Rich Products

Rich Products has added another trend-forward option to its expansive menu for restaurant operators: the Gluten-Free Parbaked Detroit Style Pizza Crust. The new 9”x7” premium personal-sized crust satisfies growing consumer demand for gluten-free and Detroit style pizzas. Like other parbaked pizza crusts from Rich’s, the Gluten Free Detroit Style Crust offers operators the flexibility and ease of a freezer-to-oven format that bakes up reliably and consistently every time with minimal skill required.

Godshall’s

Godshall’s is debuting its latest bacon innovation, All-Natural Uncured Canadian Turkey Bacon, at Sam’s Club locations nationwide. Featuring a real wood smoked flavor from a blend of hickory and applewood, the bacon is gluten-free and contains no msg or nitrates, Godshall’s said. Sam’s Club customers can pick up two 10-oz packages of Godshall’s Canadian turkey bacon sold together at a retail price of $8.94.

Farmer Focus

Farmer Focus is expanding its pre-seasoned chicken line with three new, globally inspired flavors: Honey Jalapeño Chicken Party Wings, Black Garlic and Ginger Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs, and Caribbean Jerk Seasoned Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast. The original line — which included Zesty Peruvian Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast, Savory Chophouse Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs, Rich Red Curry Bone-in Skin-on Chicken Thighs, Toasted Lager Half Chicken and Lemon, and Cracked Pepper Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast — launched in March 2022.

Rubicon Bakers

For the first time, consumers nationwide can purchase Rubicon Bakers’ Vegan Lemon Raspberry Cupcakes at over 1,800 Kroger stores through a creative collaboration between Washington red raspberry farmers and the Certified B Corporation. The Washington red raspberry industry partnered with Rubicon Bakers’ Research and Development team to feature a Washington red raspberry puree in both the filling and icing that complements the citrusy lemon cupcake flavor. The cupcakes are packaged in a 4-pack clamshell with a suggested retail price of $5.99.
