Gummy supplement manufacturer TopGum has debuted HoneyGum, a new line of natural, honey-based functional gummies.
According to the company, the range is unique due to its use of pure, high-dose liquid honey as opposed to commonly used powdered honey.
Five functional gummies are launching as part of the new line, each targeting specific health categories. They come in a hexagonal shape, inspired by natural honeycombs, designed for tactile and visual appeal.
Honey Sleep Relaxation features 500mg of honey with chamomile extract, GABA, l-theanine and valerian in a calming lemon and chamomile flavour, designed to promote restful sleep.
Honey Immune combines 500g of honey with elderberry, vitamin D and other vitamins in a mixed berry flavour, while the apple-flavoured Honey Immune Ginger combines ginger, propolis and 500mg of honey.
Honey Energy delivers b vitamins and caffeine alongside the 500mg honey, designed to provide an energy boost and available in a tangerine flavour.
Finally, High-Dose Honey offers the highest amount of honey in a single gummy, featuring a natural, light brown hue and enriched with biotin for beauty-from-within.
Jennifer Toomey, head of new product development, US at TopGum, said: “Combining liquid honey into a stable gummy matrix in a way that hits the right texture and flavour notes is a complex process. But it was important for us to showcase the benefits of honey without the unnecessary additives that can come with a dry or powdered ingredient.”
The HoneyGums were created using the company’s technology for combining pure liquid honey with its patented, fibre-based prebiotic gummy matrix. This process leverages the natural sweetness and prebiotic benefits of fructo-oligosaccharides with the goodness and signature flavour of honey.
