OCHO previously introduced Dark Peanut Butter and Peanut Butter chocolate bars, but it is now introducing a PB&J bar that offers those with a sweet tooth a fun new way to indulge in the taste of a classic sandwich combination.
The PB&J bar pairs a layer of peanut butter with raspberry filling, all of which is wrapped in a coating of milk chocolate.
Across the food and beverage industry, a number of products are offering reinterpretations of this peanut butter and jelly not just as a dynamic flavor combination, but also a nostalgic treat; the sweet pairing of nut butter and fruit jam promises to delight kids with a tried-and-true mix of flavors and textures, as well as remind adults of simpler times from their childhood.
