Spicy pineapple cake and custard
Why we chose this dish
Our Pupil’s Choice
"I can’t wait for it to be on the menu again, loved it last time!"Bailey, Llantarnam Primary
Our Dietitian’s Choice
"Always determined to use real fruit to naturally sweeten desserts where possible, here pineapple pieces are used in this sponge, contributing to our 5 a day fruit and vegetable targets. Our custard, made with fresh milk is a great contributor to pupil’s calcium requirements (for strong bones and teeth) and zinc (for healthy growth and healthy immune function).
Worried about calories, fat or sugar? Our recipes and menus are carefully considered to ensure pupils are not being served excess calories, fat or sugar.
I personally undertake nutritional analysis of our primary menus prior to publishing to ensure that they meet Welsh Government Standards for school lunches. This means that they contain on average around a third of pupils’ daily nutrient requirements. This includes meeting standards for maximum calories, fat, saturated fat and sugar."
Sustainable School Meals
More Welsh Produce on Our Menus - The semi skimmed milk used in our custard is of course Welsh produced, so supporting our local economy and jobs whilst reducing food miles.
