Kind Snacks takes inspiration from smoothies for its latest bar recipe that uses pressed fruit and superfoods to offer consumers a conveniently edible version of some of their favorite blended drink combinations. This includes a Kind Pressed Pineapple Coconut Chia Bar that takes just like a smoothie.
The bars are made with pressed tropical fruits such as pineapple and apple that is then accented with coconut and chia seeds to improve digestion. The bar tastes similar to a smoothie thanks to the way the fruit is pressed -- retaining the fruit's natural and bold flavor. The ingredients are all-natural and the bars are made exclusively with produce making the snack an ideal gluten-free option. The use of natural fruits eliminates the need to add refined sugars to sweeten the bar, making it a healthy dessert option.
