This new Hellmann’s mayonnaise product is making its way to the UK to help tap into consumer demand for simple yet delicious ways to elevate their favorite sandwich recipes.
The new product is the Hellmann’s Sweet Sandwich Time Mayonnaise with Deli-Style Mustard that features mayo paired with mustard for the perfect touch of familiar flavor. The condiment is being launched alongside a partnership with Tesco that will see the grocer launching the Mealtime Diamond Sandwich as a meal deal option to help shoppers try it out in a convenient way.
Condiments MD UK & I at Unilever Claire Racklyeft commented on the latest Hellmann’s mayonnaise product saying, "We know sandwiches are the UK’s go-to lunch and the number one occasion for mayonnaise, so we wanted to bring some real fun and flavour with this launch. Sweet Sandwich Time Mayonnaise is a great example of how we can take a familiar favourite and give it a fresh twist, while the Meal Diamond sandwich helps bring that idea to life in a simple, tasty and relevant way for Tesco shoppers."
