Alliance, TE MANA™
Lamb from New Zealand

TE MANA means prestige and authority in Maori and it is regarded as ‘food from heaven’. TE MANA LAMB™ is the result of a ten-year farming programme in New Zealand. While breeding sheep to be healthier and better adapted to high country environments, Alliance has discovered a sheep with a different type of fat, an intramuscular fat, higher in Omega-3 with Wagyu beef‐style marbling.

The free-range lamb is raised at high altitude on the pastoral land of the South Island in spring, and then grazes on chicory pastures in the summer. It’s during those last thirty days living on the chicory pastures that the higher levels of Omega-3 and polyunsaturated fats are produced. The result is a milder tasting, premium quality lamb, that’s versatile to cook with. TE MANA LAMB™ won the Innovation Award for New Zealand’s Most Innovative Food in 2017 and the New Zealand Food Safety Primary Sector Products and Frozen categories at the New Zealand Food Awards in 2018. Classic Fine Foods has selected this range because it gives the opportunity to chefs to come back to naturally fatty and versatile products while the industry has been breeding out fat to get super lean products with a very mild taste which are hard to cook with.

WESTHOLME
AUSTRALIAN WAGYU BEEF

Westholme is the true expression of heritage and craftsmanship of Australian wagyu beef producers, perfecting Westholme for years to deliver a unique tasting experience. Westholme is a premium wagyu beef from Australia, bringing consistency through a new grading system, MSA. It enables the final score to evaluate not only the marbling of each cut but also the entire process, from station to plate. Each single carcass is graded on eating quality, with regards to tenderness, juiciness, flavour and overall liking. The grade can be 3, 4 or 5 star and each cut is labelled accordingly. Classic Fine Foods is proud to bring the first Australian wagyu beef with such a level of consistency and eating quality to the market.

CINQ DEGRES OUEST
SHELLED AND FLASH FROZEN BLUE LOBSTER

Perhaps, you already know the Cinq Degres Ouest Canadian Lobster, so why not try their new Blue European Lobster, coming from the UK, Ireland and France? Using the same breakthrough technology, the lobster meat is removed from the shell through an innovative high pressure process. It is then cryogenically frozen so the flavour and texture are both kept intact. Cinq Degres Ouest’s unique technology does not shock the lobster and protects it from stress –making it possible to obtain incomparably sweet and succulent quality meat. It can be prepared raw - sashimi, carpaccio, sushi – as well as steamed, pan-fried or oven baked. Proven to be exactly the same quality as fresh time and time again in blind tastings, the product offers chefs a convenient solution as the product is easy to store and prepare with no shelling and a short defrost time. It guarantees you the ultimate easy cooking experience, as well as great value for money and portion control.

CANDIA
CREAM CHEESE FOR CHEFS

100% made in France, Candia cream cheese has been created for chefs by chef; in collaboration with François Galtier who has won the third place at the World Pastry Cup 2019 as part of the Belgian team. Made from 55% dairy cream and 30% natural cheese, this product is truly unique and different as it has been developed for a professional usage whilst most existing products on the market are a large version of products originally made for consumers. This new product is extremely creamy with a rich and milky taste thanks to high quality fresh milk. Its creamy texture makes it easier and faster to incorporate into any preparation than any regular cream cheese. There is no need to mix the cream cheese alone, saving time by mixing directly with other ingredients. It is also less salty and when whipped, the texture of the product is maintained. With this product, Classic Fine Foods helps chefs save time and increase productivity.

BONDUELLE
MINUTE RANGE

In some countries, it is unfortunately extremely hard to get great quality fresh vegetables due to the  warm climate. Classic Fine Foods bring a high quality and effective solution with the Bonduelle Minute range. This product range is pre-cooked and frozen –to use, chefs only need to thaw them inside the chiller overnight or thaw them at room temperature, and they are ready to use in 1 minute, thus the name Minute range! For huge banquets and functions, this Minute range is especially useful as condiments/sauces can be added right to the frozen vegetables & gently mixed in, chefs can then leave them there to thaw naturally—or can keep them in the chiller overnight if they need bigger batches. All they need to do is to take them out to thaw and they are ready to serve right away.

PONTHIER
FRUIT PUREES

Maison Ponthier’s aim is to produce fruit purees which are as close as possible to the taste, colour and smell of the original fruit. The company doesn’t use any additives (colourings, preservatives, flavourings) to guarantee the naturalness of the products. Priority is given to purees with 100% fruit and when some sweetening is required, a maximum of 10% sugar is added and Maison Ponthier only uses 100% natural pure cane sugar. The company only sources the best raw materials from producers and long-term partners offering the best nature has to offer and fruit varieties associated with a specific climate and terroir. Maison Ponthier flash pasteurises all its products to guarantee the highest levels of food safety. Thanks to a perfected knowledge of this process, the taste of the end product is not altered. Flash pasteurisation also enables Maison Ponthier to offer products with a longer shelf life (30 months before / 15 days after defrosting for the frozen range and 15 months before / 12 days after opening for the chilled range). Maison Ponthier is now available from Classic Fine Foods, in seven different countries.

PCB CREATION
PURE EMOTION

Discover Pure Emotion by PCB Creation, a whole new range of finished decorations and DIY decorations based on nature. Without any colourings, Pure Emotion will meet all your expectations when it comes to the visual aspect, taste, work methods and infinite application possibilities. For this amazing range, PCB uses the freeze-drying process which consists of two main steps: quick freezing of the product and sublimation in water. Compared to other food-drying preservation processes such as dehydrating, freeze-drying allows the fresh colour and taste of products to be preserved. It also enables around 95% of the nutritional qualities from the fresh product to be preserved (notably elements sensitive to heat and oxidation), whereas dehydrating only preserves around 50%. Now available from Classic Fine Foods, this is a truly innovative range opening new possibilities for pastry chefs.
