HORSHAM, PA — Little Bites® Snacks has expanded its popular assortment of baked goods with the introduction of two new varieties that promise indulgence without the guilt. The brand announced the launch of Little Bites® Lower Sugar Apple Cinnamon Muffins and Little Bites® Lower Sugar Chocolate Muffins, both of which boast significantly reduced sugar content and the inclusion of real fruit, chocolate, and even hidden vegetables.
This latest offering from Little Bites® aims to address the growing demand for healthier snack options that do not compromise on taste. With obesity and diabetes rates on the rise, particularly among children, many families are seeking more nutritious alternatives to traditional sugary snacks. Lia Arakelian, Brand Manager for Little Bites® Snacks, emphasized the company’s commitment to providing delicious yet better-for-you choices for both children and adults.
The Lower Sugar Apple Cinnamon Mini Muffins contain 9 grams of sugar per serving, a reduction of 40% compared to leading blueberry mini muffins in the market. Furthermore, these muffins surprise consumers with hidden zucchini, offering an unexpected nutritional boost without artificial colors. On the other hand, the Lower Sugar Chocolate Mini Muffins feature 8 grams of sugar and incorporate sweet potato, achieving a 60% reduction in sugar compared to the leading brownie mini muffins.
These innovations align with a broader industry trend towards healthier snacking solutions. By incorporating real ingredients and disguising vegetables within their products, Little Bites® is not only appealing to taste preferences but also contributing to better eating habits.
At 160 calories per pouch, the new muffins offer a convenient and portion-controlled option for busy families on the go.
