Nourishing Sugar-Free Marshmallows

Know Brainer's Max Mallows are Full of Healthy Fats & Protein

— October 9, 2019 — Lifestyle
Know Brainer, which is known for its keto-friendly drinks and single-serve creamers that are packed with healthy fats and no added sugar, recently expanded its product portfolio with sugar-free marshmallows. This unconventional functional snack is a guilt-free way to nourish the mind and body with beneficial fats and proteins from MCT oil and grass-fed hydrolyzed bovine collagen peptides. The Know Brainer Max Mallow snacks are available in both Classic Vanilla and Burnt Caramel flavors, which are enhanced only with the brand's own zero-sugar sweetener.

Although marshmallows are often seen as campfire treats, they are now becoming premium confections that are associated with gourmet flavors, clean-label ingredients, better-for-you snacking and even a few functional benefits that have the potential to appeal to adults and kids alike.
Trend Themes
1. Premium Confections - The trend of marshmallows becoming gourmet confections opens up opportunities for premium packaging, unique flavors, and high-quality ingredients.
2. Clean-label Ingredients - The demand for clean-label marshmallows with simple and natural ingredients presents opportunities for brands to create products that cater to health-conscious consumers.
3. Functional Benefits - The inclusion of functional ingredients like healthy fats and proteins in marshmallows opens up opportunities for brands to market them as guilt-free snacks with added nutritional value.
Industry Implications
1. Food & Beverage - Food and beverage companies can capitalize on the trend of premium, clean-label marshmallows by creating innovative products that cater to health-conscious consumers.
2. Snack Foods - The snack food industry has an opportunity to create guilt-free, functional snacks by incorporating beneficial ingredients like MCT oil and collagen peptides into marshmallow products.
3. Confectionery - The confectionery industry can explore the market of gourmet marshmallows by offering unique flavors, innovative packaging, and premium ingredients to attract adult consumers.
