Wall’s Pastry grows healthier snacking range

The 113g Chicken Scotch Egg, which was developed by Addo Food Group, is made with 100% British chicken, onion, garlic, nutmeg, and a blend of fresh herbs including sage, parsley and coriander coated in a golden crumb.

The product has also been developed as a healthier alternative, with 2.1g of saturated fat, 9g of fat, and 197 calories.

The Chicken Scotch Egg is the third in the Wall’s Pastry healthier chicken range, which launched in stores earlier this year.

Mike Holton, brand manager at Wall’s Pastry, said: “Our category research has shown that there is currently a gap in the market for chilled chicken pastry products and after seeing the success of our chicken pastry rolls, we wanted to continue to expand our range and provide consumers with an innovative and healthier twist on their traditional favourites.

“We’re really excited to be launching a new product that provides a healthier on-the-go and snacking alternative. Whether it’s a quick bite or a lunchtime treat, we want to offer a high protein snack to consumers who are looking for something a little different without any added guilt.”

The Chicken Scotch Egg retails at £1.
