New food formats of classic flavors are being created with consumer demand in mind as they seek out different variations of their favorite products, which is seeing brands respond with options like the Swizzels Great British Dessert Chews.
The new candies from the brand marks 90 years in business and was developed as part of a competition held earlier this year to get consumers involved in the process. The candies are flavored after iconic British desserts like sticky toffee pudding, strawberry trifle and apple pie & custard, which are all perfect for enjoying at any time of day wherever you are.
The Swizzels Great British Dessert Chews will be manufactured starting in early 2019 with sales starting later into the new year.
