Tapping Into Global Flavors: Franklin Farms Unveils Island Style Pineapple Teriyaki Balls

|

Franklin Farms®, a leader in plant-based protein, has introduced a new addition to its ever-expanding portfolio—Island Style Pineapple Teriyaki Balls. Known for crafting wholesome, veggie-forward products, Franklin Farms continues to ride the wave of growing demand for plant-based foods that boast both flavor and simple, clean ingredients.

This new offering is not only delicious but also nutrient-dense, packing 12g of protein and 5g of fiber per serving, all while being cholesterol-free. The combination of pineapple, onion, carrot, and peppers, mixed with a savory tamari sauce taps into two major culinary trends: Asian and Island flavors. These new flavors provide consumers with a tropical twist on the familiar, making plant-based eating not only nutritious but also exciting.

“We are thrilled to introduce our Island Style Pineapple Teriyaki Balls, which blend bold and approachable flavors that are trending globally,” said Aaron Stamp, CEO of Franklin Farms. “This new addition offers a bright and balanced taste with teriyaki and sweet notes of pineapple, providing a flavorful, nutritious option made with real vegetables.”

According to a 2024 Innova Market Insights Report, Asian flavors are driving growth in sauces, soups, and ready meals, while a separate report notes that pineapple is emerging as a novel flavor that appeals to adventurous consumers. By tapping into these trends, Franklin Farms is solidifying its place as a brand that offers not only high-quality, plant-based proteins but also exciting and contemporary flavor profiles.

What sets Franklin Farms apart is their commitment to clean labeling. The Island Style Pineapple Teriyaki Balls are made in an SQF Certified Facility in the U.S.A., using non-GMO ingredients and no preservatives, artificial colors, or flavors. They also contain 75% less fat than traditional chicken teriyaki balls, making them a healthier alternative to conventional meat options.

Franklin Farms started as a simple mushroom farm in Franklin, Connecticut over 20 years ago. Their mission has remained consistent – to create exciting meatless meals from field to table. Following the recent success of their Falafel and Cuban Style Black Bean & Plantain Balls, Franklin Farms is confident this latest product will continue to attract health-conscious consumers seeking quality plant-based proteins.

In addition to their signature veggie balls, Franklin Farms offers a wide range of plant-based products, including veggie burgers, tofu, seitan, tempeh, and plant-based tuna. This is a company grounding their product offerings in the most significant trends the industry is seeing: compelling flavors and wholesome ingredients labels. Buyers, keep and eye on Franklin Farms!
