Big news! We’re so thrilled to let you all know that our Milk Chocolate Sun Cups, Dark Chocolate Sun Cups, Milk Chocolate Caramel Cups, and Dark Chocolate Mint Cups have all received the Non-GMO Project Verification. Seriously, this is huge news for us and something we’re very proud to provide to all you Sun Cups snackers out there.

So, let’s put that into English for ya, long story short, the “Non-GMO Project Verified” seal indicates and assures that Sun Cups have been produced according to consensus-based best practices for GMO avoidance.

So what exactly are GMOs? Let’s ask the experts. According to the Non-GMO Project, “GMOs, or ‘genetically modified organisms,’ are plants or animals created through the gene splicing techniques of biotechnology… a growing body of evidence connects GMOs with health problems, environmental damage and violation of farmers’ and consumers’ rights.”

To learn more about the Non-GMO Project and verification process, please visit www.nongmoproject.org.

Happy (safe) snacking!

Sun Cups is taking over NYC!

And by takeover, we mean visit, and by visit we mean, a tour of sorts. A Whole Foods sample tour! The best kind if you ask us, because what kind of person wouldn’t like free (gluten & nut free!) chocolate demos in your local favorite Whole Foods?

We kicked off the NYC tour in Chelsea and the Upper West Side and are making our way all over the island. Check out the below list to see where we’ll be demoing a new product and when. We’ll be at all locations from 11am – 4pm, aka “snack time.”

• Wednesday, April 24 / Whole Foods Columbus Circle / 10 Columbus Circle
• Thursday, April 25 / Whole Foods Tribeca / 270 Greenwich Street
• Friday, April 26 / Whole Foods Union Square / 4 Union Square East
• Sunday, April 28 Whole Foods Bowery / 95 E Houston Street

So stop on by so you can be part of the beginning, the start, the launch, the day that will go down infamy and you can say “I was there.”

Ok, maybe not. But, again, nut & gluten-free chocolate, need we say more.

Looking forward to feeding some of you, and as always, happy snacking!

So every month, the (lucky) people of Kona Kase put together an assortment of delicious edible products for their subscribers to discover. Then they package it in an awesome box and send them all out. What’s not to like?

We were thrilled to meet the Kona Kase team at Expo West and even more thrilled that they decided to include Sun Cups in their March Kase! This month’s Kase also features many awesome brands like Clif and Earnest Eats to name a couple. What great company to keep!

You can find em’ here http://www.konakase.com/. And (humble brag) while you’re there, check out their nice post on Sun Cups, http://konalife.konakase.com/?p=321. It includes how our gluten and nut-free chocolate can benefit athletes and some of our favorite spots around Boulder.

See you out on the trails!

Couple helpful hints from the site, “If you aren’t familiar with a particular category or don’t have a “favorite,” skip it. However, you must answer at least 25 questions in the survey overall for your ballot to be counted.” Also, most importantly, “in order for your ballot to be counted, please navigate to the last page of the survey!  You do not need to answer every question, but must reach the last page.”

You know the drill, around this time of year you’re frantically looking for that cheapo Easter basket. Then, you head to the store and fill it with some unsavory, and unhealthy, options at best. Let’s change that stale routine this year … enter, Sun Cups! New England Grandparents, the bloggers behind Grandparentsplus2 already stocked with Sun Cups for this Easter, carefully picking their treats for a Grandson allergic to nuts. Thanks to them for this delicious review! On top of that, they’re making their own beautiful baskets. It sounds like they have some pretty lucky grand kids!

Being nut or gluten-free may be a choice for some, but for others it’s not. That’s why Sun Cups are here! We want everyone to be able to enjoy their favorite foods, without fear. It’s believed that for some, gluten free diets can help with a list of ailments, from migraines, stomach aches, back pain, and depression. So for those who want to limit their gluten intake, Sun Cups are a great gluten free (and nut free!) snack option with four delicious flavors including Dark Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, Dark Chocolate Mint and Milk Chocolate Caramel. See, you don’t have to give up taste for health! It’s important to keep in mind that some companies make you choose, and charge you more, Time warns about that here. However, here at Sun Cups, we’re striving to keep the cost of your favorite chocolate happy for your taste buds, and your wallet!

“The taste was just nice, clean and natural. Semi sweet dark chocolate shell and a creamy, floral slightly roasted flavor provided by the sunflower seed butter. It is a really nice substitute for peanut butter and does not taste quite as heavy.”
