The So Gud square snacks have been created by a Scotland-based family business that aims to offer consumers a free-from way to indulge their sweet tooth. The snacks are made with a base of wholesome ingredients that have been paired with a number of fruits, nuts and seeds to create a treat that is as satisfying as it is flavorful. The squares come in four flavor varieties including the vegan-friendly Chewy Seed & Apricot and Nutty Seed & Walnut, the nut-free Juicy Oat & Raspberry and Spicy Oat & Apple Pie and the gluten-free Fruit Oat & Almond.
Founder of So Gud Terri Petrie spoke on the new products explaining that, "More than ever, people are checking labels and taking care that what they eat is good for them – while still wanting to indulge in something delicious. Our new chocolate covered and raspberry, white chocolate squares give people the opportunity to indulge themselves, without that guilty feeling.”
