The new range, developed with frozen food specialist McEvoy Foods, has been developed to comply with The Walt Disney Company’s nutritional guidelines introduced to promote healthier foods to children, the company said.


The first phase of the range consists of four products shaped in the image of Mickey Mouse’s head and ears; Mickey Chicken Nuggets, Mickey Potato Shapes and two varieties of Mickey-shaped pizzas – Cheese and Tomato and Hawaiian style with Ham and Pineapple. 


The range launched nationally in Morrisons this week and will move into wider retail from November.


“These frozen food products are important additions to our growing range of healthier food options which we hope will make it easier for parents to get their kids to consume a more balanced diet,” said Dan Dossa, director, Disney Consumer Products, food, health & beauty UK.
