GOURMET NEWS JUNE 2015 www.gourmetnews.com SFF PREVIEW 2 6 Wild Garden Hummus for Convenient Healthy Eating All over the world, consumers are looking for healthy alternatives for quick snacks. Fast food restaurant sales are declining, and eating clean and going gluten free is on the rise. But in this busy day and age, even the healthiest people need a fast solution. That's where Wild Garden Hummus comes in. Wild Garden understands that living a healthy lifestyle isn't always easy. Work, kids, activities and stress in general can force otherwise healthy people to take shortcuts when it comes to their health. Now with the exclusive Wild Garden Snack Boxes, consumers can indulge in a healthy, delicious snack without taking any time out of a busy day. These Snack Boxes are unique, convenient and come with three varieties of gluten free chips and one line of pita chips. High in protein and fiber, Wild Garden Hummus is lower in calories than most hummus. It's a great-tasting snack that's packed with flavor and nutrition. With no preservatives or added ingredients, Wild Gar- den is the healthiest choice and the only shelf-stable hummus on the market, which makes eating on the go healthy and easy. But what else does Wild Garden have that others don't? Quality without compromise. From quick mid-day snacks and lunches to dinner for an entire family, Wild Garden Hummus is a versatile super-food that consumers crave. Whether they're serving up a quick chicken wrap or getting creative with homemade flatbread, Wild Garden adds incredible flavor without the guilt. Consumers will be delighted to find that a dollop in their deviled eggs or a tablespoon added to their favorite sauce elevates any dish for even the most refined (or picky!) palate. Wild Garden Hummus is now available in six new gluten-free flavors. For more information, contact Mark Smith at 708.298.3810 or mdsmith@ziyad.com.

It will be an unfor- gettable Tortuga Moment for everyone," said Monique Hamaty-Simmonds, Brand Development Manager for Tortuga Interna- tional Holdings Limited and daughter of the founder. Tortuga International Holdings Limited is a subsidiary of the Jamaica Pro- ducers Group.

The line of tropical treats made by Tor- tuga International Holdings includes Tortuga Rum Cakes, in such flavors as original golden with walnuts; chocolate; coconut; banana; key lime and pineapple. They're baked from a generations-old family recipe, featuring a special five-year-old Tortuga Rum aged in oak barrels.

In addition to retail outlets around the world, Tortuga Rum Cakes are sold in on-board gift shops of more than 100 cruise ships and in gift and gourmet stores throughout the Caribbean and North America. During the past Easter weekend, Hamaty-Simmonds showcased the Tortuga dessert lines on the US-based HSN TV network over two days, which re- alized sales far above the company's ex- pectations. That was the second time since December, 2014 that Tortuga prod- ucts were featured on HSN. For more information, visit booth #261 during the Summer Fancy Food Show.
