Forest Feast unveils two new ranges of chocolate nuts and slow roasted seasoned nuts

Snacking brand Forest Feast has announced the launch of two new ranges, Signature Chocolate Nut and Slow Roasted & Seasoned Nut.

The new Signature Chocolate Nut range is handcrafted in-house, using oven roasted nuts coated in real Belgian chocolate.

The brand hopes to capitalise on the growth in demand for premium and indulgent snacks with the new range.

“Take-home chocolate is currently growing 15 per cent YoY, with 98 per cent penetration [IRI], and we are seeing between 150-250 per cent growth in our own chocolate ranges,” commented Bronagh Clarke, marketing director at Forest Feast.

“With more people spending time together at home, the range is well primed to meet demand from the current trend of in-home snacking. Each one has its own unique ingredient twist and they are all oven-roasted with their skin-on to give real depth of flavour.”

The range includes three variants, Sea Salted Dark Chocolate Almonds, Belgian Milk Chocolate Brazils and Cookies & Cream Almonds, and is available now with an RRSP of £3.00/120g.

The new Slow Roasted & Seasoned Nut range from the brand aims to tap into the growing demand for premium in-home & sharing savoury snacks.

“We have seen strong growth in sharing snacks as the nation continues to spend more time at home. Consumers are looking for snacks that elevate their nights in with each other, and they are leaning more towards indulgent and artisan products with honest ingredients,” commented Clarke.

The range of nuts are all seasoned in-house with local and artisan ingredients, and then slowly roasted in small batches to perfection.

Available in six variants, the Forest Feast Slow Roasted Nuts are gluten free and come with an RRSP of £3.00/120g.
