This new flavor represents the newest addition to the Limited Edition line-up and for every jar sold, a portion will help to aid the foodbank. As Melanie Rochford, Business & Development Director at Hackney Foodbank, says: "With the money we receive from Pip & Nut through this initiative we plan to purchase a new van, which is essential for keeping up with the growing demand at our five centers, along with putting the funds towards top-up items that haven’t been donated in sufficient quantities to keep up with demand." The seasonal nut butter flavor enhances a base of [creamy almond butter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salted-caramel-drizzler) with ginger and cinnamon spices, plus dates for hints of sweet caramel flavors.
