The In Good Hands Protein Puffs are being launched as a new, better-for-you take on the classic cheese puff snacks perfect for satisfying cravings, while also offering a functional recipe. The snack features 12-grams of milk protein in each serving with 130-calories, one-gram of sugar and no gluten in the mix. The snack comes in two flavors including the White Cheddar Protein Puffs and the Nacho Cheese Protein Puffs, which are both characterized by their crunchy texture and extra-cheesy flavor.
Director of Communications for California Dairies Inc. Stacy Heaton commented on the In Good Hands Protein Puffs saying, "Considering 51% of shoppers switched from traditional snacks to high-protein, lower sugar options in the last year, our Protein Puffs are just the right fit for how consumers snack today and the evolving wellness landscape."
