In the UK, the trend of "Comfort Foods with a Twist" is gaining momentum as chefs and restaurants creatively reinterpret classic dishes. Integrating floral and botanical flavours into traditional comfort foods adds a sophisticated twist to classic dishes, such as incorporating chamomile or lavender into desserts like sticky toffee pudding or apple crumble. Chefs are experimenting with bold and intriguing flavour pairings. For example, the combination of sweet and savoury elements, such as pairing figs with rosemary and black pepper, is creating exciting new takes on comfort food classics. By offering a range of #NaturallyFabulous extracts and flavours, our #TeamHitchen enables the creation of sophisticated, modern takes on traditional products that resonate with today's consumers. Let's work together on your NPD! Contact us https://buff.ly/4el6u6l #ComfortFoods #FoodTrends #FoodAndBeverageIndustry
