Quest Nutrition Launches High-Protein Chocolate Candy - Cravings Peanut Butter Cups

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Quest Nutrition, the Southern California-based functional foods company, announced this morning the launch of another game-changing product Quest Cravings Peanut Butter Cups! The all-new delicious-tasting, high-protein chocolate candy contains 20 grams of high quality protein per serving, with only 3 grams of active carbs and no sugar added! The protein-infused chocolate confection is made with high quality, junk-free ingredients. Just in time for the upcoming Holiday season, Quest Cravings is candy that is actually good for you!

These protein-rich Peanut Butter Cups are made with non-Dutch processed 100% chocolate rich in amino acids, containing no soy, no trans fats and absolutely zero sugar added. Quest Cravings Peanut Butter Cups taste like delicious candy and have the nutritional profile of real, healthy food.

The Quest Cravings rich, chocolaty confections have as much protein as 5 ounces of ground beef!

Available TODAY exclusively online, Quest Nutrition's Cravings Peanut Butter Cups retail for $27.99 for a box of 12 packages, with 2 cups per package.

In September, the makers of this revolutionary line of high-protein chocolate candy, exclusively released the Cravings line to their Facebook fans, causing the protein-infused functional snacks to sell out in record time!

"People love to eat. It's fun. It's satisfying. It's social. But much of what we love to eat is terrible for us," said Quest Nutrition President Tom Bilyeu. "That's why we worked so hard to develop Quest Cravings Peanut Butter Cups. With Cravings, people no longer have to choose between delicious and healthy!"

Entering the nutrition market just two years ago, Marina Del Rey-based Quest Nutrition experienced exponential growth with Quest Protein Bars, its popular line of delicious, high-protein, high-fiber, low-carb bars. An online following of over 200,000 Facebook fans resulted and demand has driven over 5,500 retail stores, across the U.S., including GNC and The Vitamin Shoppe, to carry Quest Bars.
