Fruit Heroes

fruitheroes

These are delicious and healthy. Perfect for lunch boxes. They come in a variety of flavours. Even the adults at Frost loved them. Fruit Heroes are a healthy, natural, fruit snack bar for children. They have now uncovered and addressed parents’ most popular questions regarding their children’s health and diet.
 After conducting a hugely successful research study in March, Fruit Heroes wanted to further their campaign to encourage children to eat fruit and clear up parents’ concerns about their child’s nutrition. Therefore, Fruit Heroes,  with the help of Dietician and Nutritionist Dr Sarah Schenker, held a live Facebook web chat to answer parents’ questions and healthy queries. Here, Dr Schenker clears up the difference between the difference between good and bad sugars.

Good sugars, also known as intrinsic sugars, are naturally found in food. These are mostly fructose found in fruit and vegetables as well as lactose found in milk and dairy products. Most other sugars found in food are artificially added such as glucose and dextrose. These are termed free sugars and too much of these types of sugars can cause problems with blood sugar and insulin levels which is linked to obesity and diabetes so these are the ones to watch out for.

Two Chicks

Two Chicks has launched a new product called Liquid Whole Egg –  a carton of pasteurised free-range eggs in liquid form. Following the success of the original Two Chicks Liquid Egg Whites. The carton has the equivalent of 10 liquid whole pasteurised eggs and is very convenient. It makes great scrambled eggs, is perfect for anyone looking for short-cuts in the kitchen and ideal for any bakers (especially as Bake Off season has just kicked off!)  – You literally just pour out of the carton and get baking.  It’s also ideal for quick and easy meals, such as scrambled eggs and omelettes.

Bottled in vibrant and colourful illustrations, Echo Falls Sparkling Fruit Fusions are the perfect bubbly addition for summer celebrations.

These exciting new options come in two distinct flavours including White Peach and Mango, a refreshing and tropical fusion with a crisp, smooth finish and Summer Berriesa sweet fruity rosé with aromas of raspberry and strawberry.  Why not try White Peach and Mango Sparkling on ice with a slice of lemon for a citrus hint and a sprig of mint for freshness, and serve Summer Berries sparkling in a flute with a strawberry to really bring out the flavour.
