Hello all! Don't forget to enter my giveaways for an EasyLunchbox System and an training ball if you haven't already :-).
Now for some chocolate reviews! First is a Coconut Coco Cream Protein Bar that you can purchase from Smallworld Beauty. The lovely Ghada generously sent me a complimentary bar to try out and review for you all. She has a great blog that you can check out here!
The Coconut Coco Cream bar has some great nutrition facts: 18 g. of protein, gluten free, AND no sugar, artificial sweeteners, hydrogenated oils, or preservatives!
8.5 of 10. The bar had a very nice soft and chewy coconuty inside with a thin chocolate coating. It was quite satisfying thanks to the protein (which did not interfere with the flavor I might add!). My only complaint is that the chocolate coating did taste a little artificial and wasn't quite as decadent as the chocolate I normally consume... of course, considering that this is supposed to be a protein bar and not really a chocolate bar, I was still impressed by the overall quality and taste, and I think you would be too!
Now for another unique chocolate bar manufactured by Attune... a PROBIOTIC chocolate bar :-). These bars actually have 5 times the live active cultures of yogurt! And they are only 80-90 calories with 3-8 g. of sugar. They're also an excellent source of calcium!
Here are the complimentary bars that Attune sent me for review:
(I love the cute logo on the chocolate!)
Now for the reviews:
Mint Chocolate: 8.5 of 10. Very minty! I also really enjoyed the crisps :-). The only drawback is that the chocolate itself was just average. But for only 90 calories, what do you expect?
Chocolate Crisp: 9.5 of 10. I loved the crunch of the crisps in this bar, and for some reason I liked the chocolate flavor much more too - very creamy and smooth (minus the crisps of course!).
Dark Chocolate: 8 of 10. It was smooth and creamy with a little 'bite' to it, but wasn't as spectacular as other dark chocolates I've tried. It still makes a great low-cal treat with probiotics ;-).
Well, my internet has already closed out on me three times while writing this post, so I'd better stop for now. I'll be back later this week!
