Production of White Chocolate Pistachio Crunch Snowflakes at the Nestlé factory (PR)
You will have to believe us when we say that this is not an easy job, not easy at all.
To try all the new products that come out to the Israeli market (and sometimes outside of it as well), to taste in front of everyone, deliveries and more deliveries, paper bags that accumulate in the office (and at home), a never-ending feeling of satiety.
Seriously, it's harder than it looks, and no one is paying you to go to the gym, or compensating you for the FOMO that quickly develops in your mind.
For all the articles in the "New on the Shelf"
section, however, the "New on the Shelf" section, for its tasters, curious and loyal consumers, has set off again, determined and mission-oriented.
And this time - a precise match that closes every corner and a particularly deadly cooperation.
Yes, we are very eclectic.
enjoy your meal!
Desserts, Papa John's and Movenpick

The excellent pizza chain and the international trade group are teaming up for a dessert effort consisting of the "pizza tap".
The sweet collection, in a limited edition of course, includes a desirable combination between the warm dough of Papa John's and the spreads of Movenpick - "The Pizza Hard" includes eight sticks of dough and milk spread with hazelnuts, "Pistachio Rolls" is based on fresh dough with pistachio cream, Mascarpone cheese and milk spread sprinkles with hazelnuts, while "Salted Caramel Rolls" and "Nougat Rolls" do the same with salted caramel cream and nougat cream, respectively.
Price: NIS 31.90 for dessert, NIS 79.90 together with a family pizza, or NIS 119 for two pizzas and dessert.
On the face of it, it seems that a hot dough dessert is less suitable for closing a pizza-based meal, but this thesis collapses time and time again in the face of reality, and this case is no different.
Papa John's good dough also works well in the "sticks" configuration plus a sweet creamy dip, and the rolls (we tasted the salted caramel version) add to all this goodness a softer and more delicate texture, and a more invested general feeling.
In two words: hot match.

Cocktail case, Carmela and Spicehouse

The delivery company and the cocktail laboratory collaborate to form a "Home Bartender" cocktail box, which combines ready-made mixes, fresh additions and an upgraded casing.
Spicehouse and Carmela box (NIS 299) includes six cocktails (gin lychee roses, Woodstock Daisy, gin raspberry mull, negroni, taste tube baby and pineapple margarita), decorations, a bag of Himalayan salt, toothpicks and additions of fruits and vegetables such as lime , finger lime, orange, pineapple, grapes, colorful chili, white zota, edible flowers, rosemary, mint and cucumber, as well as a link to Yotam Shilo's tips and tricks video.
The same case, plus a small shaker and two festive foot glasses, will cost an additional NIS 80.
This is, without exaggeration, one of the most valuable gifts created by the corona market in recent years, and one that remains valuable even now, long after the epidemic has faded from the headlines.
The box is inviting, the cocktails are excellent as they are (mainly the Negroni of course, but also the special gin games and the margarita that no one has the strength to make without help), and the addition of spices and crops makes everything more experiential, and even more invested.
In one word: Cheers!
Ganeden ice cream

The new Israeli venture, led by Adam Ziv ("Boza" ice cream), aims to shake up the familiar world of ice cream with a cleaner, healthier, better and tastier alternative.
The pints (473 ml, NIS 35-39) of "Ganeden" Produced without milk, cream or other animal products, and with fewer calories and sugar, while using the formula developed by Ziv, which simulates a creamy and rich texture, based on dietary fiber.
The opening concoction sent for tasting includes chocolate (bittersweet, dark and mature), pistachio (deep and real), "Ma Haloz" (hazelnuts with chocolate fudge, in a fun texture game and nutty flavor), coconut cream and passion fruit (great and light), and vanilla (Which was somehow a little less successful in the mouth, despite the natural platform for it).
In four words: really not just for vegans.
Milk substitutes, Rude Health

The local milk substitute division expands shelves with the landing of Rude Health products from the UK.
The move, led by Italiano Holdings, includes five organic and kosher pioneers - an almond drink, a brown rice drink, a tiger nut drink, a soy drink and a toasted almond and oat drink - without preservatives, food colors, authorizations and other additives.
Price: NIS 12-15.
The durable cartons were opened with curiosity, both due to the exploding Londonism and due to the relative diversity of the supply available in the market.
Most of them did their job well, felt "real" in coffee or in a bowl of cereal, and some - almond and oat, I'm talking about you - stepped up and provided a legitimate option for sipping straight from the fridge.
In three words: return the mandate.
Iced coffee and capsules, Cafe Joe

The Israeli coffee chain is refreshing itself with new capsules, and a drink can.
The capsules, which are offered for sale in Delek's convenience stores and on Cafe Joe's website, include the "House Blend" (100% Arabica beans with a honey finish), the "Ultra Strength" (full body, balanced bitterness and mild acidity with dark chocolate flavors), "Columbia" (rich body, sweet-bitter-sour) and "Vanilla" (100% Arabica and hint of hazelnuts).
Price: NIS 18 for ten capsules.
Among them, the house blend and the Colombian version excelled in restraint and elegance, while the vanilla capsule mixed well in the shake, and this holding provided the caffeine addict needed every afternoon for a real boost.
Alongside them, the chain placed "Ice Joe" in its refrigerators, a latte-flavored drink with milk, made from espresso extracts.
The can - NIS 10 for 250 ml - was opened even before returning to the car, sipped quickly and left a good, moderate, caffeinated-sweet taste.
World infusions, Pompadour

The international tea brand is preparing for winter with a new series of infusions, "Embracing the World".
The launch includes three heat-oriented flavors - Moroccan mint, Spanish orange and Turkish apple - and caffeine-free (NIS 12.90 per box).
The first, with a 90-10 ratio of mint to mint, is aimed at the "contrast between the desert and the sea" and provides a very refreshing drink, the second, with oranges, apples, hibiscus and blackberry leaves, was deep and special, and mixed well even in a decanter full of ice, while the Ambassador The Turkish mixed in apples, wild rose, orange peel and licorice, and was sharp and strong.
In three words: with upside down, and without it.
