April 2025’s eco trends showcase a wave of brands embracing sustainable solutions across production, development, and sourcing, driving a greener future. From regeneratively farmed pancake mixes to organic cotton essentials, this collection of trends reflects a collective goal to transform the way we buy and consume.

One contribution comes from Blue Stripes, a brand that offers upcycled cacao products designed to combat the global cocoa crisis. By utilizing whole cacao pods, these nutrient-rich bars offer a healthier alternative to traditional chocolate, packed with fiber, antioxidants, and essential vitamins like magnesium, potassium, and vitamin D. Their ingredients support heart health, immunity, gut health, and overall wellness.

Larger companies like Berry Global Group and Mars have partnered to introduce eco-friendly packaging for popular brands like M&M’s, Skittles, and Starburst. This initiative will transition pantry jars to 100% recycled plastic, excluding the lids, aligning with Mars’ sustainability goals.
