Cauldron Butternut & Red Chilli Bites are a new plant-based snack product heading to retailers in the UK this month that will build on the success of the brand's previous meat-free food items.
The product starts off with butternut squash alongside chickpeas, red peppers and red onions with just a bit of mozzarella cheese before being infused with herbs and spices for additional flavor. The snack bites are thus meat-free yet satisfying with a high-fiber profile that's low in saturated fat and perfectly spicy. Shoppers in the UK can pick up the product at Tesco and Waitrose starting April 30, and from Sainsbury's starting May 7, 2025.
Head of Brands Lucy Grogut commented on the Cauldron Butternut & Red Chilli Bites saying, "We know plants are incredible, that’s never been in doubt. With our delicious Cauldron Butternut & Red Chilli Bites, we’re showing shoppers that nobody else can transform plants like we can. We have created another new flavour combo with the perfect balance of spices and herbs that bring the best out of our incredible veggies and set tastebuds alight. The Bites will add more vibrance, colour and excitement to people’s plates and we know that shoppers will love this new product."
