# Spicy Berry Dips Boursin's Spicy Cheese Dip Combines Jalapeno and Cranberries By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2015-11-04 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-cheese-dip References: [berryondairy.blogspot](http://berryondairy.blogspot.ca/2015/09/inclusions-forecast-bits-pieces-that.html) & [boursin](https://www.boursin.com/en_us/Products/Boursin-R-Cheese-Dip) While it's fairly common to see the flavor of cheese enhanced with spicy peppers, this spicy cheese dip from Boursin also includes another unusual ingredient—cranberries. This dip is like a spreadable version of the brand's Boursin Gournay cheese, and is also available in a range of classic flavors like Asiago & Roasted Red Pepper, Monterey Jack & Spicy Pepper, and Spinach & Artichoke—but the Cranberry Jalapeno flavor has to be the most interesting of the group. The spicy-sweet flavor of this dip likely lends itself well to both sweet and savory bases. Unique pairings like berries and peppers are growing to be sought out by consumers, especially those who enjoy discovering layers of complex flavors. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 14% | Activity: 38% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Spicy-sweet Combos:** Combining unexpected spicy and sweet flavors in food products can appeal to consumers seeking complex flavor profiles. - **Bold Dip Flavors:** Diversify dip flavors with bold and uncommon ingredient combos for added interest and exclusivity. - **Exploring Unique Pairings:** Consumers are increasingly seeking out unique flavor pairings and are open to trying new and unexpected combinations. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** Food and beverage companies can explore unique ingredient combinations to create exclusive and interesting products, capitalizing on the growing demand for complex and unusual flavor profiles. - **Snack Foods:** Snack food companies can tap into the trend of bold and unique dip flavors to provide consumers with an exciting snacking experience. - **Gourmet Products:** The trend of unique and unexpected ingredient pairings presents a lucrative opportunity for gourmet food and beverage companies to offer exclusive and luxurious products that cater to the evolving tastes of consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Spicy-Sweet Soft Cheeses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boursin-hot-honey-roasted-garlic.md) - [Spiced Cheese Snack Dips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheddar-jalapeo-bacon-dip.md) - [Sweet Pickle Dips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pickle-dip.md) - [Flavored Cheese Dip Lineups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roth-cheese-dips-spreads.md) - [Aromatic Whipped Dips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/castello-whipped-dips.md) - [Meta Chip-Infused Chip Dips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doritos-dip.md) - [Cranberry-Flavored Baked Cheeses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cranberry-baked-cheese.md) - [Tangy-Sweet Festive Dips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cranberry-orange-dip.md) - [Hot Honey Dips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-honey-dips.md)
