Eurostar Commodities launches Della Terra brand

New brand vegetable flour pizza mixes launched in response to increased consumer demand – Offer 20% off throughout September

Eurostar Commodities, one of the UK’s leading suppliers of the finest commodities and innovative ingredients, is launching its own brand of vegetable flour pizza mixes, Della Terra. To celebrate the launch, Eurostar Commodities is offering 20% off all orders during September 2018.

Della Terra allows pizza makers to create flavoursome and colourful pizza bases that are higher in fibre and a truly different pizza experience. The move comes as part of an exciting trend coming from Italy, where customers buy a slice of pizza with a flavoured base that increases both taste and texture, and creates a stand-out look and feel with purple, green, or orange pizza bases.

Philip Bull, Managing Director of Eurostar Commodities, said, “My interest in these mixes began when I first noticed this trend in the village of Guardiagrele. On bringing it back here to the UK, the response has been so overwhelming that I decided to create my own brand. We are passionate about these bases and want to create a pizza culture where people see flavoured bases as an option on their menu, enjoying a much fuller flavour.”

Della Terra Pizzas will also have ‘healthy’ credentials with higher fibre and protein content. Aimed at busy kitchens, cafés, restaurants, and bars, the mix produces a dough with better extensibility to improve ‘rolling out’/’stretching’ and gives a characteristic crisp and fragrant taste.

The range comprises 4 variants combining 100% natural vegetable powder with natural yeast and ‘00’ Italian pizza flour available in 3kg bags:

  • Pizza Barbabieltola – Beetroot pizza base mix – ‘00’ Italian pizza flour, 100% natural beetroot flour
  • Pizza Patata Dolce – Sweet potato pizza base mix – ‘00’ Italian pizza flour, 100% sweet potato powder
  • Pizza Farro Spelta – Wholemeal spelt pizza base – ‘00’ Italian pizza flour, wholemeal spelt
  • Pizza Spinachi – Spinach pizza base mix – ‘00’ Italian pizza flour, 100% spinach powder

Della Terra is available from Italian wholesalers across the UK, or direct from Eurostar Commodities at: www.eurostarfoods.co.uk – During September 2018 20% off all orders to celebrate the launch.
