Valeo Snackfoods-owned brand Fox's Glacier has announced the launch of a new range of HFSS-compliant sugar-free sweets. The vegan-friendly sweets are enhanced with natural stevia and contain eight calories. The range is available in two flavours: lemon, elderflower and mint, and strawberry and banana smoothie. Russell Tanner, marketing director at Valeo Snackfoods, said: “Fox's is well positioned to move into the health-conscious confectionery market, and as each sugar-free sweet is only eight calories, it makes for the perfect longer lasting, permissible sweet treat. We pride ourselves on using high-quality ingredients that suit a range of dietary needs, without compromising on taste, and the new sugar-free flavours are no exception.” Fox's Glacier sugar-free sweets are available at Co-op stores across the UK.
