Sweeten National Candy Month with These Made-with-Honey Confections

Better ingredient information. What’s the calorie count? Is it organic or gluten-free? Ritual’s Honeycomb Toffee dark chocolate bar has a clean label with clear ingredient listings: wildflower honey, honeycomb toffee, and organic cacao. The 75% chocolate bar’s description contains information about ingredient sourcing, sure to delight consumers celebrating National Candy Month.

Social responsibility and transparency. 62% of consumers said, “the way a brand behaves will have an impact on their purchases,” and they also want to be able to source chocolate and other ingredients back to their origins. CocoaBee’s new Dark Chocolate Whole Almonds bar is sweetened with honey in an 85-gram bar. The bar is clearly labeled as Fair Trade Certified, and it’s made with 73% cocoa.

Sustainability. Does the product harm the planet? What about packaging waste? Companies that are able to answer these questions are faring much better in the confectionary world. Godiva’s Belgian Truffles are part of the “Our Latest Innovations” lineup, and there are two made-with-honey truffles that are perfect for mixing and matching assorted chocolate gifts either for yourself or a loved one. The Truffe Mousse Vanilla Miel pieces are made with wildflower honey, infused ganache, light vanilla mousse, and dark chocolate. Truffe Amande au Miel is almond pralines with honey and almond pieces, encased in a milk chocolate shell and rolled in caramelized roasted almond pieces.
