The three new products are made with 50% traditional cheddar and 50% cheese alternatives. The range includes Mild Cheddar, Mature Cheddar and Coloured Cheddar flavours, which are available in 6 x 2kg catering bags.

Catering Essnetials says they are ‘perfect’ in a variety of dishes including classics such as loaded jacket potatoes, cheese toasties, pizzas, cottage pie, pasta bakes, dirty fries and lasagna.

Rachel Porter, group marketing manager at Country Range Group, said: “We’re always looking for the right products to add to our Catering Essentials portfolio to provide great functionality, while helping caterers balance costs without compromising on flavour, texture and taste.

“Grated cheese is a vital ingredient for so many caterers, especially in the education sector on a daily basis, so these latest additions to the brand should prove a massive hit in kitchens.”
