Chef Wolfgang Puck Launches All-Natural No-Stick Cooking and Baking Sprays

27/06/07 World-renown chef and restaurateur, Wolfgang Puck, announced the launch of his Wolfgang Puck All-Natural No-Stick Cooking and Baking Sprays for fat-free cooking and baking. The products are cholesterol and sodium-free, contain no water, have zero grams trans fat per serving and complement Chef Puck's companies' brand standards and healthful philosophy of Wolfgang's Eating, Loving and Living by creating innovative tastes using all-natural ingredients. The products are scheduled to hit shelves in grocery stores nationwide in July.

"A quality meal starts with the freshest ingredients and to help preserve flavor and protect my cookware, I start many of my favorite recipes with my new Wolfgang Puck All-Natural No-Stick Cooking Spray," said Puck. "The spray prevents sticking and contains less calories and fat than butter or margarine. My mother used to save butter wrappings to coat her pans and this spray is more convenient, with less mess and helps keep you well."

With Wolfgang Puck All-Natural No-Stick Cooking Spray, consumers can cook WELL without using butter or margarine. A one second spray of Wolfgang Puck All-Natural No-Stick Cooking Sprays contains less than one gram of fat and less than 15 calories; while one tablespoon of butter or margarine contains more than 10 grams of fat and more than 100 calories. Most butter and margarine products contain trans fats, while Wolfgang Puck Cooking Sprays contains zero grams trans fat per serving.

Consumers can choose from three varieties of Wolfgang Puck All-Natural No- Stick Cooking Sprays, including:

-- All-Natural Original Canola Oil Cooking Spray: Made from 100% Canola Oil, this all-purpose spray for fat-free cooking can be used for all dishes at breakfast, lunch or dinner.

-- All-Natural Butter Flavor Canola Oil Cooking and Baking Spray: Made from 100% Canola Oil, this multi-purpose spray imparts a delicate pure butter flavor and is perfect for breakfast foods, sautéing and protects muffin tins, waffle irons and baking sheets.  A more healthful alternative to butter or margarine.

-- All-Natural 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil Cooking Spray:  Made from 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil, this cooking spray combines the light, flavorful, pure olive oil flavor to pasta, seafood and vegetable recipes, with all the healthy benefits of cooking with olive oil.

Further meeting Wolfgang's culinary standards, the product prevents food from sticking to cookware since it contains high heat lecithin, which is made from soybeans. Regular cooking oils alone don't contain lecithin and won't stop food from sticking to cookware. Since Wolfgang Puck All-Natural No-Stick Cooking Spray won't stick to pans, baking sheets or muffin tins, it prevents product build up, prolonging the life of cookware.

Wolfgang Puck All-Natural No-Stick Cooking Spray preserves food quality during cooking, keeping ingredients crisp, clean and flavorful; while butter and margarine contain water and milk fat that can scorch, spatter and burn food when cooking, sautéing, grilling and baking. The product provides a more convenient, healthful way to cook and preserve flavor and food quality so you can Eat, Love and Live WELL.
