Sargento’s Sunrise Balanced Breaks curb snack cravings

Sargento is looking to curb those cravings between breakfast and lunch.

The Plymouth, Wis.-based company announced the launch of its new Sunrise Balanced Breaks, which contain such ingredients as walnut oat granola, quinoa clusters and maple pumpkin seeds.

"Mornings can be hectic, and consumers are looking for ways to start their day on track with a morning snack that delivers convenience in a delicious way," Stephanie Meyer, the senior marketing manager of Sargento Foods said. "Sunrise Balanced Breaks offer a unique balance of ingredients, flavors and textures to start your day on the right track."

Created with real, natural cheese that’s paired with flavorful ingredients, the snacks provide 6 to 7 g of protein and 10 to 15% of the daily recommended calcium, the company said.

Sunrise Balanced Breaks are available in four varieties, including:

• Natural Double Cheddar Cheese with vanilla blueberry quinoa clusters and berry-juice infused dried cranberries;


• Colby-Jack Natural Cheese with coconut clusters and seed medley, and dried cranberries;


• Natural Medium Cheddar Cheese, which has raisins and maple pumpkin seeds; and


• Monterey Jack Natural Cheese, with walnut oat granola, dark chocolate and golden raisins.

Consumers can find Sargento’s Sunrise Balanced Breaks in the dairy aisle at major retailers nationwide.
