Pork King Good, a pork rind manufacturer and the only female-owned pork rind company in the U.S., has announced its dessert line of pork rinds. The company's Old Timey Butterscotch flavor from the dessert line was selected as a finalist in the 2023 Most Innovative New Product Award at the Sweets & Snacks Expo.

The recognition at the 2023 Sweets & Snacks Expo in Chicago is a testament to Pork King Good's commitment to innovation. Among fierce competition from numerous new products, the Old Timey Butterscotch flavor stood out, captivating judges and industry experts. Notably, Pork King Good's achievement is further highlighted by the inclusion of products from well-established companies such as Hershey and General Mills among the other finalists.

"We are incredibly honored to be named a finalist in the 2023 Most Innovative New Product Award alongside renowned companies like Hershey and General Mills," said Lauren Koston, founder of Pork King Good. "To be recognized alongside such successful companies is a testament to our dedication to pushing boundaries and delivering unique flavors. We are grateful for the opportunity to represent Pork King Good and the local pork rind industry in such esteemed company."

The dessert line from Pork King Good introduces a wide range of delectable flavors, including:

  • Birthday Cake
  • Cinnamon ChurWhoa
  • Apple Cinnamon
  • Old-Timey Butterscotch (award-nominated)

The pork rinds combine a crunchy texture with sweetness. Pork King Good sees the dessert line as a unique way to stand apart from the competition by offering a sweeter version of a typically savory snack. It also presents a perfect option for the low-carb/keto-curious shopper looking to satisfy their sweet tooth.

The launch of Pork King Good's dessert line presents an excellent opportunity for distributors and retail partners to add incrementality and additional consumption occasions to the category. The unique flavors and innovative concepts create new possibilities for consumers to enjoy pork rinds as a sweet indulgence.

Building on its success, Pork King Good is actively exploring national distribution to bring their innovative dessert line to a wider audience. Retailers and distributors interested in partnering with Pork King Good and offering their products are invited to contact sales@porkkinggood.com for samples and further information.

As a "proudly quirky" pork rind company, Pork King Good has been committed to filling the market gap for low-carb and high-protein savory snacks and cooking options. Its products, cooked in its own pork fat, boast clean labels with no artificial ingredients, colors, or flavors.
