UK plant-based food brand Gosh! has unveiled a new range of vegetable croquettes, responding to demand for at-home premium sharing occasions.

Gosh! said the new range is the ‘first of its kind’ for the brand, made with ‘high-end’ ingredients while retaining Gosh!’s veg-led, clean label focus.

Each pack is paired with a dip designed to complement the flavours of the croquettes, which tap into the growing global-inspired trend, and simplify hosting for consumers.

The Bengali-inspired Beetroot Croquettes with a Mango and Nigella Seeds Chutney create a ‘soft warmth’ boosted by the sweet chutney, while the Italian-inspired Cannellini Bean & Mozzarella Croquettes with a Balsamic and Tomato Dip contain a dairy-free, mozzarella-style cheese.

Caroline Hughes, marketing director at Gosh!, said: “With more people choosing to entertain at home amid ongoing cost-of-living pressures, we saw a clear opportunity to offer something special with our premium, all-natural and plant-based croquettes”.

She added: “They deliver on every front: a chef-inspired fusion of elevated flavours from India and Italy, designed for a standout at-home sharing occasion. They feel indulgent, yet remain veg-powered and thoughtfully made, so people can enjoy a treat without compromise.”

The new croquettes will be available first in Morrisons stores nationwide from 24 May, priced at an RRP of £3.50.
