Make it a red hot Valentine’s Day!

Red carrots are red hot at Indy Fruit this Valentine’s Day!

You’ll see red carrots all over the market soon as their popularity continues to soar. Falling in love with this sweet variety is easy; it’s enjoyable raw and delicious cooked.

The bonus to these beauties is that they are more tender, sweeter and cook faster than standard orange carrots. I love the face that they get their red hue from lycopene, a nutrient that fights cancer cells and heart disease AND they are full of vitamin A, which is goo for your eyes, bones, teeth and skin – now that’s a pretty great Valentine’s Day gift!

Showcase red carrots around Valentine’s Day to entice shoppers to buy red and cook at home. Decorate your display with a love or heart theme for the holiday. Download the red carrot info sheet and place it with your display.

Set out cross-promotional items such as carrot cake ingredients and stew vegetables. This will help your shoppers easily find ways to incorporate red carrots into their Valentine’s Day meal. Display Indy Fruit essentials such as dipping chocolate, strawberries and fresh roses.

Go on and take the lead and help your shoppers create a romantic Valentine’s Day at home with scrumptious dishes that they’ll want to cook over and over again. Download these recipes (click or visit our recipes page).
