NEW! Divine Filled Chocolates are great-tasting, velvety milk chocolate pieces with creamy centers of either rich caramel or smooth peanut butter cream. Each single-serve package contains not one, but three satisfying pieces of Divine Filled Chocolates for only 130 calories! These new mouth-watering chocolates will be sure to fill your desire for sumptuous chocolate taste without the guilt.

"SKINNY COW Candy has enjoyed great success serving up delicious treats, in satisfying portions, for very skinny calories," said Tricia Bowles, SKINNY COW Candy spokesperson.   "On the heels of the overwhelmingly positive response to the launches of SKINNY COW Candy Dreamy Clusters and Heavenly Crisps in 2011, we wanted to continue to offer chocolate lovers even more delectable varieties, so we created new SKINNY COW Divine Filled Chocolates!"

American Chocolate Week & Tasty Tidbits About Cocoa
American Chocolate Week began about 25 years ago with the support of the Members of Congress to celebrate America's favorite sweet treat. Chocolate is made from cocoa beans, and those beans are inside a fruit called a cocoa pod, which grows on trees in the tropics. And while we know and love chocolate bars, pieces and drops that are made with milk and sugar today, cocoa began as a drink and has been around for 4,000 years! Many people need little reason to indulge in chocolate any time of year, but we have permission to taste, stir and explore all the more during American Chocolate Week.
