The Birch Benders Cookies are being launched by the US-based pancake and waffle mix brand as a ready-to-eat treat for consumers to choose when seeking out a way to indulge without losing sight of their dietary preferences.
The cookies come in four flavor options including Chocolate Chip, Double Chocolate Chip, Snickerdoodle and Vanilla Shortbread, which are all gluten-free, Keto-friendly with less than five net carbs per servings and have no added sugar. The cookies are arriving on the brand's website as well as through Amazon later this month, while retailer availability will also be observed.
General Manager at Birch Benders Lucy Rand spoke further on the Birch Benders Cookies saying, "The snack aisle is full of empty carbs and excess sugar, which leaves consumers with few options for delicious, satisfying, feel-good snacks and treats. That’s why Birch Benders focuses on creating delicious, better-for-you versions of the comforting foods people enjoy. We are thrilled to bring our cookies to the snack aisle.”
