MONTEREY, Calif. — Mastronardi Produce was highlighting its large range of products at the International Fresh Produce Association’s Foodservice Conference on July 29.

The company was displaying its Angel Sweet tomato line with a dip and the firm’s proprietary Aloha peppers, said Chip Wujek, director of customer development for Mastronardi Produce.

The company is also promoting its Honey Bombs, Sugar Bombs and Lolli Bombs. “The two new varieties are the Honey Bombs and the Lolli Bombs, and those will be expanding this upcoming fall,” Wujek said.

The Honey Bombs are golden cherry tomatoes that are ripened and packed on the vine, and are perfect for snacking and salads, according to the company. Lolli Bombs are a yellow, on-the-vine, snacking cherry tomato.
