Our Divina Calabrese Antipasto Salad is a fan favorite medley featuring Greek olives, roasted pepper strips, Asiago cheese and Calabrese salami. Divina's antipasti kits are designed to provide you with ultimate flexibility and quality. Mixed fresh in-house when you need it, each ingredient is fully experienced and enjoyed. It's also easy to customize each mix. For example, we love our Calabrese salad tossed with couscous and smoked almonds. https://lnkd.in/gak3UXxh

Quite simply, there is no substitute for a Divina roasted tomato. Handpicked, harvested and produced in the USA, our award-winning tomatoes are slow-roasted at a low temperature to draw out the fruit's natural sweetness. Offered in several piece sizes and marinade variations, this hero ingredienet will carry your menu from breakfast to dinner. Depending on the case size, our roasted red tomatoes can save $50+ per case in ingredient and labor costs when compared to purchasing raw materials and preparing from scratch. https://lnkd.in/e4DZ6rUS

Move over Sriracha, there's a new spice on the block! Calabrian chili peppers are a top trending ingredient on restaurant menus, bringing a level of authenticity and sophistication to classic Italian cooking and adding complex heat to non-Italian dishes. Divina Calabrian Chili Peppers are available whole or chopped to save you prep time in the kitchen, in both retail and bulk sizes, packed in an irresistible spicy oil that's ideal for repurposing once the peppers are finished. #calabrianchili #foodandbeverage #divina

Every Divina stuffed olive is carefully filled by hand in Greece. It's a process that speaks to the tradition, heritage and pride that the Greek community takes in their agricultural contribution to the world. Most of our stuffed olives are available in glass jars, deli cups or bulk pack sizes for foodservice, olive bars, or pack-out. #specialtyfood #olives #divina https://lnkd.in/gtnRKyd4

Fruit-forward flavors are a key trend emerging in the specialty food space, according to the Specialty Food Association. You can find this sought-after deep fruit flavor in Divina Greek Apricot Spread, which made the list in this trendspotters' report from the Summer Fancy Food Show. Leana Salama — SVP of Marketing and Communications at SFA — says, "Trends that start in specialty hit menus and mainstream retail shelves in the blink of an eye. So the trendspotters' observations from this year's show offer a snapshot into the future of not just specialty but all food and beverage." https://lnkd.in/gkp92gqX #fancyfoodshow #specialtyfood #foodandbeverage
