The Angel Bay burger not only captures taste buds but also the ethos of mindful consumers, increasingly favouring sustainable and ethical food choices. The burger patties, also recognised by judges for their taste and versatility, outshone numerous contenders to win this years award.

The recognition for Angel Bay's Veggie Burger highlight a consumer market that's leaning towards inclusivity and diversity in dietary options. As a testament to its widespread appeal, this product has been crafted to suit a variety of dietary needs, being egg-free, dairy-free, and gluten-free, while also carrying the HALAL New Zealand certification.

Judges noted the Veggie Burger's convenience and appeal for family dinners, praising its suitability for both plant-based eaters and those looking to reduce their meat consumption. Angel Bay's triumph underscores a significant shift in consumer habits and market trends, where plant-based alternatives are no longer niche but mainstream contenders especially when sold side by side of beef and lamb options.
