Wolfgang Candy Company�s EVES� � Tempting, Decadent Chocolate Topped Truffle Cookies � Now Available Nationwide
Company Debuts Sassy, Fun EVES� Website
York, PA - (May 11, 2010) - Wolfgang Candy Company announces the nationwide availability of its newest chocolate-topped premium truffle cookies, EVES�, after a successful soft launch in select markets of these tempting, decadent cookies.
Along with its EVES� nationwide launch, Wolfgang Candy debuts a sassy and fun Website, www.wolfgangcandy-EVES.com, featuring a tongue-in-cheek downloadable The Etiquette of Entertaining, Abridged Version.
EVES� begin with an elegant cookie base that the Wolfgang master chocolatiers then embellish with their rich, European-style chocolate toppings.
The melt-in-your-mouth butter cookie gets a silky, milk chocolate top layer. The crisp vanilla cookie features one of two premium toppings: either caramel-filled creamy milk chocolate truffle, or raspberry-filled dark chocolate truffle.
�EVES� are not your kids� cookies,� says Mike Schmid, Wolfgang Candy Managing Partner -- Marketing. �These are grown-up cookies that you�ll want to put on the top shelf, and savor as an affordable luxury.�
Perfect as an after-dinner treat with coffee, as a thoughtful hostess gift, or even as a satisfying, personal indulgence after a busy day, Wolfgang�s EVES� take the premium cookie category to a new level of quality and affordability.
Schmid says, �As the nationwide rollout continues, the EVES� Website will include new features, offering a fun, interactive experience for consumers and cookie lovers.� Currently, The Etiquette of Entertaining, Abridged Version is a fun take-away for consumers, and hopefully everyone will enjoy a chuckle from some of the quirky advice offered within this �Etiquette� handbook�, added Schmid.
One of the first stores to stock EVES� cookies was Ingles Markets, a 200-store supermarket operation in the southeast U.S. with $2 billion in annual sales.
Wayne Miller, grocery buyer for Ingles Markets, says, �Wolfgang EVES� cookies, a natural extension of our premium cookie category, offer customers a unique experience and taste, combining two American favorites: cookies and rich, creamy chocolate.�
According to Steve Schmid, Wolfgang Candy Managing Partner � Sales, �Ingles Markets is known for its savvy and skill in selecting and promoting new products to entice consumers. We were delighted to learn that EVES� pleased their shoppers� sophisticated palates with these rich, sumptuous cookies covered with decadent chocolate toppings.�
