# Cold-Pressed Protein Bars The Primal Pantry Snack Bars Opt for Entirely Natural Ingredients By M | Published 2016-08-11 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/natural-ingredients References: [foodbev](http://www.foodbev.com/news/snack-bar-brand-primal-pantry-launches-natural-protein-bars/) & [primalpantry](http://www.primalpantry.com/) The [Primal Pantry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/angel-city-football-club) is offering consumers a series of paleo snack bars constructed out of natural ingredients that are clean, healthy and cold-pressed in order to give the most wholesome blend of fruit and nut flavors. The bars offer a high dosage of protein with reduced calories, thanks to the lack of sugar and artificial ingredients found in the bars. The brand focuses on creating its bars using a process often seen reserved primarily for juicing -- known as the cold-pressed method. This means that the fruits, nuts and seeds found in the bars are bound together using a machine that doesn't require heat -- leaving the ingredients to contain their highest nutritional value. The snack offers a healthy portion of ten grams of protein, along with healthy carbs and fats. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.9/10 - Popularity: 87% | Activity: 83% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Clean Eating:** Opportunity for creating more food products made with natural ingredients and without artificial additives. - **Paleo Diet:** Opportunity for developing snacks and bars that cater to those following a paleo diet, with a focus on natural, whole ingredients. - **Cold-pressed Technology:** Opportunity for applying the cold-pressed method to other food products to preserve their nutritional value and create unique flavor profiles. ### Who This Affects Most - **Food and Beverage:** The food industry can explore the market demand for clean, natural snacks and develop innovative products that meet consumer preferences. - **Wellness and Fitness:** The wellness industry can leverage the rise of the paleo diet and offer a variety of healthy, paleo-friendly snacks and bars for fitness enthusiasts. - **Food Technology:** The food technology industry can invest in researching and developing cold-pressed techniques for a range of food products, unlocking new possibilities and nutritional benefits. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Free-From Pressed Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pressed-bars.md) - [Clean-Label Crunchy Protein Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/south-40-snacks.md) - [Plant-Based Nut Bar Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-protein-nut-bars.md) - [Clean Ingredient Protein Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bodybar-protein.md) - [High-Protein Low-Ingredient Snack Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rxbar-high-protein.md) - [Balanced Bakery-Inspired Snack Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-protein-soft-baked-bars.md) - [Decadent Protein Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ms-high-protein-bars.md) - [Natural Ingredient Protein Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pb2-performance-plant-protein-bars.md) - [Dessert-Like Beef Protein Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prime-bar.md)
