Fresh Solutions Network, LLC® (FSN) announced that Side Delights® Amazables! won the Joe Nucci Award for Product Innovation in the eighth annual Produce Business Innovation Award in December, which focuses on Product, Packaging and Process.
The judging took place in Boca Raton, FL, conducted by editors and staff of Produce Business, and the awards were presented at the Thought Leaders Keynote Breakfast during the annual New York Produce Show and Conference on December 11 at the Javits Center in New York.
FSN's winning product, Side Delights® Amazables!, is a package of gluten-free microwavable potatoes available with two sauces created to complement the taste of a Russet potato and leverage top foodservice flavors.
"No company had ever developed a microwavable potato that tasted like an oven-baked potato, but with our Krisp film technology, which shrinks around the potato, these Amazables get crisp on the outside and cook fluffy on the inside. The result is an oven-baked-like potato in 6 minutes," the article in Produce Business stated. "Most important is the convenience of the product — perfect for vending machines on school campuses, hospitals, and company break rooms — a single potato that can easily be microwaved."
"We developed Amazables! in response to the consumer demand for convenience, quality, and sustainability," said Kathleen Triou, president and CEO of Fresh Solutions Network. "We are honored to be the 2024 Joe Nucci Innovations Award winner, which showcases fresh produce options that stand out with health and sustainability in mind."
