The Supplant Company Debuts Inclusions Portfolio, Beginning with Supplanttm Chocolate Chips, And Revamps Chocolate Bar In Anticipation Of Retail Launch

Today, The Supplant Company announced the introduction of premium inclusions made with the company's flagship ingredient, Supplanttm sugars from fiber, beginning with Supplanttm Chocolate Chips.

The Supplant Company uses the fiber-rich parts of crops that don't typically make their way into food to create Supplanttm sugars from fiber, which cooks, bakes, and caramelizes like traditional sugar. The product has fewer calories than cane sugar, a low glycemic response, and the benefits of a prebiotic.

The Supplanttm Chocolate Chips contain no refined cane sugar and feature Supplanttm sugars from fiber. This new extension of The Supplant Company's offering continues to gear towards commercial partners for direct wholesale purchase, including food service and CPG brands, with various applications including use in bakery, frozen dairy and non-dairy products.

"As we evolve our offering to better serve our commercial partners, we found that producing and distributing premium confectionery inclusions such as chocolate chips created with Supplanttm sugars from fiber grows our footprint and impact," said Dr. Tom Simmons, founder and CEO of The Supplant Company. "Expanding our offering beyond a raw ingredient to inclusions and CPG products furthers our mission to create a whole new category of ?sugars from fiber' and ultimately reduce the demand for cane sugar while providing a solution to agricultural food waste."

In their drive to make a bigger impact and complementing their inclusions debut, The Supplant Company's direct-to-consumer Chocolate Bar offering created in collaboration with Chef Thomas Keller has undergone bold rebranding and reformulation to exclude all cane sugar and is now available for the first time to retail partners.

"The growing reach of our Supplanttm Chocolate Bars is a testament to the product's integrity and allows us to increase its impact on the industry, people and world," said Chef Thomas Keller.

To mark the launch of the Chocolate Chips, and coinciding with the Fancy Food Show on February 6-8, Bouchon Las Vegas will be announcing a limited-edition menu item showcasing the new product made with Supplanttm sugars from fiber for locals and food show attendees.

The new Supplanttm Chocolate Chips and Supplanttm Chocolate Bars can be purchased wholesale by emailing [email protected]. Consumers nationwide can order a taster pack of Supplanttm Chocolate Bars in collaboration with Chef Thomas Keller for $19.99 at http://shop.supplant.com.
