“Fancypants has been a baking industry pioneer for 15 years,” says Steven Evancho, Director of Marketing. “We were among the first to operate a dedicated nut free facility, and the first to use plant based food colors. And today we’re excited to launch an entire product line made with upcycled ingredients,” Evancho continues.
Okara Chocolate Chip Cookies are launching exclusively with Imperfect Foods, the leading online grocer dedicated to eliminating food waste and building a better food system for everyone. The company sources surplus food and imperfect produce directly from farmers, growers and food purveyors and delivers these goods directly to customers’ doors through a customizable subscription service that’s less than grocery store prices.
“The partnership between Fancypants and Imperfect Foods is a terrific example of companies working together to find great solutions. Both companies share the common goals of reducing waste and creating positive impact in the food chain,” says Fancypants President and founder Maura Duggan. “Imperfect Foods works tirelessly to solve for the many ways food goes to waste in our food system, and Fancypants offers a unique way to transform typically wasted ingredients into delicious snacks. The partnership is ideal.”
Okara Chocolate Chip Cookies are available for customers to add in weekly boxes as part of Imperfect Foods’ fully customizable service. Cookies are packaged in clamshell containers (14 ounces); containers are made of 100% recycled plastic. The cookies are baked using certified non-GMO ingredients, peanut and tree nut free, and certified kosher. Additional flavors of the Fancypants upcycled product line will launch in November, 2020.
