apetito helps residents celebrate Christmas with festive feast

With apetito’s new Christmas range, residents will be able to enjoy a truly festive feast this year with dishes such as Wiltshire Ham served with an Orange & Cranberry Sauce, and a new Cauliflower, Broccoli & Stilton Crumble.

Developed by its team of in-house chefs and dietitians, apetito’s 2023 Christmas menu range features much-loved classics and delicious new dishes. This year, residents will be able to enjoy slices of Honey Roasted Turkey in a rich poultry gravy, while apetito’s Pigs in Blankets are now gluten free, energy dense, and available as side dish.

apetito’s Festive Fruit Crumble, Mincemeat Bar, Brie & Cranberry Turnover, and Curried Parsnip Soup are back on the menu due to popular demand, while its new and improved Premium Christmas Pudding is packed full of flavour, with more fruit than ever.

For those with a sweeter tooth, apetito’s Pastry Development Chef Matt has developed the Mincemeat Crumble Sponge – a brand-new dish for 2023 and a twist on a traditional classic, with a layer of mincemeat topped with a fluffy vanilla sponge and a light sprinkle of crunchy crumble topping.

It has never been easier for residents living with dysphagia to be part of the festivities. apetito’s Level 5 and 6 Roast Turkey with Redcurrant and Orange Gravy are brand new Christmas dishes and join its Level 4 Turkey with Stuffing, so residents with swallowing difficulties are all able to enjoy the taste of Christmas.

Richard Woodward, general manager of apetito’s care home division, said: “Christmas is such a special time of year, and we want to bring that joy and festivity into residents’ lives with this range.

“Our team of chefs and dietitians has worked really hard to make sure all of the dishes are packed full of the Christmas flavours we all know and love. From firm favourites like our Curried Parsnip Soup, to new dishes like our Level 5 and 6 Roast Turkey with Redcurrant and Orange Gravy, there really is something for every resident to enjoy on the menu this Christmas.”
