Eat Kinda has a new flavour going into Hell Pizza, Taranaki Bio Extracts launches a B2B ingredients range, and Garage Project adds a better-for-you beer.

Kiwi start-up EatKinda has launched a new flavour of its plant-based cauliflower ice-cream in Hell Pizza stores across the country.

The Chocolate Swirl flavour will join Strawberry Swirl, which is on sale at the pizza chain, replacing its Mint Choc Bikkie in the interest of keeping SKUs streamlined.

It will also be in a home-compostable container, priced at $6.50.

New Zealand-based bone broth manufacturer Taranaki Bio Extracts has launched a new B2B ingredients range named Butler.

Butler brings together the company’s beef bone broth and extracts range of ingredients aimed at food manufacturers.

The ingredients offer high protein content, collagen, glucosamine, and amino acids such as glycine and proline, says the company. It also includes beef bone collagen extract, beef leg bone extract, beef mixed bone extract, beef bone broth, and edible beef tallow.

Garage Project is about to launch its first low-carb beer, adding to its better-for-you range led by its 0% Tiny, which its says accounts for over 30% of non-alc beer sales in New Zealand and is the brewer’s single biggest-selling beer.

The ‘all killer, no filler’ Good Shout is 99% carb free, low gluten and has 4% ABV and Garage Project says it took 18 months to perfect.

It will be priced at $24 for a six-pack on line, and is expected to be distributed in the grocery channel over the coming months.
