GATSBY is not just introducing low-calorie Peanut Butter Cups but the lowest-calorie peanut butter cups on the market. With just 50 calories per cup, the milk chocolate and peanut butter indulgences from the brand are also said to be "about half the calories compared to the leading low-sugar peanut butter cups."
The rich and creamy peanut butter and chocolate snacks make a familiar childhood treat enjoyable without the excess sugar and calories. Knowing that many consumers want to eat without guilt, and without paying attention to the calories, the brand created a recipe that uses alternative sweeteners like allulose and MCT oil. The 50-calorie peanut butter cups share just two grams of sugar per serving for a well-balanced sweet treat.
