Garnishing Pearls

Garnishing Pearls

What are Garnishing Pearls?

Garnishing pearls are a simple, cost-effective way to add luxury to the presentation of food and drinks.

Our range of flavoursome garnishing pearls doesn’t only produce an exciting burst of flavour, they also add aesthetics to a wide range of dishes. Balsamic vinegar is made from grapes that are cooked, fermented and then aged. The distinctive taste of quality balsamic vinegar complements other foods to enhance the overall meal. Balsamic vinegar is commonly available in bottles, but Nicholson Fine Foods manufactures exquisite balsamic pearls with a natural truffle aroma.

The Advantage of Black Balsamic Pearls

The use of liquid balsamic vinegar is familiar to all chefs and cooking enthusiasts as an essential ingredient in salads, pasta and fish dishes. Nicholson Fine foods are revolutionising the established use of balsamic vinegar by presenting it as food pearls, which you can add directly to traditional dishes or serve as a spoonable condiment.

• Flavoured pearls add level to the enjoyment of food. Instead of the (unpleasant) puddle of liquid at the bottom of the bowl, which also results in a progressive increase in taste as the salad is consumed, the flavour pearls distribute the dressing evenly through the food.
• The flavoured pearls enhance the overall presentation of food, and the pearls look good with their glossy appearance. It is also possible to add a few pearls of a different flavour to a mix of sticky balsamic pearls in a salad, perhaps a few red chilli garnishing pearls for a dash of intense colour and controlled taste.

Why Choose Pearls By Nicholson Fine Foods?

Food pearls are increasingly familiar, even in supermarkets, but purchasing flavour pearls in Australia from Nicholson Fine Foods offers your guests and patrons the best advantages. The success of any restaurant hinges on a few factors, but primarily on the quality of the food, which is why it is important to choose food suppliers that deliver consistent products. If you’re wondering where to buy balsamic pearls, Nicholson Fine Foods is your supplier because:

• Ingredients. We manufacture the flavoured food pearls we sell in-house, meaning we have complete control over every aspect of the process, including the ingredients. Our pearls are gluten-free and suitable for vegans. All the natural ingredients are sourced from known farms that prioritise production quality.
• Consistency. All the balsamic, capsicum and vanilla pearls are the same size and have the same texture; the only difference is the flavour and colour. However, within a flavour, we go to great lengths to ensure consistency of taste and colour between batches.
• Serving size. The standard package for food pearls is 125g, which equates to between 65 and 250 servings (depending on the food). This makes our flavoured food pearls an economical replacement for the usual liquid dressings.
• Storage. The food pearls have a shelf life of 12 months when correctly refrigerated. Pearls ordered for delivery are shipped in secure packages to maintain freshness and prevent unwanted tampering.
• Responsible production. All our manufacturing facilities operate on 100% renewable electricity, and we encourage our suppliers to lower their carbon footprint through recycling and environmentally responsible production techniques.
