Marketing and all things related

You already know that the secret to a long life is dark chocolate. (In the absence of dark chocolate, regular chocolate might help as well.) In any event, we learned from our friends Convenience Store News that Hershey’s just unveiled a new line of premium all-natural chocolates and drinking cacao called Cacao Reserve. Flavors include Premium Milk, Premium Dark with Hazelnuts, Extra Dark, and Extra Dark with Nibs. Nibs are the actual heart of the cacao bean and add crunch and extra flavor to the chocolate. (Don’t take one bite “over the line” of this puppy.)  The drinking cacao will be available in Classic Mayan, and Mildly Spiced Aztec. The new premium line is available in September. In December, Hershey’s is adding bars with cacao beans from a single origin—Java, Indonesia, Arriba, Santo Domingo, and Sao Tome. So get ready to eat your way around the world. Photo Credit: Hershey’s
