B&G Foods, the US owner of food brands such as Green Giant, has announced it is acquiring baking aids business Clabber Girl from Indiana-based wholesale supplier Hulman & Co for an undisclosed sum.
The Clabber Girl product range includes baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and cornflour marketed under brands such as Clabber Girl, Rumford, Davis, Hearth Club and Royal.
