The range consists of Sour Cherries, Mango and Mountain Figs covered in 60% Dark Cocoa, retailing at £3.50 per pack.
The brand said more consumers are looking to make better choices when it comes to snacking, with Google searches for “healthy snacks” up 110%.
Bronagh Clarke, marketing director at Forest Feast said: “We have seen chocolate dipped fruit gain huge traction in the US and so it is only a matter of time before it lands here in the UK in a big way – home-made options are already popping up all over Instagram and Pinterest.
“The trajectory of healthier snacking options has been on the rise for a while, which has seen huge innovation in the category – but nothing like this.
“As the only 100% vegan and gluten-free option out there in dipped chocolate fruit, we’re going to really deliver for shoppers and hopefully in turn grow the category too.”
