Hawaiian Host's Flavors of Aloha chocolate bar collection captures the essence of Hawaii with novel flavors, ingredients and textures.
The manufacturer of chocolate-covered macadamia nuts introduced its newest range of chocolate bars at the 2022 Sweets & Snacks Expo, including Island Bounty (milk chocolate topped with toasted coconut,) Rocky Road to Paradise (milk chocolate with roasted and salted macadamia nuts and sweet marshmallows) and Surfer's Breakfast (a dark chocolate bar topped with granola and coffee.) Also in the tropically themed chocolate bar line, there are varieties with passion fruit, dried mango, and pretzel pieces.
These bars tap into consumers' desire for multi-textured treats since they combine the rich, smoothness of a decadent chocolate base with totally unique and crunchy toppings.
