Functional Cheese Snacks

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Babybel Plus+ Snacks are Enriched with Vitamins and Probiotics

— January 6, 2021 — Lifestyle
Babybel is introducing its first range of functional cheese snacks with Babybel Plus+ and these products are enriched with added benefits from vitamins or probiotics. These new snacks help to recognize that the way families are snacking has changed since the start of the pandemic.

The Babybel Plus+ Probiotic is packed with billions of live and active cultures from the LGG probiotics strain, which has been shown to be helpful for supporting immune health. There's also the Babybel Plus+ Vitamins, which boasts added Vitamins A and B12 to support eye health and the metabolism. Both of these functional dairy snacks from Babybel are wrapped in the same signature red wax as ever, yet they can be found within pouch packaging for convenient snacking breaks in between work-from-home meetings or virtual classes.
