World Foods

“The pandemic has ultimately hit the reset button on consumer behaviour, with diners now presenting a new-found love for global cuisines and a curiosity surrounding new foods and flavours from destinations that they haven’t even visited before. The love for global favourites such as American, Chinese and Indian fare remains, however consumers are increasingly broadening their horizons and exploring less familiar cuisines.

With limited travel throughout 2020-2021, consumers may not have been able to jet off on the holidays that they would have liked to. As such, they are seeking adventure through food experiences, with 52% of UK consumers saying that they’re more open to being experimental with their food choices than they were before the pandemic began*.

Whilst many caterers may consider integrating unusual dishes into their main menu or side dishes, the dessert menu can also play a pivotal role. Desserts are the final part of the meal and therefore are the overriding memory, so ensuring your customer finishes their meal in a positive way is key to keep them coming back for more.

Our Traditional Burnt Basque Vanilla Cheesecake is the perfect way for caterers to replicate the Spanish Summer. Originating from San Sebastian, a beautiful resort town in Northern Spain, the Basque Cheesecake, sometimes known as a ‘Burnt Cheesecake’, is a must-have on the dessert menu. Its rustic, golden brown colour is reminiscent of an authentic Basque Country dessert, and its rich, light and creamy texture is like no other.

Unlike typical New York Style cheesecakes which are baked slowly at a low temperature, this cheesecake is baked at a higher temperature for a shorter amount of time. The result? An amazing-looking cheesecake that’s as appealing on the eye as it is on the palate with a variety of textures. A torched top which provides an amazing, caramelised flavour, a crispy outer shell, and an irresistible wobbly centre.

Baked and supplied in a truly authentic and artisanal fashion, we also offer a Salted Caramel Burnt Basque Cheesecake with an added layer of sweet and salty Salted Caramel for consumers seeking a unique dessert with extra indulgence.”

English Cheesecake Company Launch White Chocolate & Raspberry Blondie Cheesecake

Masters of all thing’s cheesecake, English Cheesecake Company, has launched a new handcrafted White Chocolate & Raspberry Blondie cheesecake for the foodservice and hospitality sector.

The new White Chocolate & Raspberry Blondie Cheesecake comprises of a double cream enriched white chocolate cheesecake studded with fresh, juicy raspberries, topped with a layer of sharp raspberry coulis and finished with a drizzle of white chocolate fudge sauce and a scattering of squidgy blondie pieces – all sat upon the company’s signature crunchy biscuit base.

Josh Laurier, Operations Director at English Cheesecake Company is thrilled to add yet another flavour to the company’s foodservice portfolio:

“We have been looking at adding a new Raspberry Cheesecake to our range for some time now. We wanted there to be a nostalgic nod to a Raspberry Ripple whilst bringing it right up to date with an English Cheesecake Company twist with the addition of our blondies and white chocolate. This is an instant classic, and is the first of a range of new lines we have been working on. We can’t wait for everyone to try it!”

This fruity yet decadent cake is the perfect addition to Spring and Summer menus thanks to its striking pink appearance and flavours reminiscent of British Summertime. With customers looking for handmade, luxury desserts with flavours that are outside of the box, this is the ideal treat to serve in a café, restaurant or pub as a showstopping dessert which will get customers talking and coming back for more.

With the English Cheesecake brand having developed a serious following amongst cheesecake lovers in retail, adding not only the cheesecake, but also the reassurance of the English Cheesecake branding to a menu or front of house display, will highlight to your customers the quality that you are offering.

The new White Chocolate & Raspberry Blondie Cheesecake arrives frozen and is pre-portioned into 14 slices for complete convenience. It simply needs defrosting before serving, whilst the addition of a scoop of ice cream and extra white chocolate drizzle can be added for good measure.
