As consumers continue to seek restaurant-quality food experiences at home, demand for premium desserts and convenient entertaining solutions continues to grow.
Launched earlier this year, Tatua Crème Custard has quickly established itself as a valuable addition to the chilled dessert category, delivering the indulgence consumers want alongside the convenience and versatility valued by retailers, foodservice operators and manufacturers.
Rich, creamy and beautifully smooth, Crème Custard features a glossy texture, rich colour and delicate vanilla flavour. Designed to elevate every spoonful, it can be enjoyed on its own or used as the base for a wide range of desserts.
For supermarket buyers, the opportunity is clear. Consumers are increasingly looking for indulgent and convenient products; Tatua Crème Custard answers that demand with a ready-to-use solution that delivers excellent results. Its versatility makes it particularly relevant during the busy entertaining season. Whether served with fresh summer berries, layered into a trifle, poured over warm puddings, baked in custard tarts or transformed into a decadent crème brûlée, Crème Custard offers countless serving possibilities.
As households begin to prepare their Christmas celebrations and summer entertaining, products that save time while elevating the result become increasingly valuable. From a quick after-dinner treat to a festive showpiece dessert, Tatua’s Crème Custard helps consumers create memorable dessert occasions with minimal effort.
Also offering strong appeal for the foodservice sector. Chefs, caterers, cafés and bakeries need to save time in their busy kitchens, while maintaining quality. Tatua Crème Custard delivers a rich, authentic custard solution.
Available in a convenient 1kg pouch for retail and a 2 x 5kg bag-in-box format for foodservice and industrial customers, Crème Custard has been developed to meet the needs of multiple channels. Bakeries can use it as a filling or dessert component, while cafés and caterers can incorporate it into cabinet desserts, plated offerings and seasonal menu specials.
Food manufacturers will also appreciate the technical performance of Crème Custard. With a 12-month shelf life, it provides flexibility across production and product development. It is acid and
alcohol-stable, heat-stable, and freeze-thaw stable, allowing it to perform consistently across a wide range of applications. These benefits help manufacturers enhance efficiency while delivering high-quality finished desserts.
Customers have responded very positively to the versatility of the custard and the packaging. Food service customers have highlighted its suitability for applications such as custard squares and other baked desserts, while the 1kg pouch has been praised for being convenient and easy to use, allowing users to easily squeeze out every last drop, helping minimise mess and waste.
Tatua Crème Custard is gluten-free, Halal certified and supplied in packaging designed for easy storage and use. Once opened, the chilled product should be kept refrigerated and consumed within 10 days.
Proudly made in New Zealand, Crème Custard is another example of The Tatua Co-operative Dairy Company’s commitment to dairy innovation. Combining indulgence, convenience and performance, it has been developed to meet the evolving needs of retail, foodservice and manufacturing customers while delivering exceptional quality to consumers.
