Michael Hemsworth — October 14, 2025 — Lifestyle
The Arla Foods Easy Bite protein bar has been developed as a new concept for the snack product market that's crafted with a bite-sized composition to work well for the health-conscious snacking market.
The snack is crafted with the Arla Foods Ingredients' whey protein solution called Lacprodan EasyBar, which is reported to deliver a 40% protein composition in an 18-gram serving. The bar has eight ingredients, while also being free from added sugars, fats and Maltitol, and is high in fiber.
Senior Director of Performance Nutrition at Arla Foods Ingredients Peter Schouw Andersen spoke on the Easy Bite protein bar saying, "We’ve created this concept to respond to the biggest trends in the protein bar market. Taste and texture are still king, but health considerations are increasingly important – particularly for younger consumers. Easy Bite meets all these needs, offering a high-protein, low-fat, fibre-rich option that retains its softness without the need for a long ingredients list."
