The latest range of boxes include ‘back to education’, ‘the return of hospitality’ and ‘summer barbeque and al fresco dining’. Over the last six months the Essential Cuisine team have been tailoring ‘innovation boxes’ seasonally.

Jon Harvey-Barnes, senior business development chef at Essential Cuisine, said: “It’s been incredible to see so many requests come through, I feel like we’ve helped chefs across the country keep a positive mind-set over the last few months. The return of education and hospitality is imminent; myself and the rest of the team at Essential Cuisine are here to keep inspiring you.

“Whether you are a school caterer looking for allergen free solutions, or a chef in a restaurant looking to evolve your menu to contain more global flavours, we encourage you to get in touch to see how we can help you with our range of versatile, time saving ingredients."
