Coffee & Cacao Bar 95 grams

Hi.

I've been eating the Red Forest Bars for some time and recently I tried the Cacao ones.

The first thing I noticed was how different they were (love them both) in texture and size. And now I decided to weight them and found out that actually they're not 85 grams like the label claim (and same as forest's) but 95 grams. Which is not something bad, but I wonder about the nutritional aspects of it, so I guess the values on the label doesn't apply, as their for 85 grams, right?

Hi @MrFloppy,

Good to see your eye for detail

We test every production batch with a number of samples, but something must a certain part must have slipped this control. In this case the nutritional value will be a bit higher indeed. With the new bar coming soon, this shouldn't be an issue anymore.

Best regards,
Eelco

Wow, wow wait... New bar coming soon?
Now I gotta know more about it

I hope you don't discontinue the current ones. I already miss the banana and cinnamon 🥺

Hi MrFloppy,

We're testing 3 new bars at the moment, also a banana flavor (no cinnamon). Our tests are very promising, the bars have a good crunch and flavor, more in line with the shakes. So, yes, we'll be replacing the current bars. But a better and more tasty product will come in their place We'll keep you guys posted here!

I also like the new texture of the Bars, they are more dry i would say. The first ones were too sticky and hard to eat. Not to mention transporting in heat.

I like the Coffee Bar, but i am still waiting for the Coconut Bar. My hopes gone up, cause the Coconut Shake appeared ^^

Hi @Christian_K,

Great to hear that you like the new bars!

About the bars, there are definitely coming some new flavours. Currently, we're working on them and it's going well. So hopefully, somewhere in the next couple of months you can enjoy the new flavours!

Best,
Vera

Any news on the new flavours?
I'm about to order my new 2 month batch in a couple weeks and it would be a bum to find a day later that new flavours are being released

I know it's "classified information" but maybe a hint if I'm safe to do the order 🤭

Hi @MrFloppy, tricky question you ask here

For now, all I can say is that you're safe to order. But when you order a new batch after that, something new will appear. Does this hint help you?

LOL
Yeah, that's helpful
