In preparation for Easter 2010, the fluffy, long-eared, basket-bearing Easter Bunny is on the hunt for healthier Easter treats. He called upon Surf Sweets, a leading brand of delicious natural and organic gummy candies and jelly beans, to create a snack-size pack of its organically sweetened and corn syrup-free Jelly Beans.

“Where most candy is sweetened with corn syrup and refined sugar, Surf Sweets candies are not,” says Bert Cohen, President and Founder of TruSweets, LLC, a socially responsible company dedicated to building delicious, sweet snack brands like Surf Sweets that are better for our families and our planet. “They’re sweetened with organic cane juice and real organic fruit juice instead of corn syrup, and they’re free of artificial colors, flavors and GMOs,” he adds.

“It just makes good sense for us to launch our new snack-size packs of Organic Jelly Beans in time for Easter,” says Cohen. “So we were hoppy to meet the Easter Bunny’s demand, and we took it one step further by making our snack-size packs of Organic Jelly Beans available all year round,” he adds.

Surf Sweets Candy can be found at Raisin Rack in Westerville and at Whole Foods - with 2 locations in the Columbus area.
