Bumble Bars {Product Review}
Happy Friday! I hope you have had a great week and have some even better plans for the upcoming weekend! Other than a bit of Christmas shopping (and baking ) there isn’t too much on my agenda for the weekend! Just the usual relaxing…..by the Christmas tree!
Today, I have some samples of an awesome bar I found a few weeks back…. Bumble Bars! I mentioned them in this post and many of you were curious as to what they were! So I contacted the company and a lovely woman named Mary was kind enough to send me over a few flavors to review for you all!
For those of you unfamiliar with the company, Bumble Bar is known for making organic, gluten free, vegan snacks. They are an eco-friendly company and get all of their ingredients from farmer owned co-ops. They derive all of the sesame seeds used in the bars from a cooperative of 1,500 Ethiopian farmers who provide fair wages and educational training. The company also donates 10% of it’s profits to entities here in the U.S!
Now, if those aren’t some good reasons to go buy a bar…..then the flavor combinations will definitely change that!
Mary sent me over Lush Lemon, Chocolate Crisp, Amazing Almond and Original Peanut. (She sent large and small sizes of each). I had already tried the Amazing Almond, Original Peanut and The Mixed Nut Medley a few weeks prior, but the Lemon and Chocolate were new to me!
Original Peanut – well, you all know I love anything with peanuts/peanut butter, so I loved the flavor of this bar! This one is definitely my favorite out of the ones I tried!
Amazing Almond – Just like it’s name, it had a sweet flavor with subtle hints of almonds.
Chocolate Crisp – This bar was the perfect balance of chocolate for me! It wasn’t overly loaded with chocolate flavor, but had just enough to compliment the sesame seeds!
Lush Lemon – This was my least favorite out of the four. Although I still enjoyed it! The lemon flavor was a bit artificial, reminding me of those lemon Trix (that cereal from way back in the day). Then again, I’m sure getting a natural lemon flavor can be hard!
Besides the 4 flavors they have other amazing ones such as: Chai Almond, Classic Cashew, Harvest Hazelnut, Awesome Apricot, Chunky Cherry, Cherry Chocolate, Paradise Pineapple, Chocolate Mint and Chocolate Peanut Butter!
I know I will definitely be ordering some Classic Cashew, Harvest Hazelnut, Awesome Apricot and LOTS of Chocolate Peanut Butter!
This is the Lush Lemon Bar. They are a big bar! Plus I think they just look cool too!
This is the Chocolate Crisp.
This is the Original Peanut. See the whole peanuts mixed in with the sesame seeds?! Yum!
I found that I enjoy eating these most right before a workout! I like to have a banana with it to give me the perfect amount of energy!
They make a perfect snack to throw in your gym bag too!
These bars are definitely a new favorite of mine! I can’t wait until more flavors are available in my local store, but until then you can check out their website!
I want to thank Mary for sending me these delicious bars to review for you! If you have tried them, leave me a comment below and let me know what your thoughts were on them! For those of you who haven’t been able to try one, let me know which flavor most appeals to you! (Chocolate Peanut Butter for me!)
