Caffeinated Granola Bars

Awake Chocolate's Granola Snack Bars Deliver Energy and B Vitamins

— February 8, 2016 — Lifestyle
In addition to producing a range of flavorful caffeinated chocolate snacks, Awake Chocolate is expanding its product assortment with a new granola snack line.

Rather than giving a boost of energy in chocolate form, Awake's Energy Granola bars provide roughly the same amount of caffeine as a half cup of coffee, plus beneficial B Vitamins. These energy-boosting snacks come in a range of satisfying flavors, from Coconut Apricot and Cinnamon Bun to Dark Chocolate Caramel and Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter. These snacks are the perfect source of on-the-go energy for long hikes or busy days in the city.

With the expansion of coffee culture, many consumers are looking for caffeine to be included in their favorite food items as an alternative to brewed coffee and energy drinks.
Trend Themes
1. Caffeinated Snacks - As consumers seek alternative sources of caffeine beyond traditional coffee and energy drinks, food and snack companies have an opportunity to innovate with caffeinated snacks.
2. Functional Snacks - The growing demand for healthy snacks with added functional benefits, such as B Vitamins and natural sources of energy, presents an opportunity for food companies to create more products like Awake's Energy Granola Bars.
3. Convenience Foods - As the convenience food market continues to grow, there is an opportunity for food companies to capitalize on the demand by creating easily accessible, energy-boosting snack products like Awake's Energy Granola Bars.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage Industry - The food and beverage industry has an opportunity to capitalize on the growing demand for functional and caffeinated snacks.
2. Fitness and Wellness Industry - As fitness and wellness continue to be a growing trend, companies in this industry could benefit from incorporating caffeinated and functional snacks like Awake's Energy Granola Bars into their product lines.
3. Convenience Store Industry - The convenience store industry has an opportunity to meet the growing demand for convenient, on-the-go energy-boosting snacks like Awake's Energy Granola Bars.
