The Aloha Chocolate Cherry bar has been launched as the brand's first dark chocolate-coated fruit bar that's crafted with nutrition and indulgence in focus. The snack bar is crafted with a blend of real cherry pieces, almond butter and organic dark chocolate to give it a cherry chocolate taste profile that's also rich in nutrients. The bar features the brand's proprietary pumpkin seed and brown rice protein blend to give it 14-grams of protein, 10-grams of fiber and five-grams of sugar per serving.
CEO Brad Charron spoke on the Aloha Chocolate Cherry bar saying, "Cherry chocolate is one of those flavor combinations that just works—it’s timeless for a reason. We’re not a brand that chases trends or rests on what’s familiar or easy. We’re focused on proving that wholesome, better-for-you food can taste incredible. This bar delivers on that promise: real ingredients, best-in-class macros, and a flavor that makes you excited for each consecutive bite. That’s what our customers expect from us, and that’s what we’re committed to giving them with each and every flavor we develop."
