Visitors to the IDDBA booth (#4743) are invited to sample new products and learn about:
-
- The NEW Gayo Azul Chili Pepper Slices
- Made with high-quality ingredients and tradition, the new Gayo Azul Chili Pepper Slices come in convenient slices and are a perfect topping for sandwiches or melting on a burger. Made with whole milk, it has a rich, buttery, and slightly spicy flavor.
- Gayo Azul’s range includes Gouda, Edam, Cotija, Queso Blanco, and other authentic cheeses that bring a touch of Latin flavor to any dish.
- The NEW Ivy’s Reserve Salted Farmhouse Butter
- Wyke Farms, a fourth-generation, internationally acclaimed producer of England’s finest Cheddar since 1861, is proud to introduce Ivy’s Reserve Salted Farmhouse Butter into the U.S., exclusively available in select Whole Foods Market stores from now through August.
- Ivy’s Reserve Salted Farmhouse Butter is round and indulgent, with just a pinch of salt to enhance its richness. This butter is perfect for toast and makes an exceptional choice for baking, topping vegetable dishes, and incorporating into recipes. It is based on a century-old, award-winning recipe created by Ivy Clothier, the namesake of Ivy’s Reserve Butter and matriarch of Wyke Farms. This family recipe, perfected by Ivy in the 1930s, remains a staple in the family today.
- The NEW A Dutch Masterpiece Rembrandt 12-Month PDO.
- A Dutch Masterpiece, the award-winning cheese that is a work of art, debuts A Dutch Masterpiece Rembrandt 12-Month PDO. This Gouda, made using milk from North Holland and stamped with PDO (Protected Designation of Origin), ensures the cheese is crafted with the traditional quality and characteristics of its geographical region. Rembrandt is aged 12 months, featuring a smooth, bold flavor with caramel notes and a hint of crystallization.
- The New Rembrandt 12-month PDO is an exciting and flavorful cheese that further enhances our authenticity and dedication to give consumers a high-quality product. A Dutch Masterpiece cheeses are as much a work of art as the innovative and prolific Golden Age painters for which they are named.
- The NEW Gayo Azul Chili Pepper Slices
Josh Rosen, Brand Manager of FrieslandCampina Consumer Dairy, says, “The new items debuting, including Ivy’s Reserve Salted Farmhouse Butter, Royal Hollandia Chili Pepper, and Gayo Azul Chili Pepper slices, are just a few of the exciting items visitors will see at the robust and exciting FrieslandCampina IDDBA booth this year!”
