Product Snapshot: Blissfully Bleu Monterey and Wholly Jalapeno Pepper Jack recently joined Wausome Foods’ line of Wausome Wafers, gluten-free crisps made entirely with Wisconsin cheese. Blissfully Bleu Monterey combines creamy Monterey Jack cheese with real Roqueforti cultures; Wholly Jalapeno Pepper Jack features fresh, handcrafted Jack cheese and real, dried jalapeno peppers. Other flavors in the line are Clever Cheddar, made from locally-sourced, handcrafted cheddar, and Hug & Kiss Colby/Swiss, which has a sweet taste with a subtle bite of Swiss under creamy, tangy Colby. All are crispy enough to work as an appetizer or dessert base. They can also be used on and in a variety of foods.

This webinar will examine variables factoring into nutritionally improved candy sales, including ingredients, label claims, and alternative sugars. Better-for-you options remain top of mind for consumers who are searching for indulgences, but in a healthier format.
