desserts such as a chocolate tart or an indulgent after dinner hot chocolate drink.

Julia Jones, Head of Customer Marketing, Mövenpick Ice Cream, said:

“Swiss milk is renowned for its unique creaminess and the subtle taste of Fior di Latte gives chefs the freedom to create new combinations of ingredients and flavours.”

The second new addition to the range is Apricot Sorbet.

The eighth addition to its line of 99% fat-free sorbets, the combination of apricot sorbet and sun-ripened Bergeron apricot pieces from France make up the new flavour.

The high fruit content (40%) and flavour of Bergeron apricots lends this sorbet its saffron colour.

The sorbet hopes to prove versatile as a complement to fresh red fruit with a hint of honey or as part of a fruit smoothie.

Julia added: “With the Summer months approaching, refreshing fruit-flavoured desserts really come into their own and sorbets make an appealing option for those looking for a light after-dinner option.”

Like all Mövenpick products, Fior di Latte Ice Cream and Apricot Sorbet are free from artificial additives, flavourings and colours and are suitable for vegetarians.

Both products are available in 2.4 litre tubs from wholesalers nationwide from March.
