Rather than enjoying a Mocha Latte, Coconut Mocha or a [Caramel Macchiato](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snck-protein-bar) from a cup, CoffeeBar makes it possible to consume these drink flavors in the form of a handheld snack. As well as getting satisfaction from these familiar drink flavors, CoffeeBar snacks also provide a [shot of energy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caffeinated-energy-bar)—roughly the same amount that can be found in a full cup of fair trade coffee.

When it comes to portability, it's far more convenient to carry around a product that's solid rather than liquid. With these snack bars, there's no risk of making a mess with a spill or being burned by hot coffee.

These vegan, gluten-free and non-GMO [coffee-inspired snack bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barebells-vegan-bars) are available by the box or subscription. For each box purchased, CoffeeBar helps to support education in Nicaragua.
