GoodSAM Foods announces new offering: a line of organic, raw cane sugar chocolate bars, chocolate-covered nuts, and fruit available now on the GoodSAM website, Amazon, and select retailers including Sprouts and upcoming availability at Fresh Thyme.

DARIEN, Conn., Sept. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- GoodSAM Foods, a healthy food and beverage brand known for its commitment to sustainability and regenerative agriculture, announced today the launch of its latest indulgent offerings: a new line of organic, raw cane sugar chocolate bars, chocolate-covered nuts, and fruit. These exciting additions to the GoodSAM portfolio are now available on the GoodSAM website, Amazon, and select retailers including Sprouts and upcoming availability at Fresh Thyme.

GoodSAM Foods announces newest addition to a portfolio of various nuts, coffee, and Fruit Chips. The NEW line of organic, raw cane sugar chocolate bars, chocolate-covered nuts, and fruit are all non-GMO certified, gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free, and vegan certified.

GoodSAM's new, decadent dark chocolates are crafted from regeneratively farmed, organic cacao beans and cane sugar grown alongside one another in Ghana. Satisfying more than just a sweet tooth, the cacao used in GoodSAM's chocolates is also directly traded and manufactured locally in Ghana to help fuel the local economy and create job opportunities in farmer communities. Each chocolate is part of a fully traceable supply chain that emphasizes close relationships and rigorous quality checks, ensuring fairness and exceptional flavor. In line with GoodSAM's mission to enhance sustainability and support regenerative farming, the company has transitioned from allulose to organic raw cane sugar. This change not only aligns with overall environmental goals but also further reduces GoodSAM's impact.

"At GoodSAM our mission is always to innovate new, delicious products that make sustainability and regeneratively sourced products more accessible to the average consumer while creating relationships that truly benefit our farmers. With our new chocolates, farmers are paid more than a 10 percent fairtrade markup as a means to reduce poverty," said Heather K. Terry, founder & CEO of GoodSAM. "By revamping our chocolate line, we are showing that we are uncomfortable with complacency and if we find a new, better way to create sustainable snacks we will pursue it. Chocolate is a creature comfort and this new line is making the planet a little more comfortable, too."

Chocolate products that are more than just a sweet treat, all products in GoodSAM's new chocolate portfolio are organic, non-GMO certified, gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free, vegan certified, and packaged in 100% compostable packaging. Products include:

  • Dark Chocolate Bars (MSRP $5.99, 2.8 oz bar) Elevate your chocolate experience with three delectable varieties:
  • Hazelnut 70% Dark Chocolate: A luxurious blend of rich dark chocolate and crunchy roasted hazelnuts.
  • Sea Salt & Nibs 70% Dark Chocolate: A delightful sweet and salty combination of smooth dark chocolate, sea salt, and crispy cocoa nibs.
  • 80% Dark Chocolate: A bold and creamy bar for true chocolate enthusiasts.
  • Chocolate Covered Macadamia Nuts (MSRP $6.99, 3.5 oz) Crunchy roasted macadamia nuts enveloped in 70% dark chocolate, sourced from the lush foothills of Mount Kenya.
  • Chocolate Dipped Mango (MSRP $6.99, 3.5 oz) Succulent mango pieces dipped in rich dark chocolate made from regeneratively farmed cacao and raw cane sugar.

GoodSAM's new chocolate line represents a significant departure from industry norms. Unlike many brands that mix Fair Trade and non-Fair Trade cacao, our chocolates are made exclusively with Fair & Direct Trade cacao. This ensures that every bar is crafted from cacao sourced from farmers and cooperatives dedicated to agroforestry practices that sustain and enrich ecosystems. Additionally, GoodSAM is committed to supporting local cacao farming communities by working closely with them to address specific needs and launch initiatives that drive positive, lasting impact.

GoodSAM's products are available on GoodSAMFoods.com, Amazon, Thrive Market, and select retailers, including Whole Foods, Sprouts, Erewhon & Fresh Thyme, and include various nuts, coffee, and the new Crispy, Crunchy Fruit Chips. All products in the GoodSAM line are direct trade, non-GMO, gluten-free, vegan and are grown using regenerative farming techniques, preserving indigenous and smallholder farmer wisdom.
