FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PR Log (Press Release) May 16, 2010 Charlottetown, PE, Canada May 17, 2010 Island Abbey Foods Ltd. today announced the Honibe Honey Drop has been named as best new product for in the Grocery Sweet category at the SIAL Dor Awards in Paris, France. The Honey Drop also won the Country Award as the highest scoring Canadian product. The Honey Drop is the worlds first 100% pure dried honey cube for sweetening tea and coffee.
SIAL (Salon International de l'Alimentation) is the worlds largest food tradeshow. The SIAL Dor Awards recognizes nine of the worlds most innovative and successful new-product launches that came to market after November of 2008. The SIAL Dor Awards are judged by a panel that is comprised of 30 judges from 30 different countries. The nine finalists were chosen from a product field of over 250 of the worlds best new products.
The Honey Drop solves a common problem: liquid honey can be messy. The Honey Drop is an individual serving (one teaspoon / 5 g.) of 100% pure dried honey without any additives. It is ideal for sweetening tea or coffee. Simply drop into a hot beverage and stir. You have all of the natural honey flavour without the usual honey mess.
To win the SIAL Country Award for Canada with our Honibe - Honey Drop as the highest scoring product for the country was beyond our expectations, stated John Rowe, President of Island Abbey Foods Ltd. To then be named best product in the Grocery Sweet category is a phenomenal accomplishment! We are ecstatic to be representing Canada at SIAL 2010 this fall as one of only nine finalists competing for the best new food product in the world.
The Honey Drop comes in two flavours: pure honey and pure honey with lemon. The Honey Drop comes in boxes of 20 pieces. The Honey Drop is only 20 calories, has a shelf life of three years, and does not contain any artificial colouring, flavouring, or preservatives. The Honey Drop is a product of Prince Edward Island, Canada.
