FRUIT BLISS' DELICIOUSLY JUICY SECRET REVEALED Fruit Bliss ® ' naturally sun-sweetened USDA Certified Organic, non-GMO ver- ified apricots, plums, dates and figs are infused with water to deliver a delicious- ly juicy fruit every time. Made using high-quality whole fruit sourced from Turkey, France and Tunisia, these fruits are unlike any "dried" fruits on the mar- ket. They are uniquely moist and are a convenient, perfect snack. The big, but simple, secret of the delicious juiciness of Fruit Bliss is sim- ply water. The process is simple. First, the fruit is picked at its peak ripeness and then sun-dried for optimal sweetness. Next, the fruit gets a gentle steam bath to infuse some water. Finally, it is packed for on-the-go convenience. Fruit Bliss was founded in 2011 by Susan Leone, a mother on a mission to create a healthy and handy treat for the whole family. As a health-conscious mom, Susan is dedicated to creating a wholesome snack with no additional preservatives or sugars that the whole family can enjoy. Yes, even those picki- est of eaters will enjoy these delicious fruits. "When looking for snacks for my family that were both nutritious and con- venient, the grocery store aisles were turning up short," Leone said. "That is when I knew I had the opportunity to offer up something new to other active people like myself, whether looking for something new and healthy to feed the kids, or just a treat for yourself between work and yoga." For those living a busy, active lifestyle or those who find the healthy snack aisle limiting, Fruit Bliss is a wel- comed find. Packed with fiber and essen- tial vitamins, USDA Certified Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, gluten-free, vegan and OU Kosher certified, Fruit Bliss snacks are available in both reseal- able 5-ounce pouches and 1.76-ounce individual sized pouches.
