Stivii Announces New Line Of Stevia Sweetened Chocolates

    LOS ANGELES, CA, September 10, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Burbank based Stivii has launched a new premium line of dark chocolates that is sure to attract the most health-conscious and discerning chocolate fans. The company has unveiled five new stevia-sweetened chocolate products on top of their existing line of single-serving sweetener tablets.

Made with only the finest ingredients, including 55% cacao, the chocolates can satisfy any sweet tooth while providing 25% fewer calories than traditional dark chocolate products. The Stivii line of Swiss quality chocolates is dairy and soy free, vegan, high in fiber, and some are made with real fruit pieces instead of juice powders or artificial flavors.

To further support the launch of their Stevia chocolates, Stivii has joined the UTZ Certified Cocoa Program. When you buy UTZ certified coffee, cocoa or tea you are helping build a better future. UTZ Certified stands for sustainable farming with better opportunities for farmers, their families and our planet. The UTZ program enables farmers to yield better harvests, higher income, improved business prospects and can in-turn better care for their children and the environment.

"I am pleased to welcome Stivii to the UTZ Certified cocoa program," said Juliette Caulkins, Emerging Markets Director, UTZ Certified. "With their commitment to the sustainability of cocoa, we can create more opportunities for cocoa producers worldwide to better market their product and improve their livelihoods." More information about the UTZ Certified program can be found at http://www.utzcertified.org.

The future of Stivii includes expanded distribution into additional retail stores and markets. The chocolate line can already be purchased in stores along the West Coast, including all Gelson's Markets. Additional chocolate flavors are also currently in development for an early 2016 unveiling.

About Stivii

Our team is committed to making the world's sweet tooth a little smarter. We provide a healthy and great tasting product line without using sugar or artificial sweeteners. We use Stevia, a zero calorie sweetener, which is naturally extracted from the Stevia plant.

Our goal is to improve the lives of our customers with our Stevia based products, which can lead to a decrease in overall sugar intake. By offering alternatives to sugar based products we hope to contribute to the fight against obesity and diabetes as well. We understand that committing to a healthier lifestyle is sometimes a tough pill to swallow, which is precisely why we do not advise a spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down, rather a spoonful of Stevia instead! (That's actually too sweet, so don't do that either.)
