La Natura Fine Foods Unveils “Nathan’s Best Hot Mango Salsa” at the Toronto Gourmet Food and Wine Expo; Now Available at Summerhill Market


 LA NATURA FINE FOODS TEAMS UP WITH 8 YEAR OLD NORTH TORONTO GOURMAND TO RELEASE BEST NEW SPICY SALSA

Toronto Specialty Foods Purveyor Unveils “Nathan’s Best Hot Mango Salsa” at the Toronto Gourmet Food and Wine Expo; Now Available at Summerhill Market

For Immediate Release, November 14, 2012 –The world of gourmet food continues to evolve, as does Toronto’s tastes.  La Natura Fine Foods’ newest release, called Nathan’s Best Hot Mango Salsa after an 8 year-old North Toronto foodie collaborator, is a testament to flavor and an inter-generational passion for cooking.

“Food unites people, and that’s what La Natura Fine Foods is all about,” says Vikas Sharma, Proprietor and chief foodie. “It was great to have a passionate young kid in the kitchen, and the results are spectacular. This product is a natural addition to the La Natura family. It embodies sharing and having great food experiences.”

Nathan’s Hot Mango Salsa continues a company tradition of naming products after their original collaborators (Jen’s Pesto, Mama Rita’s Eggplant), and is named after the son of the company’s development manager. After watching Sharma experiment and test food ideas in his mom’s kitchen, the 8-year-old North Toronto gourmand tried his hand at making his own hot sauce. Impressed with the results, Sharma invited the youngster to collaborate and the “spicy” edition of La Natura’s best-selling Salsa Verde was born, albeit with a twist.  Habaneros and mango add a slightly sweet, lingering heat that is perfect on its own, with chips, avocado, rice, vegetables, chicken or fish.

La Natura Fine Foods is pleased to announce that products will now be available at Summerhill Market (446 Summerhill Avenue, Toronto). 

Vikas Sharma is available for interviews.  Visit the La Natura Fine Foods booth at the Toronto Gourmet Food and Wine Expo taking place November 15-18, 2012 at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, North Building, Downtown Toronto. Visit www.foodandwineexpo.com for hours and admission details.

La Natura Fine Foods @ The Gourmet Food & Wine Expoi

La Natura Foodies,

I hope that you have been enjoying the autumn thus far.

The autumn is my favourite time of year because it reminds me of my favourite things in this life ... food and drink.

As many of you know, we will be celebrating this autumn season with you by taking part in the Gourmet Food & Wine Expo at The Toronto Convention Centre this week, staring with the VIP Event on Thursday evening (November 15) right up until Sunday (November 18).

We will be there to sample La Natura love ... including our newest kid on the block, Nathan's Hot Mango Salsa (see photo below), which got rave reviews this past weekend at Pusateri Fruit Market (Church and Wellesley) and Mabel's Bakery & Specialty Foods (Roncesvalles Village).

You will also have the opportunity to purchase La Natura goodness right there at the event.

Sales and Sampling Manager, Abby Sawh, as well as our new Business Development and Marketing Manager, Sarah Margolius, will be there with me to ensure our success by making us the stand-out food operation at the Expo.

How will we do it?

By offering you the very best ... through our first-hand knowledge and experience of our product; we make it by hand ... we know it.

Great food goes with great wine ... and we can chat about how to entertain this Holiday season by using  La Natura Fine Foods Salsas, Tapenades, and Antipasti to treat your friends and family to great snacks.

We are revolutionizing the world of Social Snack Food ... and we want to share it with you.

We hope to see you this weekend at the Gourmet Food & Wine Expo.


Vikas and the La Natura Fine Foods Team!
