Handfuel expanded its offerings to include two new flavors. The Canadian snack company started in Cole Richman's Toronto kitchen, inspired by family recipes. The healthy snack company now offers products in new food categories. It continues to use quality, clean, non-GMO ingredients to create delicious clusters.

The healthy snack company now offers consumers its [Sweet Chili Nut Mix](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweet-spicy-sichuan). The mix includes almonds, cashews, and pecans spiced with sweet chili. The nutty and crunchy blend provides a source of fiber made with non-GMO nuts.
