The Lovely Candy Company Is Spreading the Love(ly)

CHICAGO, Oct. 17, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The holidays are a time of sharing love, sometimes by the gifting or enjoying of sweets. The experts at The Lovely Candy Company are helping to spread the “Love-ly” and mark the arrival of the season with their line of delicious Consciously Crafted® candies – both at retail and online. Known for their premium quality confections which are free of high fructose corn syrup, gluten, and artificial colors and flavors, Lovely is introducing two innovative products to their rapidly growing line - Honey Gummy Bears™ and Dark Chocolate Honey Patties.  

The new Honey Gummies are the first gummy candy that lists honey as its primary ingredient. In addition, they contain no gelatin and are peanut free. The gummies are available in assorted fruit and sour berry flavors and come in six ounce packages that retail for $4.99.  

For the dark chocolate lover this holiday, Lovely is releasing a line of Dark Chocolate Honey Patties which include only three ingredients: honey, cacao and a little bit of flavor. They come in three mouthwatering options including Original, Mint and Raspberry and are each made with 99% cacao, sweetened only with honey. They do not contain any dairy, artificial ingredients or gluten, and they are peanut free. The Patties are available in 4.5 ounce packages and retail for $5.99.

“We are excited to help spread the ‘Love’ this holiday season with these delicious confections,” said Mike Nakamura, President of Lovely Candy. “Above all else, we are a company dedicated to our mission of creating consciously crafted candy and snacks for the growing number of consumers who have food sensitivities, allergies or are ingredient-minded.”  

Both products will join the expanding portfolio of Lovely, which include fan favorites of their premium Soft Caramels, Hula Chews™, Juicy Chews™ Fruit Chews, Gluten Free Licorice and Gluten Free Pretzel Balls.    

Many of Lovely Candy’s premium collection can be found at select Walgreens, Whole Foods, T.J. Maxx, as well as other retailers. They are also available on Amazon.
