Cavan's Banana Bread Available Soon

The banana bread will be available to buy from April 21st – come into store and purchase or via click and collect. 

If you want to make it yourself here is the recipe:-

Classic Banana Loaf Cake

Makes 1 large loaf

170g Butter

240g Caster sugar

3 Eggs (medium)

4 Bananas, very ripe, mashed

370g Self raising flour

1 Tsp Baking powder

50ml Milk

Method

1. Pre-heated oven at 160C fan/180C conventional/Gas 4

2. Cream together the butter and caster sugar until fluffy and pale in colour.

3. Beat in the eggs, one at a time.

4. Add the mashed bananas, self raising flour, baking powder and milk and mix until combined.

5. Spoon cake batter into a greased and lined 1Kg loaf tin.

6. Bake for 1 hour 15 minutes. Insert a skewer into the centre of the loaf - if it comes out clean, the cake is cooked. If not, return to the oven for a few more minutes.

7. Remove from the oven and leave for 10 minutes, before turning out onto a cooling rack.

Then eat it. But be warned! Don't expect it to last too long, as everyone will demand more slices!

Soreen bring health and affordability to the cake aisle

Soreen, the nation’s favourite malt loaf brand, has reformulated their banana loaf recipe to delight consumers taste buds with their exceptionally tasty and nutritional goodness.

The new Banana Loaf reformulation packs a powerful punch in flavour with an authentic banana bread taste, alongside heightened nutritional values, at a far more affordable price than other snacking and breakfast options.

At a time when households all over the UK are struggling to uphold a healthy lifestyle but are equally feeling the pressures of daily expenses and inflated costs of living, balancing health and affordability is admittedly something of a tough proposition. 

However, Soreen’s range provides healthier snacking alternatives whilst achieving good value for money. For example, Soreen Banana Loaf is 147 calories per portion at a cost of 30p per serving, far less than other category products or coffee shop cakes.

As the biggest HFSS compliant brand in cakes, Soreen has grown by 11% showcasing that customers want to make healthier choices. Soreen continues to be a popular household staple given its nutritional yet tasty appeal and versatility.

Liz Jacobs, who is the Marketing Director at Soreen said: “The beauty of Soreen is, it's an affordable, tasty and nutritional daily snack.

“At Soreen, we didn’t perceive HFSS to be a restriction, we saw it as an opportunity to refresh some products by adding more nutritional goodness in to optimise our health credentials and propel the brand as category leaders for health.

“Our HFSS compliant products have the chance to increase in-store visibility by moving to more premium store positions, thus encouraging shoppers to choose healthier snacking options and aligning to government guidelines to reduce obesity in the UK.”

The grocery sector has recently been under pressure given the challenges of increasing ingredient costs, which have inflated the price of numerous products. For this reason, some retailers increased their private label ranges given consumers disposable income has fallen. 

The private label options are there to provide cheaper alternatives to brands as shoppers switch products to achieve good value for money. Soreen provides affordable health for homes throughout the UK.

Liz went to say: “We are ‘Champions of feel-good nutrition,’ hence nutrition is a huge priority to us as a brand. We’re also committed to communicating with integrity and always showing our colour coded nutritional GDAs on the front of our packs.

"Soreen’s latest campaign ‘Try Me Topped’ presents some fabulous, and rather unusual combinations to get the senses going, encouraging people to experiment, and inviting them to share their faves, so that the nation’s most loved Malt Loaf topping can be determined!"
