Botanically Sweetened Nut Snacks

Lily's Sweets' Dark Chocolate-Covered Almonds Have No Added Sugar

Lily's Sweets will be introducing eight new products as of the spring, one of which includes its no-sugar-added Dark Chocolate-Covered Almonds, which are sweetened with stevia. These botanically sweetened nut snacks are packaged in shareable pouch packs and contain only a gram or less of sugar per serving.

At Natural Products Expo West, Lily's Sweets will be introducing a modernized version of its brand and in the spring, its new range of new no-added-sugar products will be launched, alongside campaigns to show that life can be just as sweet without sugar.
