SunRidge Farms Launches Non-GMO,
All-Natural Candy-Coated Chocolate Drops
Pajaro, Cal. – February 22, 2011 – In response to increasing consumer demand for better-foryou candies, SunRidge Farms is expanding its natural candy line to include an industry first – all
natural Milk Chocolate Rainbow Drops. Packed in SunRidge Farms solar powered facility, the
new addition features natural premium quality chocolate with real vanilla in a cane sugar shell.
Rainbow drops come in seven colors each derived from vegetable juice, rather than food dye and
titanium dioxide, which are commonly artificial and potentially carcinogenic.
“From our simple beginnings in 1982 in our family garage, our mission has been to offer people
great-tasting quality foods, including snacks and confections with consumer health and the health
of the environment foremost in mind,” said Morty Cohen, founder and president of SunRidge
Farms. “We are delighted to introduce a new product that provides an all natural approach to a
long-time family favorite.”
Sweetened the way nature intended with pure cane sugar and vanilla, Rainbow Drops are NonGMO, and are free of preservatives, hydrogenated oils, artificial ingredients and artificial
colorings.
“Commitment to quality means we include only the finest ingredients in our Rainbow Drops,”
said Mark Devencenzi, National Sales Director. “We’ve forged relationships with both small and
large sustainably minded farms over the past thirty years, and our customers can feel good
about the fact that they’re supporting farmers and the environment when they purchase
SunRidge Farms’ products.”
SunRidge Farms offers a 100 percent satisfaction guarantee on all products, including Rainbow
Drops. If a customer is not pleased with the product for any reason, he or she can mail in the
empty bag and receive a full replacement of that or another SunRidge Farms’ product.
Rainbow Drops are offered in bulk for a suggested MSRP of $6.99 a lb, prepackaged bags for a
suggested MSRP of $3.99 for a 7 oz. bag and a suggested MSRP of .99¢ for 1 oz. bag. They will
be available in retail outlets throughout the United States by late spring.
