It is fairly common to find tart cups sold in large quantities by the tray, but Hail Merry is making them easier for single-serve grab-and-go consumption. Rather than selling a large set of tart snacks for sharing, Hail Merry launched a trio of flavors for tarts that are sold in just small-scale packs of two.
The Meyer Lemon, Dark Chocolate Espresso and Chocolate Almond Butter Cups are bite-sized vegan snacks that are made with a list of simple ingredients, plus healthy fats from coconut oil and nuts for satiety.
When these all-new tart cups were presented at this year's Natural Products Expo West, the Two-Pack Cups received a New Hope NEXTY Award under the Best New Sweet or Dessert category.
