THE RETURN OF THE TRADITIONAL SNACK ‘COCOA BREAD’
October
2011
This new product does not contain any hydrogenated fats, is low in salt and has only 160 kcal. Per piece, it fulfills the requirements of the new Food Safety Law
Barcelona, september 2011.- Europastry,
the Spanish leader in the production and sale of par-baked
bread, continues innovating to recover traditional
flavours. With back to school in September
comes a new version –both tasty and healthy- of the
classic bread with chocolate, which was the basic snack
for millions of Spanish children for decades.
In addition to the traditional distribution points
(bakeries), supermarkets and restaurants, the
Cocoa Bread may also be found in schools next
year as one of the first products to meet the
nutritional values established by the Food Safety Law.
These values, along which Europastry
has been working for years, are the absence
of trans fat, artificial sweeteners or stimulants, low
in salt and only 160 kcal. per piece (40 kcal
less than recommended by AESAN). Europastry, committed
to producing products of quality and healthy eating,
were pioneers in the market in 2008 by eliminating trans
fats from its entire product range as recommended by
Spanish and European food safety agencies.
This new snack has the backing of the Spanish Association of Dieticians and Nutritionists (AEDN) recommending the consumption of Cocoa bread in a balanced diet.
 The snack that is always ready
The Cocoa Bread is ideal as a snack because, being
a frozen product, it can be stored at home and only
needs to be thawed before eating and does not lose its
freshness.
This new product is a 60grs. roll, with a spongy texture,
is easy to digest and filled with chocolate.
With this launch, Europastry
has sought an attractive way to introduce bread in the
childrens’ diet , contributing to healthy eating
habits. According to nutritionists, bread is a fundamental
part of a child’s diet as it provides carbohydrates,
fibre, protein, vitamins and minerals. Experts recommend
eating between 220 g and 250 g of bread a day spread
over the different meals of the day.
