These new Cathedral City chilled products have been created in partnership with Summit Foods in the UK as a series of snacks perfect for consumers to enjoy out of the house this fall. The snack product range consists of the Cathedral City Cheddar & Ham toasties, Cathedral City Cheddar & Ham croissant and the Cheddar and Red Leicester toasties. The products leverage the brand's cheeses into a new category and comes as part of its continued foray into the licensed product market to satisfy increasing demand for convenient food items.
Senior Brand Manager Abi Armson spoke on the Cathedral City chilled products saying, "With consumers becoming increasingly time poor, shoppers are looking for quick, convenient and fresh meal solutions to satisfy their everyday food needs. Our new Toasties and Croissant tick all these boxes, whilst retaining the high quality and delicious taste that you would expect from Cathedral City. Our exciting partnership with Summit Foods allows us to continue expanding Cathedral City’s presence beyond the cheese aisle, and we can’t wait for shoppers to try these fantastic new products.”
