Nassau Candy, a manufacturer of specialty and private label confections, is expanding its gift options with the additions of Candy Charcuterie Trays and Candy Filled Paint Cans at the 2025 Sweets & Snacks Expo.

“A major part of any celebration is candy and snacks,” said Dana Rodio, director of marketing and brand strategy at Nassau Candy. “Our new Candy Charcuterie Trays and Candy Filled Paint Cans bring the festivities while making celebrating simple. Bold packaging designs means no need for gift wrap, while a readymade candy tray and unique paint can container offer a professional presentation every time.”

The charcuterie tray line simplifies the candy charcuterie platter with a preformed sectioned tray featuring an assortment of popular gummies, candies, nuts and chocolate.  All trays come in colorful packaging which will appeal to customers looking for gifting options.

  • Sweet & Salty: An assortment of chocolate and nut mixes featuring Nassau Candy’s Mini Milk Chocolatey Pretzels, Rainbow Snack Mix, Milk Chocolate Nonpareils, Milk Chocolate Covered Peanuts, Party Snack Mix, Sea Salt Sensation Mix, Milk Chocolate Covered Cookie Dough and Milk Chocolate Pretzel Poppers;
