"Oscars"
DES
MOINES, Iowa, May 15, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Sunday
Night® Foods has won the Gold Award
in the Dessert Toppings category as part of the Specialty Food
Association's (SFA) 2024 sofi™ Awards, a top honor in the
$207-billion specialty food industry.
Sunday Night will be showcasing its
award-winning sauces June 23-25 at
the Summer Fancy Food Show in Booth #1446 at the Javits Center
in New York.
"sofi Gold Award winners have accomplished something really
extraordinary–they've risen to the top of incredibly competitive
categories," said SFA President Bill
Lynch. "Those that earn top marks from our judges really are
the best of the best."
Sunday Night's Sea Salt Chocolate
Premium Dessert Sauce was selected by specialty food experts,
buyers and media based on taste–including flavor, appearance,
texture and aroma–ingredient quality and innovation. All tastings
were anonymous and held at the Rutgers Food Innovation Center.
"Winning a sofi™ Gold Award is a testament to our craft in
perfecting a silky, glossy chocolate sauce from the finest pure
ingredients," said Eileen Gannon,
Founder and CEO of Sunday Night Foods. "This award is the ultimate
stamp of approval; we're extremely proud and grateful."
This is Sunday Night's third sofi
Award in three years, coming on the heels of sofi New Product
Awards in 2022 and 2023, as well being named a NEXTY Finalist this
past February.
Like all of Sunday Night's
luxurious, velvety sauces, its Sea Salt Chocolate Sauce is made
without corn syrup, preservatives, palm oil or emulsifiers. Its
premium ingredients–Callebaut chocolate and cocoa, fresh cream and
butter, cane sugar, sea salt and Nielsen-Massey pure vanilla–create
an award-winning balance of true flavors: rich, robust chocolate
with fragrant, fresh-brownie cocoa notes rounded by hints of
buttery caramel, vanilla and a sea salt finish.
"Our Signature line, led by our Sea Salt Chocolate Sauce,
launched in retail grocery just nine months ago, and it's now the
fastest growing brand in dessert toppings," said Gannon. "We aim to
elevate and energize this category to satisfy shoppers' growing
demand for premium, clean-ingredient indulgence."
More than just an ice cream topping, Sunday Night Sauces can be
quickly crafted into homemade cakes, pies, puddings, frostings and
drinks by adding a few pantry ingredients. Over 60 recipes can be
found at SundayNightFoods.com.
Sunday Night's Sauces are
