12 Finsbury Food Group Annual Report & Accounts 2017
Disney As a long-term partner of the Disney brand, we have taken a leading role in supporting Disney’s strategy to inspire healthier choices for families and we have recently relaunched our celebration cake range with an innovative reduced sugar recipe. Our new range is the first in the UK to launch with Disney Kitchen branding and we continue to drive innovation and consumer enjoyment of the Disney brand in cake.
Mars Mars has a wide portfolio of confectionery brands and we have worked in collaboration to develop an innovative cake range. The Galaxy and M&M cakes are built around key elements of these classic brands which provide the consumer cakes that meets most consumer occasions.
Vogel’s Vogel's range of 'clean label’ breads are crammed to bursting with seeds and grains. Alfred Vogel was a pioneering Swiss nutritionist who created the first Vogel’s recipe in the 1950’s. He passionately championed natural ingredients, which is why Vogel’s loaves are baked without added sugar, emulsifiers, enzymes, or artificial preservatives or flavourings. To this day we share his commitment to tasty food and healthy living inspired by nature. The unique way we bake Vogel’s means it’s tremendously tasty toasted.
