Made with mainly raw products, the guilt-free we care range is aimed at meeting the demands of a busy contemporary lifestyle. The blends and mixes are tailor-made to meet requirements ranging from healthy heart, immune support and high energy demands, to providing brain food, and a Banting friendly blend for those following a low carb, high fat lifestyle.
Liesl Carstens, National Marketing Manager, says the Montagu Dried Fruit and Nuts we care range builds on the company’s product promise of ‘sharing the Sunshine’ and caring about customers and their families. “Our we care range is made of food from nature and the majority of the mixes can be enjoyed as is or added to muffin mixes, cereal, yoghurt and salads.
