The Clif Zbar Bake Sale Collection is the brand's latest creation formulated with kids nutrition in mind along with taste and texture experiences that are in line with individual preferences. The snack bars come in two new flavors including Cookies 'n Creme and Cinnamon Roll, which are both characterized by their soft-baked profile that has 11 to 13-grams of whole grains in each serving. The energy bars are also non-GMO and USDA Organic Certified to give them a health-minded edge for parents to feel good about.
