Country Range Group boosts desserts selection with five new lines

Country Range Group has introduced five new pre-portioned desserts, all of which showcase special twists on some international classics. 

Hummingbird Cake – a popular style of cake in the Caribbean and the Southern United States since the 1970s – comprises a lightly spiced sponge made with banana and pineapple,  filled with zesty cream cheese, finished with cream cheese frosting and topped with pecans.

Neapolitan Layer Gateau comprises layers of chocolate, vanilla and strawberry mousses on a base of chocolate satin sponge.

White Chocolate & Raspberry Tart combines white chocolate ganache and raspberry compote within a chocolate pastry case.

Lemon & Blueberry Brûlée Tart consists of a sweet pastry case filled with a smooth lemon custard mix, swirled with a blueberry compote and featuring a brûléed finish.

Affogato Dessert (vegan and gluten-free) has vanilla mousse on an espresso biscuit base, all topped with chocolate espresso mousse and finished with dark chocolate flake.

Commenting on the new launches, Country Range Group head of marketing Emma Holden said: “The dessert course is the final chance for caterers to impress their guests and leave a positive lasting memory, but get it wrong and it can end up being the final straw of a meal out.

“Moreover, with the growing trend of dessert houses there is always an opportunity for an affordable coffee and cake! That’s why it’s imperative, especially in the spring and summer months, that caterers make sure their dessert menus hit all the right notes visually and flavour-wise.

“Our latest innovative launches come frozen for ease of use and are on point with the latest global dessert trends. They’re elegant, eye-catching and, most importantly, guaranteed to delight consumers from a taste point of view. We see them being huge crowd-pleasers over the spring and summer months.”
