Replace Many Costly Ingredients with Just One Product

Many bakeries are experiencing the struggle of ingredient shortages, and rising costs of raw materials. Although people don’t generally like change, bakers that would normally make their toppings/fillings from raw materials are being forced to find alternatives. The benefit of using ready-to-whip or ready-to-use products is that you’re able to simplify your shopping list and save money. Hanan Products’ whipped toppings, icings and fillings are made with high quality ingredients and are sold frozen to maximize shelf life and freshness.

Here’s how people just like you were able to cut down on the ingredients they purchased/used and replace them with one Hanan Product.

Chocolate mousse – a bakery in Queens, NY makes a decadent chocolate cake with a chocolate mousse filling. At first, their process to make the mousse was very time consuming, and expensive! They would melt down chocolate, then add eggs, sugar, flavoring…the list goes on. They were already purchasing toppings from Hanan, but didn’t realize there are options for fillings as well. The bakery owner reached out to us looking for ways to help his staff save time and we recommended Whip Deelite ready-to-whip Chocolate – our certified vegan topping with a rich chocolate flavor. We sent a sample of the product and they reported great results. We were able to deliver pallets of Whip Deelite chocolate for use later that week. They’re now saving time on purchasing all the separate ingredients and making the mousse from scratch, and paying a fraction of the cost, making the profit on their delicious chocolate cakes higher. 

Tres leches – A baker on Long Island is known by her customers for the tasty tres leches cake she makes. Grab-and-go slices of her tres leches cake are even available for purchase at other stores. She thankfully started to get very busy this past year but wasn’t sure she could keep up with buying tres leches soaking ingredients on top of the necessary cake ingredients. A friend told her about Hanan’s Tres ‘Licious and she gave us a call for more information. She started with just a few cases for small cake orders then realized how many shopping trips for condensed milk, evaporated milk, heavy cream, sugar, etc., she was saving-not to mention the time spent on making the perfect soaking mixture. She was initially concerned that customers would taste the difference from her “homemade” mixture to the “store-bought” one, but there were no complaints from customers on the change - her tres leches cake was just as delicious.

Cookies & cream topping – A cake decorator in San Antonio, TX was excited to learn that Hanan Products makes ready-to-use icing. She was especially delighted to taste our pre-whipped Tasty Whipped Cookies and Cream. She recalled what a big seller the cookies and cream flavor is for her bakery, but how painstaking it is to buy ingredients to make their own icing from scratch, then purchase cookies and crush them up and finally, to properly fold them in. Her bakery now purchases pails of our pre-whipped icing, including those with colors, to save them the headache!

Whipped cream topping - A small supermarket in Massachusetts panicked when, due to supply chain issues, they couldn’t get their hands on a stabilizer for heavy cream. As any baker knows, stabilizer is necessary when making whipped cream topping, so that it doesn’t fall down the sides of the cake. The supermarket’s distributor reached out to Hanan for possible solutions, and we delivered with HPT – our gourmet dairy whipped topping. It is a ready-to-whip product with great stability so there’s no need to add any additional ingredients. They loved that the high performance topping was just one product to whip, and that it came in gallon containers. They hadn’t mentioned it at the time, but another pain point for them was that they were forced to use multiple quarts of heavy cream for one batch of topping. Since using our HPT they claim they will never go back to the way they used to make whipped topping.

Therefore, when you’re short on time, can’t find ingredients, or think “there has to be a better way”, contact Hanan to see how we can help.
