Eight New Products To look For At Expo West

While the CPG community is making its way back to Anaheim for the first in-person Natural Products Expo West since 2019, many brands are geared up and plenty of new product launches are already rolling in. Here’s an early preview of some of the new products debuting at the show you should check out.

Alden’s Organic

Ice cream maker Alden’s is debuting five new novelties at this year’s show including three dairy free ice cream bars in Dark Chocolate Almond, Dark Chocolate Vanilla and Coffee Swirl flavors. In addition to the bars, the organic ice cream brand will unveil its Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free Vanilla Bean Round Sammie along with a Strawberry Cream Swirl Bar. The new products are available at Sprouts and Natural Grocer locations nationwide.

 

Saffron Road

Global cuisine brand Saffron Road has introduced two new better-for-you, Chinese-inspired frozen entrees: plant-based General Tso’s and Kung Pao Chicken. The former features cauliflower and chickpeas dumpling with a tangy sauce, white rice, bok choy, and red bell peppers. The latter is made with antibiotic-free chicken, bell peppers, roasted peanuts and a Szechuan peppercorn-based sauce.

Blue Circle

Sustainably-sourced seafood company Blue Circle announced it will debut its new Salmon sausages product. The sausages contain garlic, onion and paprika and utilize all parts of the salmon to avoid any waste. Blue Circle products are available at select retailers including HyVee, Target, HEB and Fresh Thyme Market.

Renewal Mill x Miyokos

Upcycled food brand Renewal Mill and plant-based dairy company Miyoko’s Creamery teamed up to bake a new vegan, gluten-free soft-baked Salted Peanut Butter Cookie using Miyoko’s “end of run butter” that was previously going to waste. The single-serve cookies will rollout in April and are available for preorder for $2.99 per cookie or $35 for a 12-pack.

Bubbies

Mochi brand Bubbies is unveiling a plant-based line of its classic flavors made with oat milk ice cream and adding a new Cookies and Cream flavor to its conventional lineup. The vegan ice creams are wrapped in gluten-free mochi and available in flavors including Red, Ripe Strawberry, Rich Chocolate and Alphonso Mango.

Cleveland Kitchen

Fermented food brand Cleveland Kitchen is expanding its portfolio with a new Mild Kimchi product as well as introducing a lightly-fermented pickle line which includes Bread & ButtaChips, King Kosher Whole Cukes and Dilly Garlic flavors in chips and spear formats. The Mild Kimchi is an “everyday” take on the brand’s Classic line.

RIND

Fruit chip maker RIND has launched a new line of Thin-Cut Fruit Chips in Apple, Kiwi and Orange varieties. In addition to the new format, RIND will also introduce a flavored line of Orange chips in Chili Lime, Sweet Salted Lime and Dark Chocolate Sea Salt later this year. RIND snacks are available at retailers nationwide including Meijer, CVS, Giant Eagle and Raley’s.
