13th August 2004 Nimbus moves inclusions upmarket with the launch of Chocolate Coated FruitsInnovative inclusions manufacturer Nimbus Foods has added a touch of luxury to its latest product range. Chocolate coated fruits are whole freeze dried fruits covered in assorted chocolate coatings and can be used within a product application or for decorative purposes. The range includes five fruits - strawberry, cherry, raspberry, blackcurrant and blueberry - which can be coated in plain, milk or white chocolate. "This really is a luxurious range that can take an everyday product to the height of indulgence," said David Wynne of Nimbus Foods. "The products offer a stunning combination of shape, colour, texture and flavour and can be used in wide range of applications, including bakery, cereals, confectionery, dairy, desserts and ice creams." The fruits are the latest addition to the Nimbus core range of around 50 inclusions products which include biscuit, cereal, crocant, fudge, honeycomb, meringue and toffee. --Ends--
