Calico Cottage to Debut New Fudge Flavor at Winter Fancy Food Show

AMITYVILLE, N.Y. - Jan. 19, 2018 - PRLog -- Calico Cottage, Inc., the creator and market leader of the in-store, small-space fudge retailing program, announced they will reveal their newest fudge flavor at the Winter Fancy Food Show. The annual show will take place this year from January 21 through January 23 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, CA.

At the show, Calico Cottage will conduct live fudge-making demonstrations at Booth #1351. Retailers are encouraged to visit the booth to see how easy it is to make their own fresh fudge from Calico's fudge mix ingredients, and how profitable it can be to sell fudge under the retailer's own brand name.

"Today's shoppers are craving an exciting experience when they step into a store," said Mark Wurzel, President & CEO of Calico Cottage, Inc. "Having fresh fudge available has been shown to drive more foot traffic at retail locations, which leads to a surge in sales."

An innovator of more than 300 fudge recipes, Calico Cottage will introduce its newest fudge flavor at the Winter Fancy Food Show: Pecan Caramel Cluster, a flavor inspired by the ever-popular Demet's® Turtles® candies. Attendees of the show will be privy to taste this newest flavor, along with Calico's other classic and best-selling fudge varieties.

"Our extensive library of recipes allows our retailers to offer traditional favorites, as well as new, specialty fudge flavors," said Wurzel. "The variety entices consumers to check back often to see what's new."

Hosted annually by the Specialty Food Association, the Winter Fancy Food Show draws tens of thousands of industry professionals, and serves as the premiere showcase for industry innovation. This year's show will feature more than 80,000 products and 1,400 exhibitors from around the world.
