Spice up your Profits
with Aviko’s Chilli Cheddar Nuggets
Chilli Cheddar Nuggets – the newest addition to Aviko’s portfolio of products – will help operators take a healthy bite out of the growing trend for snacking.
Food service market research firm, Horizons forecasts that snacks will be the big driver behind out-of-home sales between 2013 and 2014 while the popularity of dinner continues to fall. Its latest research shows that snacks represented 22% of the £32.8b of food sales in food service during 2012 (a 4.4% rise on 2011) and will see substantial growth over the next two years as a result of consumers’ faster, more casual approach to eating out.
Aviko’s new Chilli Cheddar Nuggets are aimed squarely at the time-poor grazing generation and will help pubs, casual dining outlets and quick service restaurants seize the significant opportunity that 24/7 snacking can open up for them. With an irregular shape for a homemade-style appeal, the nuggets combine a crunchy coating with a creamy, rich Cheddar cheese centre that delivers a spicy jalapeño kick.
The versatile nuggets tap into predicted trends for both bite-sized and ethnic-flavoured snacks and are equally at home as part of a sharing platter, a standalone on-the-go snack, side dish or an accompaniment to a Tex Mex-style meal.
Aviko General Manager, Mohammed Essa, comments: “Snacking has been spotlighted as the big money-making opportunity for 2014 and our versatile nuggets will help caterers spice up their profits around the clock.
Weighing in at just 17g, Aviko’s Chilli Cheddar Nuggets are 4g lighter than their market-leading rival – which means they provide two additional portions* per kilogram and more profit for the operator.
Mohammed adds; “We are already finding that restaurants are expanding their snacking menus to boost traffic between traditional dining times, with most planning to add full snacking menus and others looking to discount snacks during off-peak hours to drum up more trade. By giving caterers 25% more per kilogram*, our nuggets offer the best value on the market!”
Aviko’s Chilli Cheddar Nuggets are supplied frozen in 5 x 1kg cases, and can be ready to serve after just two-and-a-half minutes in the deep fryer.
Dedicated to foodservice and one of the biggest potato processors in the world, Aviko has a range of chilled and frozen potato specialities from morning favourites like hash browns and innovative hash brown bites, through to premium fries, creamy gratins, mash, roasties and much more.
* Based on six pieces per portion, Aviko provides 10 portions per kilogram compared with eight portions for the market leader.
