Blue Diamond Unveils New Flavored Mixed Nut Blend: Almonds and More; Maya Erwin Shares

Blue Diamond continues to innovate the snack aisle with the introduction of Almonds and More. The new product line fuses Blue Diamond’s signature flavors with popular mixed nut blends, a first for the mixed nuts category.

“We’ve found that nearly half of consumers consider flavor to be the most important factor when purchasing snacks, but there was a lack of flavor choice in the mixed nuts category,” said Maya Erwin, Vice President of Marketing and Innovation, in a recent press release. “No one knows flavors like Blue Diamond, so we created Almonds and More to meet consumers’ appetite for premium and protein-packed flavor options so they can get the most from their favorite snack nuts.”

Almonds and More is the brand’s first venture into the mixed nuts category and will be available in three signature flavors, each with over 50 percent of almonds complimented with a blend of cashews and pistachios.

The flavors include:

• Blue Diamond Honey Roasted Almonds and More offers the irresistible sweetness of a rich layer of honey toasted to golden perfection, making for a deliciously sweet and subtly toasted snack
• Blue Diamond Roasted Sea Salt Almonds and More packs the perfect harmony of flavor and crunch, as the roasted nuttiness is balanced out by a crisp touch of sea salt
• Blue Diamond Smokehouse Almonds and More embraces the bold, smoky, and signature Blue Diamond flavor with rich and savory notes that pair effortlessly with the mixed nut blend

Almonds and More are now hitting all Kroger shelves nationwide in 14 oz cans and will become available at major retailers nationwide in early 2025. Blue Diamond is dedicated to creating new and innovative flavors and products, the release went on to note.
