September 30, 2013—Knouse Foods, an established grower-owned fruit cooperative, has expanded its line of Musselman’s® Single-Serve Apple Sauces to include three new convenient sizes, 2 oz., 4.5 oz. and 6 oz., to fulfill the evolving needs of foodservice. The classic 4 oz. cup is also still available. The single-serve apple sauces are ideal as a nutritious complement to any meal or as a to-go convenience offering for commercial restaurants and non-commercial operations.
Known for its exceptional flavor, Musselman’s Apple Sauce is made from 100% American-grown apples. All varieties are gluten free and have a 24-month shelf life.
Additional benefits specific to each product format include:
· 2 oz. Unsweetened Apple Sauce Cup – NEW
Convenient for healthcare/medication pass and daycare/K-12 after-school care because of the smaller portion.
· 4 oz. Available in many flavors
Proven to satisfy as either a snack or side dish to any meal.
· 4.5 oz. Unsweetened Apple Sauce Cup – NEW
Ideal for the K-12 segment and commercial restaurants offering Kids LiveWell menu offerings as it meets the new USDA guidelines for a full serving of fruit.
· 6 oz. Available in three flavors (Original, Unsweetened and Cinnamon) – NEW
Named the BIG CUP, it is the perfect size for adults and growing kids who crave more to eat (rebate available through the end of the year).
