FROZEN food producer Nanna’s has released a frozen avocado product.
The 800g re-sealable bag contains ripe Hass avocados, peeled and diced into chunky pieces, snap frozen and available in the supermarket freezer section from $9.50.
There are about five avocados in a pack, with no pip or peel, just diced avocado flesh.
Nanna’s, a brand of Patties foods, confirmed that the avocados used within the package are sourced from Peru.
“Our suppliers have been selected because they meet Australian Food and our company's ethical sourcing standards,” a Nanna’s spokesperson told Fairfax Media.
“Nanna’s adopts global sourcing of quality fruit to deliver the quantities of frozen product required by retailers, and consumers.”
Nanna’s says it makes economic sense for consumers who will have access to year-round avocado with no bruising or wastage.
Nanna’s frozen fruit senior brand manager, Sue Clohesy, said Nanna’s frozen Avocado Pieces are perfect for a wide range of occasions.
“They’re great for making guacamole, an impromptu smashed avocado breakfast, creamy dairy-free smoothies and desserts, or just tossing through a salad,” Ms Clohesy said.
“And because they have a light citric coating, they won’t lose their beautiful avocado colour.”
