Energizing Sesame Bars

Absolutely Gluten Free's TahiniBAR Energizes with Sesame Seeds

— December 15, 2017 — Lifestyle
There are plenty of energy bars available to consumers that feature sesame seeds as an ingredient alongside nuts, seeds, fruits and other sources of short-term and long-term energy, but the new sesame seed bar from Absolutely Gluten Free puts a spotlight on the ingredient.

The dairy-free, gluten-free TahiniBAR products from Absolutely Gluten Free is available in three flavors: Cocoa Nibs, Pistachio and Vanilla, each of which boasts just 100 calories per "super seed energy bar."

The health benefits of sesame seeds are immense, as the small seeds are packed with vitamins, minerals, calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc, fiber and protein. Although tahini is most familiar to consumers as a Middle Eastern sesame paste, these energy snack bars offer a conveniently handheld way for the flavors of sesame seeds to be enjoyed.
Trend Themes
1. Sesame Seed-based Energy Bars - New energy bars are being developed with sesame seeds as the primary ingredient, creating an opportunity for manufacturers to offer an alternative to the traditional nut and fruit-based bars.
2. Gluten-free and Dairy-free Energy Bars - The development of gluten-free and dairy-free energy bars from Absolutely Gluten Free demonstrates a growing trend towards meeting the needs of consumers with dietary restrictions.
3. Sesame Seeds as a Superfood Ingredient - As consumers continue to prioritize health-conscious diets, manufacturers can capitalize on the nutrient-dense benefits of sesame seeds by featuring them as a key ingredient in various food and beverage products.
Industry Implications
1. Health Food Industry - The development of sesame seed-based energy bars presents an opportunity for manufacturers in the health food industry to offer innovative products that cater to the growing consumer demand for nutrient-dense snacks.
2. Gluten-free Industry - Absolutely Gluten Free's dairy-free, gluten-free TahiniBAR creates opportunities for manufacturers in the gluten-free industry to develop innovative products that cater to consumers with dietary restrictions.
3. Superfood Industry - The surge in demand for nutrient-dense superfoods presents an opportunity for manufacturers in the superfood industry to highlight the numerous health benefits of sesame seeds and other superfood ingredients in their products.
