Organic food supplier Biona has launched a new range of chocolate-covered fruit and nut snacks, which will be available to retailers from May onwards, with an RSP of £2.29.
The vegan-friendly snacks contain either almonds, strawberries or cherries. The almonds are oven-roasted and sprinkled with sea salt. The fruit versions contain freeze-dried strawberries or cherries, preserving their natural flavour, nutrients and colour. All three products are coated with Fair Trade-certified dark chocolate containing 62% cocoa that’s also free from palm oil.
Carmen Ferguson, Brand Manager at Biona’s parent company Windmill Organics, commented: “We’re delighted to bring to market these three new organic products that combine the nutritional power of nuts and fruit with the indulgence of high-quality dark chocolate.
“Not only are they delicious, but consumers will also like the fact they are packaged in paper, to meet the growing demand for more sustainable packaging solutions.”
