The snacks feature a base of nougat that's paired with a caramel layer before being covered with Cadbury chocolate to give them a sweet yet light flavor profile. The bars come in three flavors including Salted Caramel, Hazelnut & Caramel and Orange & Caramel, which each come in at 91-calories each. Brand Manager Abi Eayrs spoke on the Cadbury Delights bars saying, "Consumers are increasingly looking for [lower calorie snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whims) where they don’t have to compromise on taste or satisfaction, with the lower calorie chocolate category growing by over 21% annually. We believe our new range of Cadbury Delights presents a huge opportunity for retailers and wholesalers to drive incremental sales.” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 24% | Activity: 53% | Freshness: 14% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Low-calorie Snacks:** As consumers increasingly look for lower calorie snack options, there is a growing opportunity for companies to develop and market health-conscious products. - **Alternative Candy Bars:** As more consumers seek healthier options, there is a potential market for companies to create alternative products with lower sugar content and healthier ingredients. - **Innovative Flavor Profiles:** There is an opportunity for companies to develop and market unique, low-calorie flavor profiles that appeal to consumers looking for healthier snack options. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Confectionery Industry:** As the confectionery industry faces greater scrutiny for the health impact of its products, there is a growing demand for lower calorie and healthier snack options. - **Food Retail Industry:** As consumers increasingly seek healthier options, there is an opportunity for retailers to offer a wider range of low-calorie snack alternatives to attract health-conscious customers. - **Food Manufacturing Industry:** There is an opportunity for food manufacturers to develop and market low-calorie snack options that provide consumers with healthier alternatives to traditional confectionery products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Indulgent Low-Calorie Snack Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alpen-delight-bars.md) - [Lightly Coated Oat Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cadbury-brunch-light.md) - [Nutty Low-Sugar Chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cadbury-dairy-milk-fruitier-nuttier.md) - [Textural Low-Sugar Candy Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cadbury-dairy-milk-fruitier-nuttier1.md) - [Candy Bar Dessert Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/white-chocolate-caramel-crme-dessert.md) - [Low-Calorie Chocolate Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lowestcalorie-chocolate-bar.md) - [Textural Premium Candy Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cadbury-bars.md) - [Sugar-Reducing Chocolate Technologies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-bar-technology.md) - [Plant-Based Double-Chocolate Snack Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buttermlk-double-choccy-snack-bar.md)
