The demand for gluten-free products is on the increase. A recent report revealed that one in 10 consumers would like to see more gluten free options on menus.
By not catering for this growing market operators could be missing out on an opportunity to drive profits.
What is gluten intolerance?
Coeliac disease is an intolerance to gluten found in wheat, barley or rye. By damaging the gut, it can prevent normal digestion and absorption of food. If left undetected, Coeliac disease can lead to anaemia, poor bone health and weight loss.
The Caterer’s Solution
Swedish premium frozen cake manufacturer Almondy has a range of gluten free tertas and cheesecakes to help operators cater for this expanding market and allow Coeliacs to indulge without jeopardising their health.
