Black Cat Creamia has officially launched in South Africa, introducing a smoother, creamier and sweeter peanut butter as the iconic household brand celebrates its 100th anniversary.
The new Black Cat expands the brand’s existing peanut butter range and introduces a 1kg pack aimed at South African households looking for a combination of taste, versatility and value.
The launch marks another chapter for Black Cat as the century-old brand looks to maintain its familiar place in South African homes while responding to changing consumer preferences.
Black Cat Creamia brings a smoother and sweeter option
The new variant is positioned as a smoother, creamier and sweeter alternative to Black Cat’s original peanut butter.
It has been developed with everyday consumption in mind, including breakfast, school lunchboxes, snacks and family meals.
Black Cat has also refreshed the packaging for Creamia, giving the product its own identity on shelves while maintaining visual links to the established brand.
A new 1kg pack aimed at South African households
A key part of the Black Cat launch is the introduction of a 1kg format, giving households a larger pack option for a product that can be enjoyed across several everyday occasions.
The launch comes as South African consumers continue to pay close attention to value when shopping for household groceries.
Thabiso Masehla, marketing manager at Tiger Brands, said consumers are looking for products that balance taste, quality and value.
Creamia was therefore developed to provide something familiar to Black Cat consumers while offering a different taste and texture within the brand’s peanut butter range.
Black Cat marks a century in South African homes
The launch coincides with Black Cat’s 100-year milestone in South Africa, giving the household brand an opportunity to celebrate its heritage while introducing something new.
Rather than relying only on the familiarity built over a century, the new product allows Black Cat to evolve its portfolio while maintaining the identity consumers already associate with the brand.
The new variant does not replace Black Cat’s traditional peanut butter offering. Instead, it gives consumers another option based on their preferred taste, texture and pack size.
Where to find Black Cat Creamia in South Africa
Black Cat Creamia is currently available at leading South African retailers, including Pick n Pay and Checkers.
The combination of a sweeter and creamier recipe, a larger 1kg pack and the established Black Cat name gives the brand a fresh proposition as it enters its second century.
