Ridgefield, WA – (May 7, 2024) Tongue & Cheek®, a company that offers consumers an easier way to enjoy the cleansing and soothing effects of aloe, will debut their first product ‘Peppy Mint’ Mouth Melts at the 2024 Summer Fancy Food Show this June. Attendees can find the Tongue & Cheek® booth in Hall 1D of the Debut District area, located in the Incubator Village. They will be exhibiting with the Oregon State University Food Innovation Center, which is where the recipe for Tongue & Cheek® Mouth Melts was originally developed.
Founded by 28-year-old Nicole Phillips, Tongue & Cheek was born from an idea that struck her while she was attending Oregon State University in 2018. Fast forward to now, the company is launching their first product ‘Peppy Mint’ Mouth Melts. Made with aloe vera and premium peppermint, Mouth Melts are oral dissolving strips that provide exceptional cleansing and refreshment for mouths on-the-go.
“We are beyond excited to showcase our ‘Peppy Mint’ Mouth Melts at the Fancy Food Show this summer!” said founder, Nicole Phillips. I think people will really enjoy the way our Mouth Melts combine aloe and peppermint to cleanse and refresh the mouth. My favorite thing about our product is how convenient and effective it is… You don’t have to chew it like gum or traditional mints; all you have to do is let it dissolve and you're good to go (like actually GOOD to go)!”
"The Summer Fancy Food Show is the premier product discovery event for the specialty food industry, and this year’s event puts even greater emphasis on what’s new and innovative in food and beverage,” said Bill Lynch, president, Specialty Food Association. “We’re thrilled that Tongue & Cheek® will be among the exciting makers sharing their delicious, high-quality products with Show attendees.”
