Seasonal Produce With summer getting well under way seasonal produce is at its best, it means extra flavour, extra crunch and extra juiciness – all super-fresh and great value.

UK Cherry Tomatoes 602401 250g Punnet

Cherry tomatoes are a smaller variety of the common garden tomato that are generally sweeter than the larger fruits. Although usually red, yellow, green and black varieties also exist, and make a colourful addition to summery salads.

UK Romanesco Cauliflowers 600162 1x8

Beautiful lime green Romanesco is somewhere between broccoli and cauliflower in flavour and you can generally substitute it for either. It has a nuttier, sweeter edge that children tend to like, and is rich in fibre, vitamin C and antioxidants.

UK Raspberries 601631 1x125g

A member of the rose family, raspberries have a wonderfully intense, sweet taste, and many consider them to be the finest flavoured of all the berries. They are an essential ingredient in the classic English dessert, summer pudding, and their flavour combines well with that of other berries.

UK Cucumbers 601181 each

Cucumbers belonging to the same family as melons and squash, and are technically a fruit. Most often used raw, try adding to salads, a crudité plate or marinate Cucumbers in oil, vinegar and spices. They also pair particularly well with mint and dill.

#Menu Trends New mega trends of convenience, foodie culture and eating out technology have emerged this year.

These trends join healthier eating, indulgence, informality, provenance & sustainability and value scrutiny. The eight mega trends influence all other trends in the industry.

Convenience is now driving new product development across channels and operators, fuelled by the growth of food to go and increasingly time-poor consumers. Foodie culture is the new norm across the country, driven by increased travel, experiential wants and food emerging as a determinant of self-identity. Eating out customer technology, whether delivery, ordering or payment, is now having an impact on eating out business models.

Mega Trends shape all other trends in the Eating Out market. Lifestyle trends, including healthier eating, a ‘credit-debit’ mentality and indulgence, determine which cuisines appeal to consumers. Cuisine trends, in turn, guide the evolution of both food and drink product trends.

Warm – Upcycling food ingredients / smaller portions / mindful eating Hot – High Protein Lifestyle / Smaller Plates Everything / Counter dining and bar side dining Emerging – Adventurousness / Clean – Eating & Drinking / Day Part Blurring Established – Flexitarianism / Free – From / Demand for more authentic cuisines Peaked – All you can eat / Food Challenges / Paleo Diet

Categorisation of food trends!

Split into four different maturity stages, the first is ‘warm’, which includes new trends which may end up short-lived or develop into hot trends. Hot trends are prominent in trend hubs such as major cities, but can prove to be unsustained or not reaching mainstream appeal. Emerging trends have reached a greater critical mass around the country. Established trends have broken into the mainstream and may, in some instances, go on to develop into new mega trends, which shape all other trends in the industry.

Cuisine Trends for 2017

Demand for authenticity is now an established trend around the country. Consumers across the UK are demanding authentic foods from around the world, and this is fuelling the growth of regional, specialist and adventurous concepts and new product development .

Major cuisine influences coming from Asia, the Americas and new pockets of Europe. Greek and Eastern Mediterranean cuisines are also identified as growth areas.
