Why is chocolate expensive?

Image
  If you count the changing seasons by the stock of holiday chocolates in your grocery store's seasonal aisle, you might be surprised by another significant change that comes along with the colorful packaging. Chocolate, like many other foods, is about to become more expensive. While inflation and ongoing supply chain issues have caused  wholesale chocolate & retail  prices to rise in 2022, the reason for this increase is much larger and may be long-term. Chocolate companies have faced numerous challenges in recent years. According to the Wall Street Journal, the price of cocoa beans fell in 2021, which was good for candy makers. However, these companies have recently had difficulty sourcing some of the raw ingredients required to make chocolate at the price consumers have grown accustomed to. Chocolate is typically made of cocoa beans, cocoa butter, milk, and sugar (plus an emulsifier like soy lecithin), according to Read Cacao, but half of those ingredients are cur...

Things You Didn't Know About Big League Chew

Image
  1. It's partially responsible for breaking a Guinness World Record Back in 2014, 721 people came together at the Cal Ripken Babe Ruth League World Series and blew some very coordinated bubbles to win the world record for Most People Blowing Bubble Gum Simultaneously. The previous title achieved with 544 people was set June 6th, 2013 by the Lester B. Pearson School in Aurora, Ontario, Canada. Yes, we beat the Canadians! 2. A real-life ball player invented the stuff. Inspired by the game he loved and the players around him, Portland Mavericks ball player Rob Nelson first came up with the idea for Big League Chew in the summer of 1977. Almost 40 years later, Nelson continues to stand behind his creation and maintains full rights and creative control over the product. And you better bet that come Halloween, his door is the best one to knock on. 3. It wasn't always pink! Nelson first developed root beer- and maple extract-flavored Big League Chew so that it would be brown and tru...

HOW MANY PEOPLE SAY THEY ARE GLUTEN-FREE?

Image
  What does gluten-free really even mean these days? It seems like everyone claims to be gluten-free, but half of them aren’t even sure what that includes. Even my own sister loosely follows the gluten-free life, but can’t define what exactly she can and cannot eat (a classic youngest sibling move). After a quick dip into the worldwide web, I came to discover that gluten-free is the avoidance of wheat, barley, or rye from the diet. Whether it be Celiac Disease (an autoimmune disorder) or a personal health choice, over 30% of Americans actively avoid gluten in their diet. That’s over 98 million people! For the 70% of those who consume gluten without any consequences, all candy is on the table when your sweet tooth comes calling. But what happens to those who have the same cravings but cannot cure them with the candy that they love? Fear not, some of the biggest candy companies in the world have made it their mission to give gluten-free peeps exactly what they need. From chocolate a...

7 fun facts about bubble gum

Image
  Pop! Have you ever tried to blow the ultimate bubble with your gum? It isn’t always easy. But it is always fun! February 5th is Bubble Gum Day. Yet another reason to pop some of that pink sweet stuff into your mouth and get chewing. While you chew away, let Mr Orlando share this bonanza of bubble gum facts with you.     Bubble gum was invented in 1928 by a man named Walter Diemer. He worked at a chewing gum factory (as an accountant!) and was experimenting with all kinds of gum recipes. One day, Walter came up with a formula that wasn’t as sticky as regular gum. It was also super stretchy. This meant you could blow bubbles with it. Unfortunately for Walter, he lost the recipe and had to start experimenting all over again. But after four long months, he figured out the recipe once more. And bubble gum was here to stay!     So why pink? The fact is that when Walter Diemer was coming up with a new type of gum, pink food colouring was the only colour available. S...

Confectionery products should help consumers maximize personal relationships

Image
Nearly 60 percent of consumers are worried about COVID-19’s impact on loved ones, FMCG Gurus finds.   As the COVID-19 pandemic has passed its peak in many countries and consumers embrace the concept of the “new normal,” they are re-evaluating what is important to them in life.  Consumers are increasingly feeling they did not spend as much time with loved ones as they would have liked. They have reflected on this at the peak of the pandemic, along with the recognition that certain demographics are vulnerable to serious complications from the virus. As such, with consumers being allowed to see loved ones again, they will seek out products that help maximize personal relationships. Prior to the pandemic, consumer lifestyles were increasingly governed by time-scarcity, with consumers often feeling they did not have a good life balance. However, disruption to daily life because of COVID-19 has resulted in consumers reflecting on this.  For instance, 59 percent of 23,000 consum...
