Nestlé launches Mexican and Asian ranges

Nestlé has launched two new brands of dishes based on Mexican and Asian cuisines. Nestlé is launching two new brands: Mings, an Asian brand and Tapatio, a Mexican brand. The aim of this launch was to capitalize on the global food demand.

Ming Tsai is a famous American chef who created the Mings and Tapatio brands.

Mings was inspired by the blend of cooking methods and ingredients found in Western and Eastern cultures, said Ming Tsai. I am excited that people can now enjoy authentic Asian flavors wherever they are with dishes like spicy beef ramen and sweet and sour chicken with pineapple.

For over fifty years, the family that makes the most popular hot sauce has been preserving the tastes and aromas of Mexico. In partnership with Nestlé, the new Tapatio dishes are a great way for consumers to get high-quality, authentic Mexican dishes in a convenient format.

BFree launches white and fluffy gluten-free wraps

British brand BFree, naturally gluten-free, has launched a range of white, fluffy gluten-free wraps. The brand says the softness of the wrap has been praised by customers, a quality that is hard to achieve in gluten-free foods.

According to BFree's product and food development team, the softness is the result of extensive research.

We have developed a gluten-free baked product that breaks the mold. We never compromise on quality or taste, and we are committed to providing alternatives that challenge the stereotypes about gluten-free foods. Each wrap is made with the perfect blend of starches, fibers, and plant proteins. The result is the most delicious gluten-free wrap available on the market.

The test results are a testament to our development of soft white wraps. The combination of our world-class technology, natural fibers and ingredients such as peas, carrots and sweet potatoes, as well as a blend of starches and fibers creates a delicious and flexible gluten-free wrap that is both soft and sturdy.

Tesco, Asda and other UK supermarkets sell the wraps.
