Garden Veggie Holiday Trees have been debuted from Hain Celestial as a limited time offering that embraces the holiday spirit to help consumers celebrate with family and friends this season.
The product consists of the brand's signature veggie-made snack that has been formed into Christmas tree-shaped pieces and covered with a Zesty Ranch seasoning. The snack is thus great for serving to guests during the holidays or simply as a way to liven up snacking occasions with a touch of festive cheer. The snack is certified gluten-free and Kosher with no trans fat or cholesterol in each serving, and is launching as a Target exclusive. Priced at $3.59, the snack comes in 170-gram bags.
Senior Director of Brand Building and Activation Julia Nathan commented on the Garden Veggie Holiday Trees saying, "The holidays are all about sparking a little extra joy in everyday moments, and Garden Veggie Holiday Trees bring that magic straight to snack time. With a festive shape and zesty ranch-flavored crunch, they add a playful twist that kids can’t get enough of, whether as a surprise in their lunchbox, a treat during holiday storytime, or the finishing touch on a gingerbread village. It’s a fun, flavorful snack that stays true to our better-for-you roots, delivers the trusted taste families crave, and is one parents can feel good about.”
