At Natural Products Expo West, Oomph! Sweets will be introducing Oomph! Sweets Chews as a new way for fans to enjoy its low-sugar candies. These chews are packed with functional benefits from ingredients like cherry acerola, lion's mane and apple cider vinegar, and the all-natural candies are entirely vegan, gluten-free, keto-friendly, allergen-friendly and low in calories.
After the brand made its Expo East debut, it gleaned from Amazon insights and Shopify data to better understand what consumers want. At the upcoming trade show event, attendees will get the first taste of the brand's Mini Chews, a square-shaped sweet in nostalgic flavors like Dark Chocolate, Lemon, Passion Fruit and Green Apple.
Going forward, the brand is focused on innovation, new flavors and infrastructure to support highly anticipated retail launches.
