Godiva's new G Cubes Collection introduces a range of individually wrapped chocolate cubes that are filled with ganache in different flavors. The range includes varieties such as White Chocolate Coffee, Milk Chocolate Matcha and Dark Chocolate Strawberry, each of which is packaged in a cube-shaped box. To complete the theme of the G Cubes Collection, the individually wrapped chocolates take the form of small cubes topped with the letter "G."
These chocolate cubes have the potential to appeal to consumers who are looking for portion-controlled indulgences, as well as those who are seeking out aesthetically pleasing gifts to share—as each G Cubes box boasts its own bright color.
For the fall season, the G Cubes Collection is being introduced with a limited-edition Milk Chocolate Pumpkin Spice variety that is touted as "a great gift for Halloween or chocolate gift for your Thanksgiving host."
