The news media's ongoing coverage of CBD is further driving demand for products with hemp oil and natural, hemp-based CBD in them. This is an absolutely perfect time for aNew Chocolate to bring the world's first CBD-rich hemp oil-infused chocolate bars to market."
Research indicates that domestic organic food sales are growing in popularity and that through 2018, the U.S. chocolate industry will reach estimated sales of $19.3 billion with innovations in dark and milk chocolate propelling the growth.
"aNew is a play on words," continues Sides. "It signifies both a resurgence as well as a first-of-its-kind product. aNew Chocolate's first release is an organic, vegan dark chocolate bar that includes goji berries and is infused with natural CBD-rich hemp oil. This is a delicious treat that is also a healthier snack option for people of all ages. Additional information and products will be made available very soon."
