Denver, Colorado-based Cappello’s is unveiling a first-of-its-kind entrée to the market. Ravioli lovers now can find almond flour varieties in the frozen aisle of Whole Foods Market locations across the country.
Cappello’s continues to focus on simple, real-food ingredients. The food innovators saw their opportunity to re-energize the outdated ravioli space by developing a thoughtfully developed option, coupled with best-in-class, gourmet flavor that everyone can enjoy, no matter their dietary restrictions. Although Cappello’s products cater to those with dietary restrictions, the brand is rethinking food in a bigger way, with a goal of creating the best tasting foods with the cleanest ingredient ledgers possible.
These packages of grain-free pasta come in frozen-fresh, restaurant-quality choices: Five Cheese is a savory blend of ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, fontina and asiago cheeses, while Spinach & Cheese features spinach paired with creamy ricotta cheese. Each ravioli is made using Cappello’s signature almond flour pasta.
Both of the raviolis contain ingredients including cage-free eggs and almond flour. Each of these new offerings are nutrient-dense, packed with 16-17g of protein per serving and healthy fats, making these raviolis as functional as they are flavorful.
Like all Cappello’s pastas, these give consumers the conveniently quick cook times that they’ve come to love from the brand, ready in under eight minutes and a new way to enjoy Cappello’s gluten- and grain-free pasta. This new product has been honored as a finalist in the NEXTY Awards during this year’s Expo West virtual event from May 24-27. The winners will be announced at the beginning of the virtual occasion, with judges already saying this about the almond flour ravioli, “It takes a creative commitment to innovation to produce pasta this good without grain.”
“For 10 years, Cappello’s continues to set the new standard for frozen-fresh foods devoted to taste and nutrition. With the introduction of our raviolis, this is a flavorsome experience unlike any other that brings this Italian classic into 2021 with our nutritionally relevant offering,” said Ben Frohlichstein, co-founder and co-CEO of Cappello’s. “As a brand committed to bringing truly unique and thoughtful innovation to life, we are exhilarated to share our dishes that will be savored across all family tables.”
In honor of the brand’s tradition of feeding people over the last 10 years, Cappello’s is donating $10,000 to Conscious Alliance, the philanthropic organization on a mission to end childhood hunger nationwide.
Cappello’s Almond Flour Ravioli is available for $9.99 in Whole Foods Market stores nationwide and beginning May 11, the raviolis will be available online at cappellos.com/pasta for $11. Also, Cappello’s will be debuting a dairy-free ravioli option later this summer.
