Every Divina stuffed olive is carefully filled by hand in Greece. It's a process that speaks to the tradition, heritage and pride that the Greek community takes in their agricultural contribution to the world. Most of our stuffed olives are available in glass jars, deli cups or bulk pack sizes for foodservice, olive bars, or pack-out. #specialtyfood #olives #divina https://lnkd.in/gtnRKyd4

Fruit-forward flavors are a key trend emerging in the specialty food space, according to the Specialty Food Association. You can find this sought-after deep fruit flavor in Divina Greek Apricot Spread, which made the list in this trendspotters' report from the Summer Fancy Food Show. Leana Salama — SVP of Marketing and Communications at SFA — says, "Trends that start in specialty hit menus and mainstream retail shelves in the blink of an eye. So the trendspotters' observations from this year's show offer a snapshot into the future of not just specialty but all food and beverage." https://lnkd.in/gkp92gqX #fancyfoodshow #specialtyfood #foodandbeverage

Divina Greek Apricot Spread is a brand new addition to our award-winning and trend-setting line of specialty spreads. Sweet, sunny and slightly tart, it's made from Greek apricots — renowned for their fruity aroma and deep flavor — and not much else . Enjoy on cheeseboards, grilled sandwiches, glazed on veggies or served simply with toast or breakfast pastries. https://lnkd.in/evX7Q6VV

Divina Wild Mushroom Mix is a great time and labor saver for foodservice and prep food teams looking to add a meaty plant-based option to salad bars, pizza and pasta. A delightful and diverse blend (Nameko, Straw, Roundheads and Saffron Milkcap), we love the garlicky and vinegary marinade that adds brightness to a wide range of dishes. https://lnkd.in/eJ2N2-ri
