God, I love these bars. I have managed to get my son, boss and best friend addicted to them, so I thought I’d move on to all of you next.
First I’ll run through their credentials:
Gluten, wheat and dairy free; no added sugars/syrups; cold pressed not baked (to preserve goodness); 100% vegan… blah blah blah. Basically, this independent British snack company is the beesknees. They have come up with a formula for yummy, sweet, sticky treats that are not full of crap, calories or refined sugar.
Here’s the ingredients list for my favourite, the cocoa orange one (think Terry’s chocolate orange but less sickly): Dates 40% (hence the sweetness), cashews 40% (hit of protein, so they really fill you up), raisins 14%, cocoa 5% and a hint of natural orange oil and chocolate flavouring. That’s it!
I usually have one or two of these about my person at any one time (in the car, handbag, swimming bag…) as Country Bebe is in love with the banana bread one (hence no photo above, he snaffled it this morning after his swimming lesson).
This is just the type of brand I love: honest, clever, British and offering a genuinely yummy alternative to CRAP food. I salute you Nakd!
