PARAMOUNT, Calif., March 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tattooed Chef (Nasdaq: TTCF) (“Tattooed Chef” or the “Company”), a leader in plant based foods, today unveiled its innovation line-up for 2022 coinciding with the brand’s presence at this year's Natural Products Expo West show, March 8-12 at the Anaheim, Calif. Convention Center.
Building off of a successful frozen portfolio in six categories featuring 78 products that included four of the five fastest moving plant based frozen food entrée launches in 20211, Tattooed Chef is now the fastest growing Frozen Health and Wellness brand2 and the number one Health and Wellness brand in Frozen Breakfast3. The new slate of innovation brings the total product count to 140 products in 10 categories now available in 2022.
Tattooed Chef is expanding out of the freezer aisle and releasing snacks that include plant based bars and chips. The new bar portfolio is a first-of-its-kind brain fuel oat butter bar powered with adaptogens that help to reduce stress, promote mental balance and provide long-lasting focus. The new tortilla chips are gluten free, grain free, and a better-for-you chip alternative that doesn't taste like an alternative.
Tattooed Chef is also expanding into new frozen product categories: Burritos, Quesadillas and Mexican Entrees. Drawing inspiration from classic Mexican flavors, the new products include a variety of tasty plant-based meat alternatives and ingredient combinations like the Plant Based Chorizo and Egg Burrito, the Plant Based Al Pastor Quesadilla and Plant Based Chicken Mole Enchiladas. In addition, the Company is significantly expanding its vegan line by incorporating vegan eggs and proprietary meat alternatives, such as plant based pork into various meals.
“Through our nostalgic innovation – creating meals and snacks that people know and love, now made healthier – we can tap into everybody’s plant based side,” said Sarah Galletti, the “Tattooed Chef,” Founder and Chief Creative Officer. “Breaking out of the freezer aisle in 2022 is a pivotal moment for Tattooed Chef as it furthers our mission to make plant based meals that are delicious and accessible to everyone.”
Building on its already versatile frozen product selection, the Company is also releasing new nutrient-packed meals, from globally inspired dishes such as the Japanese Breakfast Bowl and Plant Based Chicken Burrito Bowl to nostalgic fan favorites with a twist such as the Spiccolli Wood-fired Pizza and Cauliflower Spaghetti White Bolognese.
