Coffee Lovers, Chew This - Hot Coffee Ginger Chew

June 19th, 2008

Coffee Lovers, Chew This
MARINA, Calif., June 11, 2008- The next time you’re craving a hot cup of coffee but someone has taken the last drop from the pot, reach for a Hot Coffee Ginger Chew. Delivering a smooth roasted taste and throat warming heat reminiscent of a freshly brewed cup of coffee, Hot Coffee Ginger Chews are the new cup-less coffee creation from The Ginger People.
Just like your morning cup o’ Joe, Hot Coffee Ginger Chews are stimulating and delicious mood-boosting treats! These warm and soothing chews are made from Arabica and Robusta coffee from East Java, one of the finest coffee growing regions in the world. We’ve balanced this all natural coffee chew with just the right amount of fresh ginger to create the sensation of a fresh hot cup of your favorite brew.
Beyond perfectly brewed flavor, these snappy sweets have the added perk of oodles of antioxidants. Research suggests ginger and coffee are both among the best food sources for an antioxidant-rich diet. Antioxidants are thought to help prevent diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s disease and macular degeneration because they can neutralize free radicals.
Hot Coffee Ginger Chews join The Ginger People’s award-winning candy line, which includes North America’s #1 selling ginger candy, Original Ginger Chews. Available in 3oz resealable bags and 4.5oz shelf-friendly boxes, you can grab your next Hot Coffee break at natural and specialty stores nationwide, including Whole Foods Markets. Also available at www.gingerpeople.com
The Ginger People is the leading brand of ginger products in North America. It is owned by Royal Pacific Foods of Marina, California. Royal Pacific Foods was established in 1984.

The Ginger People Win sofi Silver Award

June 19th, 2008

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Ginger People Win sofi Silver Award
MARINA, Calif., June 2008- The Ginger People were selected as a finalist by the National Association for the Specialty Food Trade (NASFT) in its annual awards competition honoring outstanding specialty foods. The winning nod went to The Ginger People’s Baker’s Cut Crystallized Ginger Chips. It was selected as a Silver Finalist in the Outstanding Baked Good, Baking Ingredient or Cereal category. Regarded as the Academy Awards of the specialty food trade, the competition received over 1,500 product submissions. Less than 10 percent, or around 125 products, from around the world were named as finalists.
“We are particularly proud of this award because crystallized ginger is our specialty. We’ve been marketing it for over 20 years,” says Abbie Leeson, general manager of The Ginger People. “Everyone at our factory is delighted about the award. It’s an affirmation of our commitment to quality. This is an ingredient that we’ve sold to professional chefs for many years. Home chefs can use it as well to create any of the increasing number of recipes out there that call for crystallized ginger.”
Baker’s Cut Crystallized Ginger Chips are a spicy-sweet alternative to chocolate chips, nuts or dried fruits in cookies, cakes, muffins, scones and breads. It can also be incorporated into other recipes, such as baked chicken, sautéed carrots and fresh fruit salads.
The Ginger People is the world’s only producer of closed-kettle, artisan-style crystallized baby ginger. This unique, small-batch process captures all of the flavor that would otherwise be lost using the large open-vat cooking method. The Ginger People’s Australian factory was the first in the world to achieve HACCP accreditation, the gold standard for ensuring manufacturing safety and product integrity.
The Ginger People is the leading brand of ginger products in North America. It is owned by Royal Pacific Foods of Marina, California. Royal Pacific Foods was established in 1984.
