Foodservice supplier Country Range is launching two vegan pastries ahead of Veganuary 2020.

The products – a vegan sausage roll and a vegan pasty – will be available exclusively through the 13 independent wholesalers that make up the Country Range Group.

Country Range’s new products comprise:

  • Country Range 6” Frozen Vegan Sausage Roll: a meat-free vegan sausage-style filling made with soya protein wrapped in a vegan-glazed puff pastry roll. Pack size: 66 x 132g
  • Country Range Frozen Vegan Pasty: potato, swede, onion and meat-free mince in a vegan gravy, wrapped in a hand-crimped pastry case and finished with a vegan glaze. Pack size: 24 x 286g

“Veganism has been a key trend across all sectors of the food industry for the past few years now and campaigns like ‘Veganuary’ will only help increase the number of those opting for a plant-based diet in the future,” said The Country Range Group brand manager Vasita Jantabutara.

“As the UK’s leading independent foodservice brand, it’s vital we’re a step ahead of all the trends and continue to help our customers with the latest and greatest products. Our latest duo tick the box flavour-wise and are ideal for caterers looking to increase their vegan food-to-go options.”

The Country Range Group is made up of 13 independent wholesalers: Birchall Foodservice, Blakemore Foodservice, Caterite Foodservice, Creed Foodservice, Dunns Food and Drinks, EFG Foodservice, Harvest Fine Foods, Henderson Foodservice, Savona Foodservice, Savona Foodservice South West, Thomas Ridley Foodservice, Trevors Foodservice and Turner Price.
