Maggi, Nestlé's international culinary brand, is relaunching its iconic Fusian and 3 Minute Noodles block range and So Juicy and So Tender dry recipe mixes in the UK and Ireland, with nutritionally improved recipes and updated packaging designs.
Following years of research and development, Maggi’s noodle range and recipe mixes have been reformulated using more of the great tasting familiar ingredients that people would find in their kitchen cupboard.
Maggi Fusian and the Maggi 3 Minute noodle block range are now packed with even more carefully selected authentic ingredients and contain 25% less salt compared to the market average.
The products have been developed with nutritional benefits in mind, yet without compromising on the delicious flavours consumers have come to know and love:
- Maggi So Juicy: no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives (dish pictured)
- Maggi So Tender: no hydrogenated vegetable oil, no artificial colours
- Maggi Fusian noodle blocks: 25% less salt*, no artificial colours or preservatives
- Maggi 3 Minute Noodles: 25% less salt*, 30% less fat*, no artificial colours or preservatives
As a result of the reformulation 760 kg of salt and 5 tonnes of saturated fat have been removed from the products.
As part of the re-launch, Maggi is also revealing a new visual identity focused on flavour with a more striking and contemporary packaging across the dry recipe mixes and noodles portfolio.
The packaging changes follow research into consumer behaviours and extensive testing of Maggi’s new visual identity proving that the changes will help consumers find their favourite flavours more easily and quickly on shelves.
The new packs are now being rolled out with all products due on shelf by the end of this month.
Daniel Wheeler, Maggi Marketing Manager at Nestlé UK and Ireland, said, “At Maggi, we strongly believe that homemade cooking can make a positive impact on people’s lives and everyone should be able to enjoy it every day.
