Blue Diamond introduces honey to the mix

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Blue Diamond Growers, an almond processing and marketing company, last week announced a new line of honey-flavored products across the Snack Almonds, Nut Thins and Almond Breeze brands. The line combines the sweetness of honey with different flavors to create a satisfying snack, the company said.



The new products include:

• Snack Almonds in Honey Roasted, Honey Roasted Vanilla, Honey Roasted Cinnamon and Honey Roasted Chipotle flavors;


• Blue Diamond's Honey Cinnamon and Honey Mustard Nut Thins; and


• Almond Breeze Almond Milk in two flavors, Hint of Honey and Honey Vanilla, both of which are available in refrigerated and shelf stable cartons.

“Honey is growing in popularity as a great natural alternative to sugar,” said Al Greenlee, director of marketing at Blue Diamond Growers. “Honey’s sweet, yet understated flavor adds complexity to any meal or snack. We’ve incorporated honey flavors into everything from Snack Almonds to Almond Breeze Almond Milk.”
