Brownie Brittle

Snacking without the guilt!

By Sponsored Content April 3, 2014
Rich, gooey and decadent brownies are a favorite of moms and kids alike. They’re perfectly paired with ice cream, at snack time, for birthday parties and even in lunch pails. Whether you opt for a caramel and sea salt brownie, mint, swirl or many of the other combinations, brownies are an indulgence. Unfortunately, a traditional brownie packs a whopping number of calories, fat and sugar. 

A wildly successful company in Florida is helping satisfy our brownie cravings with their Brownie Brittle™ snacks, a low-calorie alternative full of chocolate flavor but without the extreme guilt of eating a regular brownie.

Sheila G. Mains, CEO of Brownie Brittle, LLC, created her award-winning Brownie Brittle years ago after starting her brownie business in 1991. Mains always loved to snack on the crispy baked edges of the brownie sheet trays in her commercial bakery and she set out to create the most perfect snack.  Lucky for us she did.

Brownie Brittle hit store shelves in a big way in January 2011 with redesigned packaging.  Today you’ll find four fabulous flavors on store shelves across America:  Chocolate Chip, Toffee Crunch, Salted Caramel and Mint Chocolate Chip.  

They’re literally the thin, crispy edges of a gourmet brownie with only 120 calories per serving and 4 grams of fat. Brownie Brittle is perfect for dunking in milk, crumbled on ice cream or used to make an ice cream sandwich or honestly, just straight out of the bag. In fact, it’s quite possibly one of the hottest snacks on the market today.

Brownie Brittle has grown their social media following to over 250,000 raving Facebook fans who share their love for this unique snack using poems, funny photos of themselves enjoying Brownie Brittle and even a special manicure one fan created to commemorate her love of the crunchy snack.

Every day Brownie Brittle receives love letters from their fan base with suggestions for new flavor combinations and recipe ideas like yogurt parfaits with fruit and Brownie Brittle layers in between. 

Many parents love Fitness Magazine award-winning snack.  Brownie Brittle is a healthier choice for an after-school snack and has even been referred to by Weight Watchers® as the “health-conscious chocoholics dream come true…at only 3 PointsPlus®….”

Each flavor is available in most stores in a 4 oz. bag and club stores offer a 1 lb. bag. More retailers will be offering the 1 oz. and 2 oz. single serving pouches in the very near future as well. The single serving pouches are perfect for lunches (and portion control). The bags have recently undergone a redesign and the shimmery new look will debut this spring.

Brownie Brittle is available at tens of thousands of retailers Nationwide including Costco, Safeway, Kroger, Bed, Bath and Beyond and more.
