What’s Gourmet Food Without Hawaiian Hot Sauce?

Friday, July 17th, 2009 - Posted by Brynn Jackson

Who cares?! No one will eat it once they’ve tried the same foods with Hawaiian hot sauces from Arturo’s of Hawaii. Whether in the mood for a straight hot sauce or craving island flavor, dazzle your taste buds (as soon as they cool down) with Hawaiian hot sauces from Arturo’s of Hawaii.

“Mmm,” “yum!” and “ah ah ah hot! hot!” are the pleasant sounds you’ll hear when you see someone tasting hot sauces from Arturo’s of Hawaii. Even the hot sauces that sound tame can carry the same heat-infused punch as the others.

Not to be confused with pansy hot sauces from other places, Arturo’s of Hawaii makes sure that everyone knows how much of a wallop their hot sauces pack. Take something relatively safe like mango sauce and give it an Arturo’s of Hawaii twist. The same sauce becomes a smoking hot sensation they call “Vicious Mango Hot Sauce”. The vicious speaks for itself. The delicious speaks louder but only a taste of this mighty molten mango sauce will allow someone to fully understand.

Very adult tastes require something a little stiffer instead of just fiery. For stout and steaming, try the Hawaiian hot sauce with the best name ever. “The Great Red Shark Pineapple Chipotle BBQ Sauce” is a mouthful but of more than just words. Take a fingerful to your lips and a thousand words race to mind. Unfortunately, your brain is too busy trying to figure out whether to tame the heat with water or cry out in a sense of “yum” as if this glorious concoction were the original ambrosia (nectar of the gods).

If that’s not enough, …click here to read What’s Gourmet Food Without Hawaiian Hot Sauce?…

How You Can Cash In On The Sugar Free Foods Craze

Friday, May 29th, 2009 - Posted by Brynn Jackson

Why Eat Sugar Free Foods?

Need to know why your customers are choosing sugar free foods over regular options? Sugar free is the way to go for many dieters and health-conscious eaters these days. Obesity and the threat of diseases it causes is one motivating factor for eating sugar free foods. Many also eat sugar free foods to slow or entirely prevent the onset of diabetes.

More than just the underlying health benefits of sugar free foods is the weight loss appeal that these foods bring. Sugar free foods are often made using sweeteners/sugar substitutes that break down quicker than natural sugar. Because of this, the sugars are not stored as starches and do not stay in the body as fat. Eating sugar free foods is a great way to enjoy the foods that you love without the guilt!

Are Sugar Free Foods Really Free of Sugar?

Oddly, not always. Usually sugar free foods contain a sugar substitute that has better effects than normal sugar (sucrose or saccharose) but still has the same sweet taste. Sugar substitutes used in wholesale sugar free foods can include any of the following sweeteners among others:

  • Sucralose (Splenda or SucraPlus brand)
  • Aspartame (Equal or Nutrasweet brand)
  • Alitame (Aclame brand)
  • Acesulfame potassium (Sunett brand)
  • Saccharin (Sweet ‘n’ Low brand)
  • Stevioside
  • Agave syrup (a sugar alternative and natural sweetener)

Though these sweeteners may be in the food, they do not have the same effects of sugar (sucrose) and are therefore considered sugar free foods. Many natural and organic foods also claim to be sugar free or have no sugar added.

What Sugar Free Foods Are Popular With Customers?

Your customers will be amazed by the variety of sugar free foods available to them. When shopping for wholesale sugar free foods, consider some of these options:

  • Sugar free chili peppers
  • Sugar free desserts (cookies, puddings, etc)
  • Sugar free jellies and jams
  • Sugar free marmalades and preserves
  • Sugar free teas
  • Sugar free candy
  • Sugar free gum (dentist recommended)

Each of these foods plus the assortment of other sugar-free options keeps your customers happy and their taste buds satisfied. Offering sugar-free gourmet foods is a win-win for you when you choose sugar-free foods from these wholesale gourmet foods suppliers!

Why Are My Customers Going Gluten-Free?

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009 - Posted by Brynn Jackson

People with celiac disease (an autoimmune disease that rejects gluten) or dermatitis herpetiformis (a skin disorder linked to gluten) are often ordered to follow a strict gluten-free diet.

What Are Some Acceptable Gluten-Free Foods?

It’s very important that gluten-free foods contain less than 5 parts per million of gluten (the smallest detectable amount). It is also important that your customers like as well as trust the gluten free gourmet foods that they find in your store. To keep your reputation high, here are some gluten free gourmet foods that you can trust:

Gluten free cookies are available from many different vendors. These, like gluten free mixes, are made with gluten free flour.

Gluten free flour is derived from several plants, wheat almost never being a source. Gram flour and buckwheat flour are examples of gluten-free flours.

Though gluten is often used as a thickening agent, you will not find gluten in gluten-free jams, jellies, preserves or marmalades. Other thickening agents such as gelatin are used instead.

Gluten free bread mixes, gluten free pancake mixes, and gluten free muffin mixes keep the table happy in a gluten-free household. Your customers do not want to sacrifice flavor for their gluten-free diet so satisfy their taste buds with gluten free mixes in these flavors: Apple, Blueberry, Cinnamon, Corn, Cranberry, Raisin, Sweet Potato, Zucchini, Raspberry, Cherry, Banana, Flax.

How Can I Get Truly Gluten-Free Foods for My Customers?

Gluten and products containing gluten are numerous, therefore finding gluten-free products can be difficult unless these people know where to go for gluten-free products from a vendor that they trust. Certainly not wishing to harm this relationship between you and your customers, these gluten-free gourmet foods vendors will guide you through finding the gluten free foods that are right for you.

Why Do My Customers Want Low Carb Foods?

The low carb diet is one of the most popular diet regimens today.

In a world that constantly monitors the appearance of people, low carb foods are gaining popularity because of their effects on weight loss.

What Wholesale Low Carb Foods Are Available And Popular?

You can find a wide range of low carb foods that you can buy wholesale to provide to your customers. Your customers may even be surprised by some of the options that are available. There is no need for your customers to sacrifice flavor when choosing gourmet foods that are low in carbohydrates.
