Alexia Foods Introduces a Sweet Addition to its Product Line Up - All-Natural Sweet Potato Puffs

EAGLE, Idaho, June 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- This year, the sweet potato is migrating away from its place at the Thanksgiving table and making its way to everyday dinner tables thanks to companies like Alexia Foods. Known for its line of all-natural, gourmet-inspired frozen side dishes, breads and appetizers, Alexia is adding new, bite-sized Sweet Potato Puffs to its list of products. Made from farm-fresh sweet potatoes and the finest all-natural ingredients, these tasty sweet potato puffs are light and flavorful on the inside and crispy on the outside. Prepared from the freezer in just 20 minutes, they are perfect as a summertime snack or as a side dish to any entree.

"The emergence of the sweet potato beyond your typical holiday fare is one of the top food trends today, and this is an entirely new way for consumers to enjoy them," said Mike Smith, vice president and general manager, Alexia Foods. "Alexia Sweet Potato Puffs are a true reinvention with a sweet and unexpected twist."

Celebrity chef and Alexia spokesperson, Tyler Florence, says the new Sweet Potato Puffs are a great staple to keep in the freezer.

"Alexia sweet potato fries are a favorite of my family and their new Sweet Potato Puffs have been a major hit in our household," said Florence. "I love serving them alongside my Grilled Shrimp with Homemade Barbecue Sauce, but these bite-sized puffs are perfect to enjoy by themselves or great paired alongside any entree."

Available nationwide for a suggested retail price of $3.49, the new Alexia Sweet Potato Puffs join the popular line of Alexia gourmet-inspired sweet potato fry varieties, including: Crinkle Cut Sweet Potato Fries with Sea Salt & Pepper, Waffle Cut Sweet Potato Fries with Seasoned Salt, Spicy Sweet Potato Julienne Fries with Chipotle and Sweet Potato Julienne Fries.

In  addition to all-natural premium fries, Alexia also offers a full line of premium gourmet frozen potatoes, appetizers, breads and side dishes that are perfect for any meal and go from freezer to table in less than 30 minutes.
