Individually Wrapped Cheese Cubes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

'Brilliant Blue' Blue Cheese Cubes Come in Single-Serving Sizes

— July 7, 2016 — Lifestyle
Yellow Door Creamery’s Brilliant Blue brand carries single-serving blue cheese cubes that are conveniently packaged for individual use. Until ready to use, the two-ounce cheese cubes are stored in a protective portion-controlled packaging with a flip-top lid. These cheese cubes can be sliced and melted, but promise not to crumble when snacked on individually or served as a topping.

Now that many consumers have gotten into the habit of more frequent snacking over eating large meals throughout the day, calorie-controlled snacks in single-serve portions like this example are highly appealing for providing both portability and lasting freshness.

Sold in small portions like this, these blue cheese cubes may even coax wary consumers into trying a type of cheese that is notorious for having a distinct smell and taste.
Trend Themes
1. Convenient Portion-controlled Packaging - Packaging products in individual portions provides convenient and controlled snack options for consumers.
2. Rise of Calorie-controlled Snacks - The popularity of frequent snacking has increased the demand for calorie-controlled snack options in single-serve portions.
3. Encouraging Exploration of Unique Flavors - Packaging unique and distinct flavors like blue cheese in small, individual servings can entice consumers to try new tastes.
Industry Implications
1. Food Packaging - The food packaging industry can capitalize on the demand for convenient portion-controlled packaging for snacks.
2. Healthy Snacks - The healthy snack industry can meet the growing consumer demand for calorie-controlled snack options in single-serve sizes.
3. Specialty Cheese - The specialty cheese industry can attract more consumers by offering unique and distinct flavors in small, individually wrapped portions.
