The Tipiak Vegan Canapé Selection has been launched by the French foodservice brand as a new product for the UK market that responds to consumer preferences in the face of an ever-changing category.
The product includes a 36-piece serving that comes packaged in a recyclable kraft tray and boasts six vegan-friendly bites in all. The vegan-friendly bites mix a series of taste and textures to work well for different snacking and meal occasions, while also giving a nod to foodie trends. The 400-gram selection comes frozen and only requires four-hours of defrosting time to have them work well for receptions, events and more.
International Marketing Manager Marie-Emmanuelle Chessé commented on the Tipiak Vegan Canapé Selection saying, "With the Vegan Canapé Selection, we wanted to bring together vibrant presentation, globally inspired flavours and a variety of textures in a format that is simple to prepare and easy to serve. It gives operators a straightforward way to add a premium vegan option across drinks receptions, banqueting and event catering, while keeping back-of-house complexity to a minimum.”
