Product Information

Now, that’s certainly not a bad thing. The interior is soft & chewy, which is pleasant, and it tastes good, just not what I was expecting. It’s mostly chocolate with a white chocolate coating.

And then there’s the issue that if you promise dark chocolate, you should really deliver dark chocolate. I love dark chocolate – it’s rich is wonderful, and I don’t even mind the hint of bitterness. But this isn’t it. It’s too sweet and too faint a flavour. Plus, the chocolate coating is too thin for it to hold it’s own against the mint. All the flavors look basically the same: a thin coating of milk chocolate and some sort of chunks on top (in this case, chocolate chunks.) Barebells made some rather large claims when this flavour was released, and similarities with a certain range of luxury Italian chocolates were more than implied (‘little crunchy Rocher-style Hazelnut pieces’). Does it live up to their hype?Covered in tiny crispy pieces of almond, its core is a soft, pleasant texture and tastes delicious. Not the best one like the salty peanut barebells protein bar, but it’s still one of the best ones out there. However, I’ll admit that this tastes more like a protein bar than any of the other flavors. There’s a distinct protein flavor that I can taste in most chocolate protein bars, and this is no exception. What sets Barebells apart is their candy bar-like texture. If you’re used to dense & chewy protein bars, Barebells will completely change the way you view protein bars. Barebells are a fairly new protein bar to the game, having been founded in 2016. However, that was in Sweden, and they didn’t make their way to the US for several years after that.

They’re not insanely high in fiber like Quest Bars, and they don’t contain a ton of sugar alcohols either (only around 5g per bar). Barebells has somehow figured out how to capture the texture you want in a candy bar, while still providing delicious flavor AND very favorable nutrition facts. All opinion expressed is author's own, does not constitute dietary advice or official recommendation, and is entirely subjective. I was the least excited to try this one because the flavor doesn’t sound that exciting. I’m not typically a big peanut gal, so I didn’t have high expectations.Also, the thin strip of caramel hardly provides any real flavor. Uhg, I feel like I wasted money, but at the same time, I’m glad I finally just tried it out for myself.

There are hundreds of protein bar brands available in the market, and every year or two, more and more businesses are hopping into the company with their products. Barebells is one such product that has been making a lot of buzz since the last year. White chocolate almonds have the protein same as salty peanut and the other protein bars, and the only major difference is that it’s got 20 grams of carbs in a single serving, which is a little higher than the salty peanut barebells protein bar. This review is in no way sponsored by Barebells or biased in any way. I’m about to rave about these protein bars, so I felt it necessary to preface this review by saying that. I won’t lie, this bar disappointed me. Although not a fan of coconut, I’ll make an exception when it’s mixed with chocolate – just not for this bar. However, If you don’t have any other options and still like to try it with proper diet management and calorie counting. You can have it once a day.So all in all Barebells have delivered on the mint and the sprinkles, but to call this mint dark chocolate is a bare-faced lie and I just won’t condone it. Lemon Curd White Chocolate (8.5/10) The white chocolate coating is lovely, but it’s still so thin that the almond pieces are still essentially naked, but the almond pieces themselves are a better choice than the go-to crispies of other brands. The core is soft with a slight chew and, although I’ve literally just shaded them, I do like the crispies in there for the subtle crunch. When Fulfil discontinued the ‘ Lemon Zinger’ I was more than a little bitter (pun fully intended). Although Barebell’s attempt isn’t quite as good, it’s certainly not bad. It’s not bad at all. The nougat interior is extremely soft and almost melts in your mouth, and it may be the best texture I’ve ever had in a protein bar. I hope this guide helped you in some way. We reviewed these protein bars in four main aspects; taste, texture, ingredients, and macro profile. If you still have any doubts, you can ask them in the comment section.

Most plant-based protein bars use pea protein, rice protein, peanut protein, and soy protein instead of whey or other milk-based protein.I felt like I could taste the sugar alcohols a bit more in this flavor, but it wasn’t overpowering by any means. The flavor was on point and I really enjoyed it. Creamy and soft (like all the Barebells bars), complete with gooey caramel and real cashew chunks...all enrobed in sweet milk chocolate...and all for just 204 calories, a whole 20g of protein and just 1.5g of sugar! But the combination of nougat, caramel, and peanuts makes this eat very much like a candy bar, especially when compared to most other protein bar options out there. There is no artificial flavor or protein taste, making this a really delicious bar. Historically speaking, protein bars have been very dense and chewy. For bars that have tried to mimic the candy bar textures, I’ve found that the flavor is not quite there, or they end up tasting very artificial (like Fit Crunch Bars).
