CORE Foods created a new line of truffle chocolates with functional benefits thanks to carefully chosen beneficial ingredients. While anyone can appreciate flavors like Dark Chocolate & Sprinkles (Chill Out,) Peanut Butter Chocolate (Power Up) or Matcha Coconut Chocolate (Energize), ingredient-conscious consumers will appreciate each of their respective additions—ashwagandha, protein and matcha.
These rich, low-sugar dark chocolates fueled by functional ingredients promise to help satisfy a sweet tooth without causing a sugar crash.
Functional chocolates are beloved by consumers who want to treat themselves to fun flavors and nutritional benefits. These indulgent treats offer the benefit of satisfying cravings without the guilt associated with unhealthy snacks, especially heavily processed, sugar-laden chocolates that are prevalent in the confectionery category. As the brand puts it, these are "dessert-like snacks with low sugar that actually taste good."
