The new recipe means one portion – two slices – of Fruit Loaf with Orange counts towards consumers’ five-a-day recommended intake of fruit and vegetables.


Available from mid-January, Warburtons Fruit Loaf with Orange will be relaunched with new packaging to communicate the fruitier recipe. 


A “low fat” and “no added sugar” message will also be highlighted, the company said.


“Fruit loaves offer customers a healthier tea-time treat and show the strongest growth year-on-year in the tea break sector with volume sales up 17.3%,” Sarah Miskell, category director at Warburtons, said.
