ONTARIO, CANADA - Shoppers are about to get closer to heaven than they ever have before, as Pure Flavor® has taken the tomato category by storm with the launch of its Cloud 9® Bite-Sized Fruity Tomatoes, which recently garnered an International Taste Award due to its sweet and unique flavor.
“We taste hundreds of tomatoes every year searching for something special—unique colors, shapes, sizes, but most importantly flavor. From the first taste of the Cloud 9 variety, we knew we had found it,” said Pure Flavor President Jamie Moracci. “We have created the Cloud 9 Standard for quality and look forward to consumers enjoying this premium and hand-selected, bite-sized tomato every day.”
Perfect for snacking or incorporating into meals, the Cloud 9 tomatoes are grown in state-of-the-art greenhouses in Canada, the U.S., and Mexico, according to a press release, and are available to be shipped throughout North America in a variety of formats beginning February 1.
After conducting numerous extensive product trials in key growing regions, Pure Flavor has mastered the art of growing this sweet, unique, and colorful tomato year-round.
“From the first bite, you know this will be memorable: it’s a fresh snacking experience that comes from an unwavering commitment to quality,” said Executive Vice President Matt Mastronardi. “We hand-select a limited quantity of the most vibrant tomatoes so you can enjoy the bold, balanced flavor that sweetens any snack or home-cooked meal.”
Attesting to the delicious, fruit-like flavor of these bite-sized tomatoes, Pure Flavor’s Cloud 9 was recently awarded the Superior Taste Award Certification from the International Taste Institute in Brussels, Belgium.
A jury of over 200 celebrated chefs from across 20 countries analyzed the variety and praised it for its lingering sweetness, original shape, ideal size, intense color, juicy texture, and versatility.
“It’s a strict process where all products are blind tasted; this means that the samples are anonymized, we do not see the packaging and do not know the brand name nor the producers’ name—we don’t even know from which country the product comes from. This forces us to be completely objective as we do the sensory analysis. Only truly good products are certified,” stated one of the jury members, Stijn Roelandt, Sous-Chef at Hof van Cleve.
This distinction follows 16 months of hard work put into developing the Cloud 9 brand and ensuring that shoppers can thoroughly enjoy all the subtle aspects of the tomato.
“The award-winning Cloud 9 tomatoes burst with a fruity sweetness that enriches any dish or eating occasion, every recipe you create deserves to be a showstopper,” said Chris Veillon, Chief Marketing Officer, Pure Flavor. “Our team has developed dozens of recipes, conducted in-person tasting surveys before the pandemic, and hundreds of digital preference surveys during the Love For Fresh campaign late last fall, to create engaging web and social content in lifestyle situations—we needed to effectively communicate that Cloud 9 is not just another salad topper. It’s the sweetness you crave with the quality you deserve. We think it’s a tiny taste of heaven™.”
I, for one, see no reason to wait to stock your shelves with these delicious offerings that will surely leave your shoppers feeling like they’re on Cloud 9. As more products wiggle their way into the hearts of shoppers, keep checking with AndNowUKnow.
