SWEETS & TREATS SHOW EXTRA GOURMET NEWS n MAY 2016 n www.gourmetnews.com S T 1 7 Nature's Bakery Introduces New Double Chocolate Brownie Line An interview with Andrew C. Strolin, Vice President of Marketing, Nature's Bakery. GN: Tell our readers about the Nature's Bak- ery brand. AS: It's a story of three generations with a fourth generation on deck. At the start of the natural foods movement in the 1960s, Richard Marson opened a bakery that cham- pioned products crafted with thoughtful in- gredients. With entrepreneurial spirit and passion in his baking, Richard built a suc- cessful family bakery. Dave Marson, Richard's son, grew up in the family business, shared his father's zeal and chose to make the family bakery his life's work. Dave spent several decades hon- ing his skills as a baker before acting on an idea that he had pondered for years: launch- ing his own brand. In 2010, Dave partnered with his son Sam and together created Nature's Bakery. With a devotion to quality and using thoughtful in- gredients, their mission was simple: to craft delicious convenient snack and food experi- ences that people can feel good about and enjoy in their everyday life's great journeys. GN: Are you introducing any new products? AS: Yes. We're very excited to introduce our latest creation from the bakery, a new Double Chocolate Brownie line. It's a simple, soft baked chocolate treat made to be enjoyed anytime, anywhere. Staying true to our belief in crafting products with thoughtful ingredi- ents, our brownies contain eight grams of whole grains per one-ounce serving. They are Kosher certified, Non-GMO Project ver- ified, vegan certified, dairy-free and they contain no high fructose corn syrup. You get a soft baked outside with a light moist choco- late center blended with dates for that perfect touch of sweetness. Flavors include Choco- late Double Chocolate, Raspberry Double Chocolate, Mint Double Chocolate and Blueberry Double Chocolate.
