HAUPPAUGE, NY (January 17, 2016) – Walkers Shortbread, the World’s Finest Shortbread since 1898, will exhibit at the 2016 Winter Fancy Food Show, January 17-19 at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco. Walkers will showcase its new Gluten Free offerings including its conveniently sized, all-natural Pure Butter and Chocolate Chip Shortbread portion packs and Holiday Shortbread Assortment. Show attendees can experience the Walkers Gluten Free items at booth 746.
Gluten Free aficionados will enjoy the new offerings that feature Walkers Pure Butter and Chocolate Chip Shortbread Rounds. Each portion pack conveniently hosts two shortbread cookies making it a satisfying snack to enjoy while on-the-go. The new Gluten Free holiday assortment brings Walkers back to the festivities for those that have had to give up gluten.
Walkers Gluten Free Shortbread debuted to critical acclaim, the first adaption to the Walkers traditional shortbread recipe in 118 years. The line replaces wheat flour with a blend of rice flour, maize flour, and potato starch, while retaining the same butter and sugar content as the traditional shortbreads. With less than 20 parts per million of gluten, Walkers Gluten Free Shortbread meets the FDA standard for gluten free food, with every batch tested to ensure compliance before its release. The line contains no genetically modified ingredients or hydrogenated fats, and is vegetarian and Kosher OUD. Walkers promises the pure butter taste and texture you love, just without the gluten.
Established in 1898 in Aberlour, Scotland, family-owned Walkers Shortbread is the leading brand of food exported from Scotland, and remains committed to quality, with human eyes on every facet of the baking process, and using only the finest butter made from the milk of free-grazing, small herd cows. To this day, members of the Walker family gather in their bakery to taste test the latest ideas, with only those deemed finest approved for production.
Walkers Shortbread appears at retailers across the country and is available for purchase online. For more information on Walkers, please visit www.walkersbuzz.com. To taste the latest products from Walkers, visit booth #746 at the 2016 Winter Fancy Food Show.
