Bare Snacks makes apple chips, banana chips and coconut chips, and its newest baked fruit chip product is a limited-edition one that combines three different kinds of fruit in a single bag—the Fruit Medley is made up of strawberry, banana and pineapple pieces. The new snack is Non-GMO Project verified, gluten-free and a healthy alternative to conventional potato chips.
While there are plenty of vegetable crisps that are currently available on the market, these fruit chips offer a sweet alternative to savory snacking.
These free-from snacks are ideal for consumers who are looking for extremely simple ingredient lists powered by whole foods, as well as a satisfying treat that is oil-free and a great source of fiber.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Multi-fruit Snacks
- There is an opportunity for companies to experiment with various fruit combinations in snacks with clean ingredient lists and appealing flavor profiles.
- Sweet Snacking
- Brands can target consumers who may not prefer savory snacks by offering healthy, baked, and sweet fruit chips as an alternative.
- Free-from Snacking
- There is potential for companies to cater to the growing consumer demand for snacks that are oil-free and gluten-free, yet still satisfying and tasty.
Sectors Adopting This
