The Gym Kitchen is expanding its high-protein food-to-go range in the UK with three new products, debuting this month in Tesco stores.

Three brand-new food-to-go offerings are launching as part of the expansion – BBQ Chicken Pasta, Chicken Katsu Wrap and Chicken Tikka Bites. The lunch and snack options aim to provide a nutritious, high-protein offering to fuel consumers’ active lifestyles.

This latest launch follows the brand’s entry into the instant noodles category last month, debuting its high-protein noodle pots at Asda. As part of the brand’s broader expansion, the pots have now launched into Tesco following their debut in June.

Additionally, its Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken & Chorizo Paella and Meat Feast Pasta products are launching as part of its existing frozen meal range in Sainsbury’s.

Segun Akinwoleola, founder of The Gym Kitchen, said: “Expanding The Gym Kitchen proposition across multiple categories is central to our mission to make healthy, wholesome high protein options accessible to everyone and we want to thank all our retail partners for their support in making this happen”.

Ella’s Kitchen launches new children's snack range

Ella’s Kitchen is expanding beyond the baby food aisle with the launch of Ella’s Kitchen Kids, a new product line aimed at children aged 18 months and older.

The launch marks a significant strategic move for the brand as it looks to extend its presence beyond the weaning category and capture growing demand for healthier snack options for toddlers and young children.

Positioned as a “better-for-you” alternative to traditional children’s snacks, the new range combines bold flavours, playful branding and convenient formats with the nutritional standards parents associate with the Ella’s Kitchen brand.

The company said the range was developed in response to changing family eating habits and the lack of minimally processed snack options for older toddlers outside the baby aisle.

Initial products include Ella’s Kitchen Kids Crunchy Stix in Cheese + Onion, Tomato + Basil and Pesto varieties, alongside Ella’s Kitchen Kids Wild Crackers available in Tomato + Oregano, Pea + Basil and Carrot + Rosemary flavours.

Designed for lunchboxes, picnics and snacking occasions, the products are formulated with reduced salt levels and classified as non-HFSS options. According to the company, the Crunchy Stix contain less than 0.04g of salt per pack, while the Crackers contain less than 0.05g per serving.

Emma Wood, Senior Brand Manager at Ella’s Kitchen, said: “Ella’s Kitchen Kids is about recognising that the journey doesn’t stop at baby food. As little ones grow, their tastes, independence and routines all change – but parents still want options they can feel good about.”

The launch also signals Ella’s Kitchen’s wider ambitions within the children’s snacking market, with additional products and categories expected later this year.

Wood added that the company aims to help “raise the standards of the kids’ food category” by balancing taste, convenience and nutrition.
