Volvic expands Touch of Fruit range with new Peach & Raspberry flavour

Volvic has revitalised its Volvic Touch of Fruit sugar free range with a new Peach & Raspberry flavour, with added vitamin B6.

The announcement follows the recent relaunch of Touch of Fruit’s branding in Summer 2021, with the new packaging offering a more eye-catching look alongside their ‘Beyond Your Expectations’ summer campaign that further highlighted modernity and bold taste.


Volvic said Touch of Fruit Sugar Free range has grown in value sales by 36 per cent over 2021, appealing to consumers who wish to stay hydrated without compromising on great taste. The new addition to the range boasts the sweet taste of juicy white peaches combined with floral raspberry notes for a refreshing twist.

Volvic added that Peach & Raspberry flavoured drinks grew by 17 per cent within the soft drinks category over 2021.

The new flavour is available in a 1.5L bottle, exclusively available in ASDA until March, when it will be rolled out to other large supermarkets and impulse channels. The launch will be supported with online & in-store activity, alongside influencer and buzzy PR moments.

“The Volvic Touch of Fruit range has been delivering strong growth across the market in the last year, and the launch of this popular flavour combination is a tasty way to help even more people stay hydrated,” Gemma Morgan, Category Marketing Director at Danone, said.

“Consumers are looking to make more mindful food and drink choices, and we believe flavoured water has a key role to play in offering a refreshing alternative to soft drinks, that won’t compromise on taste. As the category continues to evolve, we’re seeing greater uptake from retailers for our market leader, Touch of Fruit, with the sugar free range particularly driving continuous growth for the brand.”

Volvic Touch of Fruit is the refreshing combination of Volvic Natural Mineral Water and delicious natural flavour, and is available in seven Sugar Free flavours, with less than 4 calories per serving.

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.
