New Products
We’ve been scouring the country for great new products at recent trade shows, from the Summer
Fancy Food Show to the Atlanta International Gift & Home Furnishings Market. Here are a few items
that simply landed on my desk.

Cornelia Kitty and Astor Owl after
streets in Manhattan – are perfect
for keeping food and drinks cool on
the way to day care, pre-school or
picnic play-dates. Each lunch bag fits

Jelly Belly Candy Company has
teamed up with Snapple to create
a new line of Jelly Belly beans with
Snapple Juice Drinks. The candy-makers began at the source with
Snapple Juice Drink concentrates in
five tangy and sweet Snapple flavors:
Fruit Punch, Mango Madness, Cranberry Raspberry, Pink Lemonade and
Kiwi Strawberry. The gourmet jelly
beans burst with Snapply goodness.
Jelly Belly Snapple Mix hit the market
online at JellyBelly.com in July and
in 10-pound bulk cases at candy
stores. This month, the company
plans to release a 3.1-ounce bag
in 12-count cases. Also scheduled for fall is a clever 1.65-ounce Jelly
Belly Snapple Bottle. Jelly Belly Snapple Mix is fat-free,
gluten-free, dairy-free and certified OU Kosher. One
more bonus from Jelly Belly is its beans drenched in
rich, dark chocolate. Its newest Mint Chocolate Dips
flavor joins Very Cherry, Raspberry, Strawberry,
Coconut, and Orange to create the perfect pairing
with decadent dark chocolate. Jelly Belly Chocolate
Dips are available nationwide in bulk and 2.8-ounce
bags. A 4.15-ounce Gift Box showcasing five flavors
makes a delicious gift for special occasions.
