🌟 Celebrating a Successful Partnership with Altoni Kelderman NV! 🌟 Initially, we had our doubts—was Germany really ready for another pasta brand? But after some market research and hosting a tasting session to compare the best foodservice brands, we were convinced. Altoni stands out with its exceptional taste and high-quality Italian ingredients. 🍝 However, it wasn’t just the products that won us over—it was also the people. The Altoni team brings passion, authenticity, and great company to the table, making this partnership a true pleasure. Here’s a quick look at our journey so far: 1. A Surprising Start: One year ago, the first customer in Germany started with Kelderman’s potato specialties and croquettes—a delightful unexpected hit! 2. Growing the Portfolio: Next, we introduced frozen pasta and culinary dressings from Maurice Matthieu - adding variety to our offerings. 3. On the Menu: Just this month, two of the lasagna dishes made it onto the menu of a renowned restaurant chain, a proud milestone for our partnership. 4. Expanding Horizons: In September, we attended our first German fair, Rolling Pin, where we caught the attention of many chefs. With so much interest and momentum, we’re excited for the road ahead. Here’s to a long-term partnership with Altoni, bringing authentic Italian flavors to new markets! 🍝 Verenice Vandewall Georg W.

Bridging Generations: The Newstalgia Movement in Food As we step into 2024, we're witnessing an exciting culinary phenomenon where the beloved flavors of yesteryears are getting a modern facelift. It's a movement we're calling "Newstalgia" — a blend of nostalgia and innovation that's captivating taste buds across generations. From the gourmet cupcake resurgence echoing its early 2000s fame to the return of the espresso martini, capturing the spirit of the '90s, Newstalgia is about more than just food. It's about the memories these flavors evoke and the new ones we're creating as we bring them into the modern era. Our latest video, "Retro Revolution: The Newstalgia Wave in 2024's Food Scene," dives into how chefs and brands are reimagining classic dishes and treats, infusing them with contemporary twists for today's discerning diners. But it's not just about the food. It's about the connection and continuity these dishes represent, offering comfort and a sense of shared experience in our rapidly evolving world. Why does Newstalgia matter? Because it's a testament to the power of food to transcend time, bringing together the comfort of the past and the excitement of the future on a single plate. Watch now to see how 2024 is blending the best of both worlds, proving that sometimes, looking back is the best way to move forward. #Newstalgia #FoodTrends2024 #RetroRevolution #CulinaryInnovation #FlavorFrenzy #TasteThePast #InnovateTheFuture
