Restaurant Relief Energy Bars

Verb's Chef’s Special Flavor Aids the Restaurant Industry

— September 10, 2020 — Social Good
Direct-to-consumer, text-to-order energy bar brand Verb created a new Chef's Special flavor with the intention of supporting the restaurant industry during a time of need. The all-new Chef’s Special: Strawberry Rose Hibiscus flavor was created with James Beard Award winner and Cambridge, MA-based chef Tony Maws of Craigie on Main, and Claire Cheney, founder of Curio Spice in Cambridge, sharing an authentic chef-created snack.

The energy bar flavor is said to be full of the sweet flavors of freshly picked strawberries, plus delicate floral notes of rose and hibiscus.

The Strawberry Rose Hibiscus variety is exclusively available over text and 10% of all profits from the launch will be going towards the Verb Restaurant Initiative.
