First ready-made soft-boiled eggs launch in the UK

By James Russell: First ready-made soft-boiled eggs launch in the UK

September 21, 2017

Brusco, a leading bulk ingredients supplier, has just launched the UK’s first ready-made soft-boiled eggs. Designed especially for the mass food service market where timing is everything, this product is an ingenious way of serving customers that classic breakfast favourite – dippy egg and soldiers – on a large scale.

The eggs are supplied to industry in a pre-cooked form, with their shells ready lasered for ease of opening, and in environmentally-friendly packaging. Preparation is fast and efficient as a whole batch of them can be placed in the oven for a set time according to instructions, and customers are guaranteed a ready to dip, perfectly cooked soft-boiled egg. Pallets can hold up to 80 cases which includes the product being packed in cases of 30 – five rows of six egg cups.

Multiple advantages are available to UK food service companies, as not only do Brusco’s eggs avoid the costs of paying a chef to precisely batch boil high volumes of eggs in the traditional way, but they also come in their very own egg cup. The environmentally-friendly cup is a two-section hinged cellulose container which, once opened after reheating, has the egg nestling in one section with room for toast soldiers in the other.

Brusco’s innovative eggs make it easy for hotels, airlines, cruise ships, ferry companies and other large-scale food service outlets to serve high quantities of soft-boiled eggs conveniently from either dry ovens or thermo contact ovens. For example, a batch of 100 eggs (lids open) could be placed in a pulsed air, dry oven at 140 ⁰C for 15 minutes, or alternatively in a thermo contact oven (lids closed) for 35 minutes, to produce soft eggs ready to eat.

Available as either barn laid or free range, the eggs are sourced from specially selected farms in France. They are pasteurised to remove harmful bacteria, and offer excellent consistency with a smooth, creamy yolk. As the eggs are heated up and served in their biodegradable packaging, handling of the product is minimised and the packaging can be instantly recycled – making it a very healthy option for person and planet.

Brusco already supplies the UK food service market, including pub and café chains, with a range of ready-made soft poached eggs and chilled or frozen scrambled eggs. The company is confident that this new and unique offering will be a big hit amongst food service companies across the country.

Brusco’s managing director, Andrew Ashby, commented: “We are thrilled to bring this new product to the UK food service market. It will offer them the option of serving a popular dish quickly and consistently without wasting time on fiddly preparation. Our eggs are of the highest quality and provide guaranteed results every time – putting a family favourite back on the menu with a process that is both time efficient and cost effective.”

The bulk food ingredients specialist has been supplying household name food service and food manufacturing companies for over twenty years with its market-leading range of products from alcohol, vinegars, and Asian ingredients to its premium quality egg products. It supplies companies large and small across the UK with a diverse selection of ambient, chilled and frozen ingredients unrivalled by other suppliers.
