The Voortman Perfectly Sweet cookies are a series of products perfect for consumers looking to reduce their intake of sugar, while still enjoying their favorite baked goods. The cookies are crafted with 25% less sugar than leading cookies and are thus perfect for satisfying cravings in a permissible way. The cookies come in seven varieties to choose from including Oatmeal Dark Chocolate Chunk, Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal Raisin, Almond Crunch, Coconut, Shortbread and Windmill, which each come in resealable packaging for optimal freshness.
Vice President of Marketing, Sweet Baked Snacks at The J.M. Smucker Co. Chris Balach spoke on the new Voortman Perfectly Sweet cookies saying, "We set out to create reduced-sugar cookie recipes that don’t compromise on taste, which led us to the perfectly sweet spot: 25% less sugar than the leading cookie. Voortman Perfectly Sweet cookies truly deliver on the great taste consumers demand from their cookies. Life is too short for cookies that don’t taste like cookies, so we are excited to bring sugar-conscious snackers just the right amount of indulgence for their balanced lifestyles.”
