The month of March was packed with sweet and savory product launches that made a splash across the grocery store. As the weather warmed up and daylight hours extended, consumers began seeking out the season’s newest offerings that would carry them through spring, summer, and beyond. Dive into my top five picks below.
Saputo Spicy Mozzarella Cheese Blend
Debuted for the first time at the 2025 International Pizza Expo, this flavorful blend offers a unique eating experience for consumers. Whether it is spread on a pizza or topping your favorite tacos, Saputo’s Spicy Mozzarella Cheese Blend is sure to elevate the plate. As they say, variety is the spice of life, and this product is proof.
Giorgio Hot N’ Spicy Stuffed Baby Bella Mushrooms
Another Pizza Expo showstopper, Giorgio’s newly launched lineup is rounded out by the tantalizing Fiery Sriracha flavored Stuffed Baby Bella Mushrooms. As a big fan of stuffed mushrooms, this new lineup immediately caught my eye. Merchandise alongside other specialty treasures, and consumers will be hooked.
Olli Salumeria Preservative-Free Salami
Completely free from both artificial and natural nitrates and nitrites, the newest lineup from Olli Salumeria puts health front and center. Retailers and foodservice operators should highlight the preservative-free nature of this salami to keep consumers coming back again and again. Look to some of my other March picks for pairing inspo.
Califia Farms® Birthday Cake Almond Creamer
I was a young child when the birthday cake flavor craze took over, so it immediately invokes nostalgic memories for me. Needless to say, anything birthday cake flavored has my vote! Such was the case with Califia Farms® new Birthday Cake Almond Creamer. Once look at that festive packaging, and shoppers will be stopped in their tracks.
Blue Diamond Hot Honey Almonds
We began these picks on a spicy note, so let's end there as well, shall we? This fiery collaboration with Mike’s Hot Honey would be an excellent addition to many consumers’ charcuterie boards. I suspect all it would take is one in-store sampling event for shoppers to make Hot Honey Almonds a staple in their shopping cart.
April picks will be coming across our desks soon enough, so keep a tab open for Deli Market News.
