Cox & Co launches new mini bars

Cox & Co launches new mini bars

Luxury single-origin dark chocolate brand, Cox & Co, has created the perfect mini treat for dark chocolate fans with the launch of its new 15g bar selection.

Providing bite-sized versions of its most popular flavours, the new 15g bars are available in four delicious flavours; Miso & Caramel (47 per cent), Blood Orange Crunch (60 per cent), Mint Crunch (60 per cent) and Plain Milk (41 per cent) and are perfect for retailers looking for high quality grab and go sweet treats.


Cox & Co’s chocolate bars are crafted from the finest single-origin Colombian cacao, using Luker Chocolate blended with delicious superfoods to create unique flavour combinations.

“We launched a smaller version (25g) of our luxury dark chocolate bars earlier this year and found them really popular with customers, so we decided to create a bite-sized bar, perfect for those looking for a quick sweet treat whilst on-the-go,” explains Gavin Cox, Founder of Cox & Co.

Targeting eco-conscious chocolate lovers, Cox & Co. is launching the new 15g range in its innovative paper flow wrapper, helping to reduce the huge amount of confectionery packaging waste that currently ends up in landfill, or contaminates current recycling.

“We are phasing out our current wood-pulp based, home compostable wrapping, in favour of new paper flow wrappers,” continues Gavin. “There is a demand for confectionery that doesn’t make customers choose between being ethical or enjoying an indulgent treat and our new mini bars place equal importance on both.”

Cox & Co’s mission is to create delicious chocolate that is truly different, made with care and sustainability in mind. Working with Colombia’s Luker Chocolate estate, Cox & Co invest in farmers, communities and sustainable farming methods to produce chocolate that’s as ethical as possible.

Cox & Co’s new 15g chocolate bars are available to all retailers. Wholesale price 70p per bar, RRP £1.25.

Swizzels limited-edition Valentine’s Day treat

Swizzels limited-edition Valentine’s Day treat

Sweet maker Swizzels has unveiled a brand-new limited-edition product in time for Valentine’s Day, combining two of its most-loved brands into one treat: Squashies Love Hearts.

Offering a fresh twist on two popular classics, the new Squashies Love Hearts combine Squashies’ signature soft texture with the iconic and timeless messages of Love Hearts.

Squashies remain the No. 1 sugar confectionery brand in the market, while Love Hearts see consistent growth, with 950,000 units sold during the Valentine’s period and a 10 per cent year-on-year growth in brand value. Building on this success, Swizzels has combined the two household names to create a fast-moving and profitable addition to any retailer’s offering.

Available in 120g bags and sold in cases of 12, each foam sweet is embossed with a fun message or emoji, making them ideal for sharing with a loved one. Messages include "KISS", "WOW", "FAB", and "LOVE", alongside two cheerful and romantic emojis, adding a playful touch.

With an MRSP of £1.15, the new product retains the classic colours and flavours of traditional Love Hearts, including Pineapple, Lime, Blackcurrant, Lemon, Cherry, and Orange.

Swizzels’ Love Hearts range remains a Valentine’s Day favourite, led by the popular 39g Giant Love Hearts rolls, which outsell any other Valentine’s SKU with 621,000 units sold during the season.



Other fan-favourites from the range include Love Hearts Originals Hanging Bags, the 15g mini Love Hearts rolls and Giant Love Hearts multipacks.

“We’re excited to introduce a delicious and innovative new product that combines two of our most popular brands, delivering the same moreish flavours and signature texture - with an added twist," said trade marketing manager Clare Newton.
