Street food brand brings the carnival to consumers
A new brand Carnival Kitchen is bringing a street food inspired range to consumers this autumn, with a selection of tantalising flatbreads, pies and bites that are bursting with flavours from around the world.
The range, which launched into selected UK Waitrose in September and will be available in Asda stores from 18 October, has been designed to provide shoppers with world street food adventures from across the globe featuring flavours – from India to Thailand and Mexico to the East Coast, USA.
The products have been made specifically to be eaten hot or cold and are ideal when heated in a microwave or oven. They can be consumed at home and on the go, making them perfect for snacking as well as a great light meal alternative.
Consumers can choose from a Philly Steak & Cheese Pie, made with pulled beef, peppers with a Monterey Jack and Philly cheese sauce, or a Tandoori Chicken Pie with succulent chicken, tomato, onion and coriander in a tandoori sauce – both wrapped in a turmeric flatbread-style dough. Also wrapped in the same tasty flatbread-style dough, is the Jerk Chicken Flatbread with spinach and smoked garlic, and the Red Thai Pork Flatbread with tomato and peppers in a Thai red curry sauce. The range also includes Piri Piri Chicken and Cheese & Jalapeño bites which are both encased in a crunchy coating and can be enjoyed as a snack or side dish.
Mike Holton, brand manager at Carnival Kitchen, said: “Our extensive market and customer research showed us that consumers are still looking for snacking experiences to deliver bigger and better taste adventures, while also featuring quality ingredients that have the flexibility to be enjoyed both hot and cold. This is why we created a range that provides big-hit flavours from around the world and really delivers on taste when heated.”
The range will be available at selected Waitrose and Asda stores across the UK from Wednesday 29 September and Friday 18 October, respectively.
