# Coffee-Flavored Coffee Creamers Unlocked by Coffee Mate Takes the Bitterness Out of Black Coffee By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2020-09-25 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unlocked-by-coffee-mate References: [foodbusinessnews.net](https://www.foodbusinessnews.net/media/photos/4200-new-on-the-shelves) & [coffeemate](https://www.coffeemate.com/) Unlocked by Coffee Mate is a new line of coffee creamers that are specifically designed to balance out the bitterness of traditional black coffee and add richness and creaminess to beverages. Unlike many flavored creamers on the market that boast ultra-decadent, dessert-inspired or novelty flavors, these ones takes the form of coffee-flavored coffee creamers. The varieties themselves are inspired by different kinds of coffee blends so there are types like Classic Colombian and Italian Espresso Roast for coffee lovers to choose from. The coffee-flavored coffee creamers help to enhance, rather than distract from, the unique traits of popular coffee blends. The packaging designs for the creamers vibrantly depict what a splash of creamer adds in terms of flavor and richness.
