Soft-Baked Granola Snacks

The Toasted Oat Bakehouse's Soft Granola Comes in Nostalgic Flavors

— March 4, 2020 — Lifestyle
Granola is often baked to a crunchy, crispy texture but The Toasted Oat Bakehouse takes a different approach with its chewy and soft granola snacks. The small-batch Toasted Oat Granola is offered in nostalgic flavors like Blueberry Cobbler, Apricot Shortbread and Cherry Streusel, all of which are made without gluten or dairy.

The Toasted Oat Bakehouse prepared to reveal its new product packaging at Expo West, which introduces colorful pouches that highlight the fact that the granola is made with organic coconut oil. The product's new identity better communicates the soft granola maker's commitment to ingredient transparency and a peek at the soft granola snacks can be seen through a clear window on the stand-up pouches.
