Single-Origin Ice Creams

Choctál Puts a Global Spin on Chocolate and Vanilla Ice Cream

— April 2, 2016 — Lifestyle
Around the world, chocolate and vanilla ice cream are some of the most basic, but beloved, flavors. In order to showcase just how much the taste of chocolate and vanilla can vary from region to region, California-based Choctál makes its gourmet ice cream with single-origin ingredients.

Some of Choctál's flavorful creations include Indonesian Vanilla, Papua New Guinea Vanilla and Mexican Vanilla, as well as Kalimantan Chocolate and Costa Rican Chocolate. While the finished products all look identical, there are significant differences in each ice cream flavor.

Very few businesses are able to thrive by selling just chocolate and vanilla ice cream, but through an exploration of global flavors, Choctál gives its consumers a reason to explore each and every one of its frozen desserts to make flavor comparisons.
Trend Themes
1. Single-origin Foods - More businesses may explore the use of single-origin ingredients to highlight regional flavor differences in their products.
2. Global Flavor Exploration - Businesses in the food industry may consider offering products that feature unique global flavors to entice consumers looking for new tastes.
3. Gourmet Ice Cream - There may be an opportunity for businesses to differentiate themselves in the competitive ice cream market by offering premium, gourmet varieties featuring high-quality, single-origin ingredients.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage - Companies in the food and beverage industry may benefit from incorporating single-origin ingredients and unique global flavors into their products.
2. Ice Cream - Ice cream companies may consider offering gourmet varieties featuring single-origin ingredients to appeal to consumers looking for high-quality and unique tastes.
3. Retail - Retailers that specialize in specialty or gourmet foods may find value in stocking products that feature single-origin ingredients and global flavors to appeal to food enthusiasts.
