British powdered egg, certified under the British Lion Code, is now available for the first time, after Ready Egg Products opened a new egg drying plant.
The plant manufactures egg powder using British Lion eggs that are spray-dried to form a powder.
Mark Williams, British Egg Industry Council Chairman, said it would enable food manufacturers using egg powder to choose British Lion for the first time.
“Now, for the first time, all major types of egg products, produced to Lion standards, are available, meaning companies can specify British Lion eggs across their full product range, providing reassurance on food safety, and meeting consumer demand for the British Lion, the UK’s most recognised and respected food quality mark.”
