Kalumi recently introduced its newest beauty food marine collagen protein bar flavor, 'Cheeky Chai,' through an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign. For the launch of the new flavor, Kalumi teamed up with Girls Inc., so that all of the profits from the superfood snack would go towards supporting the organization.
The all-new Cheeky Chai snack bar itself is a standout because it is the brand's first-ever seed-based beauty food bar, with a taste that emulates the comforting flavors of a tea latte.
Within the food industry, a number of brands are now launching empowering products that are specifically designed to support young girls. Some of the other examples of this include the Girl Pow! Sprinkles for Girls Who Code and the superfood snack bar Health Warrior and justBOBBI created for Girls Inc.
