Dawn Foods UK and Ireland has expanded its range of easy-to-use fudge icings with two vegan-suitable fudge icings, both made with natural fruit flavours and colours.

A vibrant purple colour, Dawn's new Blackcurrant Fudge Icing can be used to create stunning Instagram-worthy bakes. The Blackcurrant Fudge Icing has a deep fruity flavour and pairs well with chocolate and vanilla as well as citrus flavours such as lime and lemon, or other sweeter fruits such as apple and plum. A popular and 'on trend' flavour across bakery and desserts, blackcurrant is regarded as a 'superfruit', full of vitamin C with a slightly 'tart' taste profile appealing to health-conscious consumers with a less sweet palate.

Also new from Dawn is a Banana Fudge Icing. With a rich colour for excellent shelf appeal, this classic and versatile all-natural flavour and colour fudge icing can be paired with many popular flavours such as sticky toffee and caramel, as well as popular speculoos biscuit. Banana works well with fruits too such as blueberry or cherry and of course, the familiar partnerships of nuts, ginger and honey. Dawn's recipe suggestions, using its new Banana Fudge Icing, include Banana and Caramel cupcakes or Pecan and Banana Cookies are available at www.dawnfoods.com/uk

Both the Blackcurrant and the Banana Fudge Icings are ready-to-use from the 10kg pail. They need to be warmed to 40-50°C for easy topping, filling, drizzling and piping across many types of products from large whole cakes to traybakes, muffins, cookies and cupcakes.
