KANSAS CITY — New introductions are joining shelves in all sections of the grocery store, including the refrigerated and frozen aisles.
Hostess Brands is combining two of its snack cakes in a new mashup flavor. The Ding Dongs x Twinkies Mashups feature the spongy cake and cream filling from Twinkies, covered in the chocolate frosting of Ding Dongs. A permanent addition to Hostess’ portfolio, the snack cakes are available in a 10-count pack and may be found at Walmart locations nationwide.
Elsewhere, in the grocery store, refrigerated truffle bar company Honey Mama’s added its newest seasonal flavor: a lemon blueberry blonde truffle bar. The bar features the smooth texture of the company’s other bars, with honey-infused whole blueberries and a pop of lemon. The limited-edition flavor is available direct-to-consumer through the company’s website or at select retailers like Whole Foods Market and Sprouts.
Enlightened Ice Cream also has launched a line of Greek frozen yogurt pints, which have a Greek yogurt base for “added texture, taste and nutritional value,” according to the company. The line includes salted caramel cookie, brownies and cookie dough, coffee toffee, mint chip, kookie dough, and chocolate peanut butter flavors.
“After seeing our customers' response to our Greek yogurt bars earlier this year, we knew we had to try a pint version,” said Michael Shoretz, founder and chief executive officer of Enlightened. “We strive to make the best-tasting low sugar treats by constantly adapting and improving.”
