Two new varieties are coming to Effie’s Homemade’s portfolio. The company announced the addition of Gruyere with Black Pepper Biscuits and Hazelnut Biscuits will soon be available.
“The inspiration to experiment with incorporating cheeses came after working with a local cheese distributor,” said Co-Owner Joan MacIsaac. “We absolutely loved the way Gruyere’s nuttiness came forward without being overly salty, which allowed the butter and spicy black pepper to play on the taste buds.”
The Gruyere with Black Pepper Biscuits are a satisfying snack that can be enjoyed on their own or even with a cold beer! By contrast, the Hazelnut Biscuits are a little bit sweet and a little bit salty.
“Working with hazelnuts took me back to my culinary school days and the first time I really experienced that lovely intense flavor. Pairing them with Effie’s biscuit base, which features
toasted oats and real butter, was a natural fit. The addition of hazelnuts makes a wonderfully balanced biscuit that we’ve been savoring with goat cheese in the office,” she noted.
With wholesome ingredients and varieties to suit any taste and every mood, Effie’s Homemade biscuits hit the sweet and savory spot for today’s consumers.
