Think Mediterranean Strengthens U.S. Specialty Food Presence With Spanish Fig Cakes and Premium Almonds

MADRID, Spain — Think Mediterranean, a Spanish producer of handcrafted dried fruit and nut specialties, is expanding its presence in the U.S. specialty food market with a portfolio built around traditional Spanish fig cakes, premium almonds and Mediterranean-inspired pairings.

The company produces its foods in Spain and currently reaches more than 20 countries. Its portfolio is designed for specialty food retailers, gourmet shops, cheese counters, distributors and foodservice operators looking for distinctive Mediterranean products with a strong connection to origin and traditional ingredients.

At the center of the range are Think Mediterranean's Spanish Fig Cakes, traditionally known in Spain as pan de higo. The collection begins with the classic combination of Pajarero figs from Extremadura and Valencian almonds and extends into contemporary flavor profiles featuring orange, dark chocolate and jalapeño.

The company's Fig & Orange Cake combines Spanish figs with almonds, orange zest, apricots and dates, while the Fig & Orange Cake with Jalapeños adds a gently spicy element designed to complement aged cheeses. The latter received a 1-star Great Taste Award in 2023.

Think Mediterranean also offers Spanish Marcona and Valencia almonds for specialty retail and foodservice. The almond range includes traditional fried and salted varieties as well as Valencia almonds seasoned with fine herbs, truffle and paprika. The products are positioned for snacking, cheese boards, charcuterie and other gourmet applications.

Beyond fig cakes and almonds, the company's broader portfolio includes dried fruit rolls, Spanish dried figs, fruit condiments and chocolate-covered fig truffles filled with ganaches inspired by products such as Manchego cheese, goat cheese, blue cheese, red wine and brandy.

Think Mediterranean works with agricultural cooperatives and farmers and emphasizes sourcing ingredients from regions associated with their production, including Pajarero figs from Extremadura and almonds and oranges from Valencia.

The company has continued developing its international specialty food business through major industry events, most recently exhibiting at Alimentaria Barcelona in March 2026 and at ANUGA in Cologne in 2025.

For U.S. specialty food buyers, the Think Mediterranean portfolio offers formats suited to both retail and professional foodservice, with products designed for cheese pairing, gourmet entertaining and premium snacking.
