Tony’s Chocolonely, the impact-led chocolate company on a mission to end exploitation in the cocoa industry, has announced a significant evolution of its product portfolio with the launch of a new 'Filled' range.

This release marks the brand's third major flavour innovation in the past year, following the successful rollouts of Salted Caramel and Marshmallow variants.

Green River Distilling Co. has announced a major addition to its core portfolio with the launch of Green River Wheated Full Proof Bourbon. The launch leverages the recipe that was recently honoured as "Best Overall Bourbon" at the 2025 New York World Spirits Competition.

Developed in partnership with Trilliant Food & Nutrition, LLC, a leading U.S. coffee manufacturer, the collection translates the chain's signature shop flavours—including fan favourites like Golden Eagle® and Annihilator®—into retail-ready formats.

The move signals the brand's strategic entry into the high-frequency coffee adjunct category, extending its reach beyond core fluid milk and ice cream staples into the morning consumption occasion.

By utilising a cottage cheese base for the crust, the brand claims to achieve a crisp texture often lacking in cauliflower or alternative-flour bases, while delivering up to 23 grams of protein per serving.

The new lineup spans the entire "heat-o-meter," ranging from Zero Heat to Hot, and includes two high-profile retailer exclusives designed to drive footfall at Walmart and Kroger.

REIGN Total Body Fuel, the performance energy brand created by Monster Energy, has announced the expansion of its flavour portfolio with the launch of Watermelon Sour Gummy.
