Aulds new range of desserts with Thomas Lowndes & Co.

Aulds Delicious Desserts is launching an exciting new premium, handcrafted frozen dessert using COURVOISIER[R] VS Cognac from leading culinary alcohol supplier, Thomas Lowndes & Co.

New Rhubarb and Custard Tart with COURVOISIER[R] VS Cognac is part of a 5-strong range of luxurious, premium quality frozen desserts that have been developed to celebrate the first anniversary of Aulds re-branding.

Paul Stewart, Marketing Manager at Aulds Delicious Desserts, comments: "We used COURVOISIER in the new Rhubarb and Custard Tart because it adds value to the product and reinforces its premium positioning. The smooth rounded flavour of COURVOISIER greatly enhances the taste of the dessert and complements the tartness of the rhubarb giving a luxurious and indulgent feel. COURVOISIER is also recognised worldwide for its premium quality and is synonymous with out range of desserts that are also indulgent, premium and hand made using only the finest quality ingredients."

The product comprises a sweet shortcrust pastry base, layered with rhubarb compote followed by a rich, creamy custard infused with COURVOISIER at 60% ABV. The dessert is finished with a delicate sprinkling of mixed spices and is pre-portioned into 14 slices.

Other new products within the range include 'Millionaires Cheesecake', 'Mandarin & Ginger Cheesecake', 'Rustic Black Forest Gateau' and 'Fruit Fusion'. The latter is an exciting combination of the classic flavours of gateau and cheesecake in one innovative concept. A carnival of colourful fruits including cranberries, apricots, cherries and sultanas provide a stunning visual appearance while a delicate sprinkling of pumpkin seeds adds a deliciously different note.
