Nestle purchases certified, sustainable cocoa for Easter Collection

Nestlé Confections & Snacks has announced the purchase of certified, sustainable cocoa equal to the amount needed to produce the entire Easter chocolate collection for 2015. In a recent survey, nearly 80% of consumers said that they would prefer to purchase chocolate products made with sustainable cocoa if they were easy to find and didn’t cost more. The Easter collection is their next step toward its goal of making all its US produced chocolate products with sustainable cocoa from the their Cocoa Plan.

New Easter products this year include the Crunch Creamy Caramel NestEggs and Crunch Snoopy Bunny, both part of a new partnership with Charles Schulz’s Peanuts franchise. The Crunch Easter eggs filled with caramel and peanut butter are yummy! :) Happy Easter Everyone!
