The Fibre One Cake Bars have been launched by General Mill in the UK to offer consumers a new way to eat their favorite desserts every day without having to worry about consuming too many calories. Containing just 90 calories per serving, the bars come in 'Carrot Cake' and 'Triple Choc' varieties that are inspired by some of the most popular dessert varieties you'd find at a bakery. The bars are made with premium toppings that encompass a soft cake on the interior to offer the perfect serving size for enjoyment after your lunch or as a midday snack.
The Fibre One Cake Bars come as a responsive to the brand's success in the snacking division as consumers shift to favor smaller amounts of food over larger meals.
