Del Monte launches a duo of Salad Cream sauces
Del Monte and D2 International have teamed up to launch a duo of Del Monte branded salad cream condiments, developed specifically for the UK market.
The new additions, Salad Cream and Light Salad Cream, are available in Asda stores nationwide from this month with an RSP of £2.29 (510g) in a convenient top down squeezy, recyclable bottle. The Salad Cream products deliver a creamy and tangy flavour. They join a wider range of sauces, Ketchup, Classic BBQ and Jerk BBQ with Pineapple, developed by D2 International in Manchester using recipes that incorporate some of Del Monte’s most popular products.
For shoppers who are looking for a lower-fat alternative, the Light Salad Cream recipe contains 70% less fat than the original recipe, and only and only 15kcal per portion (15g). Both products are entirely begetarian and gluten free.
Stephen Simpson, head of grocery sales at D2 International Manchester states: “We’re proud to be working with Del Monte on this new development of Del Monte Salad Cream range which allows us to offer the best quality products to our customers. Del Monte is well recognised as a leading household name in the fruit sector and we are excited to work with them to expand their offering into condiments. We’re looking forward to seeing the response from customers as the products launch into store in Asda.”
Martin Tilney, senior commercial director for Del Monte UK and Europe, said: “Our collaboration with D2 International has resulted in a versatile store cupboard staple with a delicious creamy, tangy flavour, making it an ideal condiment whether you enjoy it on salads, in sandwiches and wraps, for dipping or as a recipe ingredient. D2 international shares Del Monte’s commitment to deliver affordable products using fresh ingredients with no compromise on quality.”
