Kabang Energy Candy has announced a new formulation and branding that will help transition the product into its next era for consumers of all kinds to try out.
The candy will transition from a hard shell composition to a chewy texture, which will keep it in line with the changing preferences of today's consumer. The candy will offer a boost to energy levels without any caffeine thanks to its vitamins B12, B6, B1 and C in the mix. The product features four bold fruit flavors including Cherry, Grape, Apple and Watermelon, which will each reveal a fizzy center upon being chewed.
The new and improved Kabang Energy Candy will launch this summer at convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores and beyond.
