Funnybones Adds Grace Retail Products to Wholesale Portfolio

Funnybones Foodservice is expanding its extensive portfolio with the addition of several products from parent company, Grace Foods

Previously available exclusively through retail channels, Grace Hot Pepper Sauce is made with a hot, tangy blend of habanero cand cayenne peppers. Ideal for adding a fiery kick to dishes, the 85ml bottle format makes it an ideal table condiment alongside classics like ketchup and mayo. This puts the power in the hands of the customer, giving them a greater sense of control to customise their meal to the desired heat. Beyond the original Hot Pepper Sauce, Grace Foods’ Hickory Smoke and Garlic infused variations will also be available through Funnybones.

Also making its’ wholesale debut is the highly anticipated Grace Tropical Rhythms sparkling. This fresh, fruity drink emulates the vibrancy of the Caribbean with lively bubbles and is available in three flavours; Fruit Punch, Pineapple Ginger, and Sorrel Ginger. Joining Funnybones’ existing range of still individual and 1 litre packs of Grace Tropical Rhythms, the new sparkling format can help operators bridge the gap between demand for health-conscious drinks, fruity flavours, and ever-popular sodas.

Funnybones Development Chef, Tom Styman-Heighton, is excited about the new products:

“Because these products have been exclusively available as retail items, we’ve been able to see the demand from end consumers first-hand. The interest has been really exciting, which is why we’re so keen to include them within our wider Funnybones range, making them accessible for operators and wholesalers. Whilst in a retail setting Grace Tropical Rhythms and Grace Hot Sauce have also developed brand recognition, so we’re sure customers will have the existing knowledge when ordering, automatically giving these products a head start.”

Funnybones Expands Range of Tortillas

Funnybones Foodservice has added an ambient, wholesale-packaged selection of flour tortillas to its La Mexicana range

Previously only available in frozen format, the new tortillas arrive ambient so they can be used right away. The new packaging means the versatile tortillas can be bought directly by operators or sold on in wholesale and cash & carry outlets.

Easy to fold and perfect for wraps, tacos, burritos, fajitas, and quesadillas, the tortillas are available in three different sizes to cater to unique requirements; 6, 10, or 12 inches in diameter.

Funnybones Development Chef, Tom Styman-Heighton, explains the motivation behind the new tortillas:

“La Mexicana is our exclusive brand which focuses on specialist Mexican solutions. Tortillas are a fundamental aspect of this cuisine, so we’re constantly looking at how we can expand and improve our offering. The new ambient tortillas give customers more flexibility and whether they utilise them themselves, or sell them on, they can be confident of consistent high quality.”

The new tortillas join Funnybones’ existing portfolio of flour and corn tortillas, tortilla chips, and hard taco shells.
