Snackers want bites that engage every sense at once, and with multisensorial snacking on the rise, FITCRUNCH's Puff N' Crunchy Protein Bars deliver a nourishing, multi-texture experience. In the protein bar space, consumers often complain about crumbly or chalky textures, and these new protein bars were developed to redefine expectations with a unique combination of marshmallow-like softness and a crisp cookie base enrobed in chocolate for first bites that begin with a crunch.
FITCRUNCH's newest, indulgent chef-crafted protein bars dropped in dessert-inspired varieties like Double Chocolate Rocky Road, Caramel Peanut S'mores, and Raspberry Meringue Pie. Nutritionally, each bar packs 18 grams of protein, three to six grams of fiber, and comes in at 200 calories or less for an experience that treats like a candy bar and fuels like a real protein source.
