PROVA introduces more than 30 allergen-free nut flavors
PROVA is a leading global manufacturer of vanilla, cocoa and coffee extracts and flavors for the food and beverage industries. Now the company offers more than 30 PROVA allergen-free nut flavors to address consumers’ nut allergy concerns. Flavor offerings include peanut, pecan, pistachio, coconut, pine nut, almond, cashew and hazelnut.
“Three million of the more than 15 million consumers who have food allergies need to avoid nuts to prevent allergic reactions that can be quite severe,” says William Graham, PROVA’s vice president, sales, North America. “Beyond understanding that nut allergies pose a serious medical concern, there’s the economic impact of children’s allergies, which is presently about $25 billion a year.”
