Health & CPG Case Study
Fudge Fuel

Proving the Guilt-Free Dream.

How Street Poller Media used blind taste tests to capture genuine shock at Fudge Fuel's flavor profile, driving 15,000+ new sales.

The Challenge.

"Healthy" snacks often suffer from a negative taste perception. Fudge Fuel needed to prove that their "guilt-free" treats tasted exactly like traditional candy.

  • Consumer disbelief in "healthy" flavor claims
  • Need to stand out in a hyper-competitive snack market
  • High creative fatigue on static and studio ads
