The That's it. Chocolate Truffles are a series of vegan-friendly treats arriving at select Costco locations to offer shoppers with a free-from dessert option to pick up this winter. The product is making its debut for National Heart Health Month and is crafted with a blend of real fruit along with dark chocolate to prioritize a rich, deep and satisfying flavor profile. The product comes in two varieties including Dark Chocolate Coconut Date and Dark Chocolate Fig, which are each crafted with 60% cacao and four to five ingredients.
President Katie Eshuys spoke on the That's it. Chocolate Truffles saying, "Our goal has always been to create snacks that deliver on both taste and health. Following the success of our Mini Fruit Bars at Costco, we could not be more excited to provide Costco shoppers a premium, better-for-you chocolate option made with real fruit.”
