RXBAR is introducing a smaller version of its full-sized protein bars called RXBAR Minis, which come in at less than an ounce. The bars are half of the size of the brand's standard protein bars and contain six grams of protein with just 100 to 110 calories per bar. The miniature protein bars are being introduced in blueberry and coconut chocolate varieties, both of which are gluten-free and made with eight ingredients or less—including dates, egg whites, nuts and natural flavors. Later this year, more flavors of the bite-sized snacks are set to be introduced.
A variety of snack food brands are launching miniature versions of favorite products for consumers who are looking for snacks that are smaller than ever yet just as packed with nutritional value.
