Food Union launches new ice cream products
“For us at Food Union, ice cream season is all year round. Building the bridge between seasons ensures increased relevance in people’s lives. We enjoy delighting our consumers with new products that not only compliment their summer experience, but also offer a form of sensory comfort and escape in the winter,” Normunds Staņēvičs, CEO of Food Union, Europe, said.
“And in times of uncertainty, people value what is familiar and trusted. Therefore, the flavors this autumn and winter season are inspired by all-time classics, childhood memories, and customer’s favorite desserts, in family friendly and environmentally friendly packaging.”
Food Union’s new ice cream products come in a variety of sizes and formats.
In Latvia, the Pols brand is now offering two new products. One is a vanilla ice cream with condensed milk, and the other is a cotton candy ice cream with marshmallows. Both ice creams are now available in 500 ml tubs.
Karlsons, one of Latvia’s best-selling ice cream brands, added two new products in large family-sized formats.

Both ice creams are now available in 850 ml recyclable and biodegradable cardboard packaging.
