Brakes, the UK’s leading foodservice wholesaler, has launched a range of texture modified meals to meet growing demand from care and hospital caterers as well as schools and other institutions.
With mounting pressure on kitchen staff, it can be challenging to provide a variety of viable options to meet all dietary needs, but the latest products from Ashford, Kent, England-headquartered Brakes make it easy for caterers to serve tasty, nutritious meals that meet IDDSI Level Four requirements.
Distributed frozen, the range includes five meat-based and five vegetarian options. The meat-based products are Chicken Casserole, Shepherd’s Pie, Chili Con Carne, Fish & Potato Pie, and Beef in Bolognese Sauce, while the vegetarian options are Lentil Bolognese, Vegetable Casserole, Mixed Vegetable Curry, Creamy Cauliflower Florets, and Moroccan Chickpea Stew.
Each box of ten meals – either meat or vegetarian – contains two each of the five different meals, allowing caterers to offer a varied selection for customers who require texture modified meals.
Brakes, which was acquired by Houston, Texas, USA-headquartered Sysco eight years ago, has been in business since 1958. Sysco employs approximately 8,000 people serving more than 20,000 customers from 30 distribution centers across Britain.
