Fans of classic key lime pie will appreciate being able to enjoy a tiny version of a favorite treat with [Belmont's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lasso-motel-whiskey) [Key](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/key-lime-tea-cookies) Lime Pie Bites. These bite-sized summer snacks are frozen indulgences that are made with a graham crust, butter and key lime filling, all within a coating of chocolate. These perfectly portioned snacks contain just 60 calories and five grams of sugar.

At a time when people are gathering in groups once again, these [bite-sized treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bite-sized-pie) offer an appealing alternative to shareable pies, since these bites can be enjoyed on an individual basis. The flavors of key lime are cropping up in a variety of new formats, especially as consumers crave tastes that seem both familiar yet far-off.
