Duda Farm Fresh Foods says its Dandy Celery Dippers product is available for foodservice. The company will be showcasing its new 5-pound bag size during the International Fresh Produce Association’s Foodservice Conference on July 25-26 in Monterey, Calif.
Last fall Duda launched Celery Dippers to retail audiences and saw the opportunity to bring the 2-inch fresh-cut celery sticks to foodservice operators seeking innovation in fresh-cut celery, according to a news release.
“Knowing how valuable our traditional fresh-cut celery items have been to our foodservice customers, it only made sense to also offer them the additional option of our 2-inch celery dippers,” Nichole Towell, senior director of marketing and packaging procurement at Duda Farm Fresh Foods, said in the release. “There is a unique versatility to dippers that can easily be implemented into existing menu items, but also opens the door to some new creative applications. We look forward to seeing everyone at the show and discussing the benefits of these petite-sized celery sticks.”
As with all Dandy branded celery products, the new item is grown from Duda Generations’ proprietary celery varieties, the release said. The product is also processed with water-jet cutting technology for a clean cut and shipped within 24 hours to ensure consistent quality and flavor, the company says.
