Stoneridge Orchards Premium Dried Fruit Products Now Available in Smaller Size

Stoneridge Orchards, the dried fruit experts and the consumer brand of Royal Ridge Fruits, is making a variety of its most popular products available in smaller, single serving packages. The three-ounce bags are intended for retailers to merchandise as healthy, on-the-go snack options, say company officials. “These new, smaller packages enable retailers to offer customers something different in convenience – a healthier snack choice made with whole, all-natural dried fruits,” says Bryce Dorsing, senior vice president of family-owned-and-operated Royal Ridge Fruits. “We know that more and more consumers are looking for health-conscious choices, and that includes when they are out on the go. Our new snack-sized bags are perfect for just such occasions.” Company officials describe the grab-and-go options as follows: ·       Montmorency Tart Cherries – The company’s signature dried fruit product, and also its most popular, these tart cherries remain moist when dried and are fragrantly sweet, tart and plump with intense flavor and color. ·       Dark Chocolate Dipped Cherries – Premium 70% dark chocolate lightly coats Montmorency Cherries to satisfy a sweet tooth the all-natural way. ·       Greek Yogurt Dipped Cherries – Montmorency Cherries lightly dipped in smooth, ultra-creamy Greek-style yogurt. These cherries are harvested at the peak of ripeness and then dried for a wholesome snack straight out of the bag. ·       Chili Lime Cherries – Mildly zesty and slightly sweet, these Montmorency Cherries are seasoned with Tajin chili lime for a mild kick, offering a healthier snacking experience unlike any other. Like all Stoneridge Orchards products, these new snack-sized options are made with whole, all-natural fruits, contain no artificial colors, flavors, hydrogenated oils or sulfites, and are Kosher-Dairy Certified, company officials add. The new three-ounce bags are available to order now and will begin shipping to retailers October 15. Each variety will come in its own displayable tray of 12 packages, and the individual bags will have an MSRP of $2.99.
