Frozen snack brand Pukpip has recently announced that their Real Frozen Bananas Dipped in Dark Chocolate are now available at online retailer, Vegan Kind. The company’s aim is to challenge the traditional ice cream category by tapping into the rise of “permissible yet indulgent frozen fruit snacks”.
“We combine real fruit and chocolate, with no added stuff, just simple and delicious, so consumers can feel good about treating themselves,” stated Zara Gugen, managing director at Pukpip. The online plant-based supermarket, Vegan Kind, has added Pukpip’s Vegan Certified Dark Chocolate Dipped Bananas to its ice cream section.
Breaking the mold for frozen desserts, Pukpip’s frozen bananas are a category first for UK retail, following sister brand Diana’s strong growth in the USA. Adapted in taste for the UK market, Pukpip’s Frozen Bananas Dipped in Chocolate were a standout product at the 2023 International Food and Drink Event.
“We are thrilled to secure our first online listing with Vegan Kind, with our Dark Chocolate Dipped Frozen Bananas,” said Zara. “We sampled more than 4,000 chocolate-dipped bananas at this year’s IFE and were blown away by the positive feedback from everyone, demonstrating the appetite for innovative, real fruit indulgence!”
Pukpip’s bananas are responsibly sourced and freshly frozen from the coastal region of Ecuador. The company rescues these bananas that would otherwise go to waste due to small imperfections on their skin, the wrong shape or size, or simply because there are too many on a bunch. These bananas find their true calling as tasty, chocolate-covered treats. The banana peels are then upcycled back into the ecosystem.
Pukpip Real Frozen Bananas are only 152-161 calories each and are great as a snack, treat, or dessert. The company’s Milk Chocolate Dipped Bananas have picked up a 2022 Great Taste Award. Currently available at retail in milk chocolate and dark chocolate, in multipacks of 3 at an RRP of £3.99.
In summary, Pukpip has successfully launched its new Real Frozen Bananas Dipped in Dark Chocolate with online retailer, Vegan Kind. The company’s innovative approach to frozen desserts sets them apart in the industry. Their bananas are responsibly sourced from the coastal region of Ecuador, and their Milk Chocolate Dipped Bananas have already won awards for their excellent taste. Customers can now indulge in these tasty treats as a snack, treat, or dessert, without any added artificial substances.
