With the rising popularity of authentic Italian cuisine, it’s no surprise that pistachio is appearing everywhere! This delightful flavour, with its unique nutty taste and vibrant green hue, is becoming a favourite among consumers and brands alike. Recent innovations in new product development (NPD) highlight the versatility of pistachio, showcasing its presence in: 🍦 Gourmet Gelatos: Creamy and indulgent, perfect for summer treats! 🎂 Decadent Desserts: Think pistachio-infused cakes and pastries that elevate any dessert menu. 🍽️ Savoury Sauces: Adding a nutty twist to dressings and pestos, enhancing flavour profiles in savoury dishes. 💪 Snack Bars: Health-conscious consumers are loving pistachio-flavoured protein bars and snacks that combine nutrition with taste. Our #NaturallyFabulous Pistachio flavour, from our Nutty ‘No-Nuts’ range, is crafted to deliver ‘true to the taste’ flavour without any nuts or nut derivatives, so everyone can enjoy it. Why not sample its rich, creamy essence with a subtly sweet profile, and see how it can elevate your next innovative product development! #Pistachio #FoodTrends #FoodAndBeverage
