Redefining confectionery products with ingredient selection and applications
Unique chocolate flavor profiles can provide consumers with exciting food experiences.
Consumers cite budget, health, and lifestyle considerations as the top factors impacting decreased chocolate consumption in 2022, according to a 2023 Innova Category Survey.
