The Breakfast Energy Bites are made with a combination of 10 sustainably sourced ancient superfoods in three flavors: Goji Berry Chia, Cacao Coconut and Blueberry Ginger. The energizing bites are powered by a plant-based recipe of herbs, seeds, fruits, nuts, dates and a filling of creamy, roasted almond butter. As well as being packed with flavor, the bites have been purposefully crafted with functional ingredients like adaptogenic maca and turmeric to fight stress and fatigue, as well as pepitas and sacha inchi, which are packed with healthy fats. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 65% | Activity: 82% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Superfood Energy Bites:** The trend of superfood energy bites offers opportunities for companies to create nutritious and convenient snacking options. - **Functional Ingredients:** The use of functional ingredients like adaptogenic maca and turmeric in energy bites presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for the food industry to create products that address specific health concerns. - **Plant-based Goodness:** The growing demand for plant-based foods provides an opportunity for the food industry to develop more plant-based energy bites that cater to consumers' dietary preferences and values. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Snack Food Industry:** The snack food industry can capitalize on the trend of energy bites by developing innovative flavors and formulations that appeal to health-conscious consumers seeking convenient and nutritious snacks. - **Functional Food Industry:** The functional food industry can leverage the use of adaptogenic herbs and ingredients in energy bites to create products that promote specific health benefits, such as stress relief and energy boost. - **Plant-based Food Industry:** The plant-based food industry can expand its product offerings by developing more plant-based energy bites that cater to the growing demand for healthy and sustainable plant-based snacks. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Mid-Day Energy Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3pm-afternoon-bites.md) - [Superfood-Infused Chocolate Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superfoodinfused-chocolate-bites.md) - [Plant-Based Energy Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daily-harvest-bites.md) - [Balancing Plant-Powered Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnamon-crunch-by-rootless.md) - [Energizing Protein-Rich Snack Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rxbar-protein-energy-bites.md) - [Energizing Chocolate Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolates-for-energy.md) - [Expansive Protein Energy Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/protein-energy-bites.md) - [Jammy Superfood Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smash-bites.md) - [Protein-Forward Energy Balls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-protein-ball-co-ballsy-by-nature.md)
