Botanically Sweetened Chocolate Bars

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Lily's Sweets' Intensely Dark Chocolate Has No Added Sugar

— September 10, 2019 — Lifestyle
At this year's Natural Products Expo East, Lily's Sweets will be expanding upon its range of decadent yet healthy botanically sweetened chocolates and confections with new no-sugar-added treats, including an all-new 92% Intensely Dark variety. This ultra-dark and rich chocolate bar is sweetened with stevia and offers a satisfying way to indulge a sweet tooth without sugar.

The chocolate bar, crafted with non-GMO ingredients, joins other dark and rich chocolate bar flavors from the brand like Almond Dark Chocolate, Coconut Dark Chocolate and the texture-rich Crispy Rice Dark Chocolate. The new vegan-friendly 92% Intensely Dark variety instantly stands out for its high cocoa content, as the other options from the brand contain somewhere in the range from 40% to 85% cocoa.
Trend Themes
1. Botanically Sweetened Products - A growing demand for healthier food options creates opportunities for businesses to utilize alternative sweeteners like stevia in satisfying consumers' cravings for sweetness without the added sugar.
2. Dark Chocolate Varieties - Offering more options of dark chocolate that cater to different taste preferences, such as high cocoa content options like Lily's Sweets' 92% Intensely Dark Chocolate, can help businesses meet growing demand in the healthy chocolate market.
3. Non-gmo Ingredients - A focus on using non-GMO ingredients can differentiate companies and products, appealing to a consumer base that is increasingly more health-conscious and concerned with the effects of GMOs on the environment and human health.
Industry Implications
1. Chocolate - Innovations in the chocolate industry, such as using alternative sweeteners and non-GMO ingredients, can provide healthier options that meet consumer demand for indulgences without harming their health.
2. Natural Foods - The rise of natural food products, including those with alternative sweeteners and non-GMO ingredients, can create new opportunities for businesses to tap into the growing health-conscious consumer market.
3. Vegan Products - Businesses that provide vegan-friendly options, like Lily's Sweets' 92% Intensely Dark Chocolate, can tap into a growing market of consumers looking for plant-based and cruelty-free products.
