Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise 20 ml Sachets: the World's Favourite Mayo, Portioned
Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise in 20 ml single-serve sachets, supplied in a case of 120 portions, is the professional answer to portion control, hygiene and food cost. A creamy, full-bodied mayonnaise made with 78% soybean oil and free-range whole egg, gluten-free and vegetarian, shelf-stable at room temperature until opened. Each sachet delivers an exact 20 ml portion (131 kcal), eliminates waste and keeps every service consistent, from the breakfast counter to the late-night takeaway.
What Is Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise
Mayonnaise is a cold emulsion of oil, egg and an acid (vinegar and lemon juice), stabilised so that the fat stays suspended in tiny droplets. Hellmann's Real follows the classic recipe with no compromise: a high oil content of 78%, real whole egg and egg yolk, wine and alcohol vinegar, a touch of sugar and concentrated lemon juice. The result is a dense, glossy emulsion with a clean, balanced flavour that does not turn watery or split, even under the demands of a busy kitchen.
The Brand: born in New York in 1913
Hellmann's was created in New York in 1913 by Richard Hellmann, a German delicatessen owner whose mayonnaise became so popular that he began selling it in jars. The blue-ribbon label is now one of the most recognised condiment brands in the world and is part of the Unilever group. Today Hellmann's Real for the European foodservice market is produced within the Unilever production network and distributed in Switzerland through certified channels, reaching professional kitchens with consistent, audited quality.
Flavour and Texture
Hellmann's Real has a rich, rounded taste with the clean acidity of vinegar and lemon and a subtle sweetness that never dominates. The texture is firm enough to hold its shape on a plate or in a sandwich, yet smooth enough to spread cleanly and to whisk into other sauces. Crucially for service, it does not separate or weep on the plate, which keeps presentation impeccable for several minutes after plating.
Professional Uses in the Kitchen
- Sandwiches, burgers and club sandwiches: hand one sealed sachet per cover for a perfectly portioned, hygienic spread with zero cross-contamination.
- Takeaway and delivery: drop a sachet into every box so fries, nuggets, wraps and poke bowls travel with the dip on the side and arrive intact.
- Base for derivative sauces: whisk with ketchup for a cocktail or burger sauce, with mustard and gherkins for tartare, or with garlic and lemon for a quick aioli-style dip.
- Cold dishes and salads: bind potato salad, coleslaw, egg salad, tuna salad and Russian salad; classic for vitello tonnato and seafood salads.
- Breakfast and brunch buffets: self-service sachets keep a buffet clean, compliant and waste-free.
Pairings
Hellmann's Real is the natural partner of fried foods and grilled meats: pair it with French fries, breaded chicken, fish and chips, grilled burgers and hot dogs. It works alongside ketchup, mustard and barbecue sauce on a condiment station, and is the base for the cocktail, tartare and remoulade sauces that accompany seafood and cold cuts. For Mediterranean menus, combine it with extra virgin olive oil, lemon and capers.
Format, Storage and Shelf Life
The case contains 120 individual 20 ml sachets for a total of 2.4 litres (net weight 2.22 kg). Being a shelf-stable product, it requires no refrigeration: store the unopened sachets in a cool, dry place away from heat and direct light, with a commercial shelf life of up to 24 months. Once a sachet is opened it is meant to be used immediately, which is exactly why the single-serve format is so hygienic and waste-free. The format keeps the cold chain free for products that truly need it.
