Best New Snack & Bakery Products of 2015

Astutely executed research and development processes can yield products that quickly resonate with today’s shoppers, driving significant levels of repeat purchase. And sometimes, a new product can help point new directions for an entire industry.

Such products also often win awards.

The products comprise the ballots for the Best New Snack & Bakery Products of 2015: one category for snack products released within the past year, and another category for bakery products, with one vote permitted in each category. Each product includes a link leading to complete details on the product. They represent every major trend across snack and bakery today, including portion control, gluten-free, artisan, bold flavors, better-for-you and convenience. The two winners will be announced in the January issue of Snack Food & Wholesale Bakery and online.
