Seth Greenberg's Authentic New York Brownie Crunch, the newest concept in the snack aisle, is just the crispy edges of the brownie that form around the baking pan. There is no other similar snack made with such quality ingredients. And high quality makes great taste! It is all-natural and only 120 calories per 1-ounce serving. "Seth and I are committed to producing Brownie Crunch with only the best ingre- dients, a philosophy derived from the Greenberg family's 50-plus years in high- end baking," said Steve Fass, President and CEO of Seth Greenberg's Authentic New York Brownie Crunch. "We truly be- lieve that the best ingredients make the best-tasting product." Brownie Crunch is made with fresh eggs and vanilla, creamery butter and high qual- ity cocoa powder and sugar. This gives Brownie Crunch a cleaner, more intense and distinctive flavor. The company never uses anything artificial, and it avoids the less expensive, more commercial prod- ucts like corn syrup solids, soybean oil, soy oil and egg white powder, common in many similar snack products. Seth Greenberg and Steve Fass have years of experience and relationships with small, quality suppliers of baking products. The vanilla they use is sourced from a com- pany that not only owns its own vanilla bean orchards but also processes the beans, cre- ating its own aromatic, flavorful, natural and kosher vanilla extract. For the toffee chips, Greenberg has them made just for Brownie Crunch and to his specifications for flavor and piece size, as well as to withstand the Crunch baking process. The newest line of Brownie Crunch, Southwest Crunch, brings together the sweet taste of rich chocolate and the spicy tastes of jalapeño, chili pepper and smoky chipotle. Inspired by the way chocolatiers have created unique flavor combinations with chocolate and spices from all over the world, Greenberg experimented with many varieties of spicy, southwestern peppers Brownie Crunch: "Read Our Label. There's No Comparison"
