The HAPPi oat m!lk chocolate range is being expanded by the brand in the UK as a way to tempt flexitarians with a new series of options to incorporate into their seasonal celebrations. The range will now include the Christmas Pudding Hot Chocolate Spoons, Christmas Mega Slab Bar and the Candy Cane Buttons, which are priced ranging from £19 to £42.96, depending on the variety. The products are crafted with familiar flavor experiences in mind and are expected to catch the attention of consumers seeking out something new this year.
Founder Gavin Cox commented on the expanded holiday HAPPi oat m!lk chocolate range saying, "Our Hot Chocolate Spoons have always been incredibly popular at Christmas so this year we decided to add a sprinkle of festive flavours with these new Christmas Pudding Spoons. After the success of our Candy Cane Flavoured Festive Bar last year, we wanted to give customers the choice by also offering this in buttons format, perfect for sharing and snacking."
