Rescue Pops - Plums Up Fruit Sorbet
Montague is proud to be partnering with Peters Ice Cream to create Rescue Pops - Plums Up Fruit Sorbet.
The Story
Montague has partnered with Peters Ice Cream, this country’s most loved ice cream brand, to create Rescue Pops – Plums Up – a delicious frozen fruit sorbet stick made from rescued and repurposed premium Montague plums that were destined for landfill, but are just too good to waste.
Why Rescue Pops
Rescue Pops – Plums Up sorbet sticks are a delicious snack the whole family can feel good about, with all the antioxidant goodness and inherent sweetness of plums. Naturally gluten-free, plant-based Rescue Pops have no artificial colours or flavours and contain only 56 calories per serve.
Let's Fight Food Waste
Food waste in Australia is a big deal. And it’s not great.
Did you know that 7.6 million tonnes of perfectly edible food ends up in landfill in Australia each year? That’s around 312kg of waste per person!
To help tackle our country’s food waste problem, Peters and Montague have created Rescue Pops – Plums Up, a delicious sorbet stick made from rescued Montague plums that would have otherwise gone to landfill. So, we hope you’ll help us by getting onboard and grabbing a box of Rescue Pops to enjoy with your family.
Where to buy
Montague and Peters Ice Cream invite all Australians to reframe their thinking and perceptions of food that might appear a little different but is just as nutritious and delicious.
Let’s celebrate the beautiful and blemished, the perfectly imperfect and rescue these orchard rejects by turning them into delicious frozen fruit sorbet treats. We can all make a difference, even if it’s just by salvaging one unique fruit at a time.
As well as saving imperfect Aussie plums from landfill, Peters will assist in closing the loop on food waste with annual sales from Rescue Pops funding 200,000 meals for Australians in need through Foodbank.
You can find Rescue Pops at your local Woolworths store and Bill’s Orchard Gate at The Orchard at Montague.
