The Bio&Me Flapjack Oat Bars have been announced by the brand as a completely revamped version of its previous product that boasts a series of new recipes, a new branding aesthetic and more.
The snack bars feature the signature soft-baked formula of flapjack-style bars and come in three flavor options including Cocoa Hazelnut, Berry Boost and Toffee Apple. The snacks are formulated with a low level of sugar with 5% to 6% per bar, which comes from the whole fruit in the recipes. The brand is also introducing the Love Us Or We're Free promotion that will see consumers able to claim a refund in the UK if they aren't satisfied with the snack.
Co-Founder and CEO Jon Walsh spoke on the Bio&Me Flapjack Oat Bars saying, "We developed the new look and recipes with customer feedback front and centre, with the clear intention of making these bars the absolute best they can be in terms of taste, nutrition, and shelf appeal. We believe the promotion will help lower the barrier to trial and accelerate rate of sale, reflecting our commitment to delivering gut health products that truly deliver.”
