Right on time for back-to-school season, superfood jam maker Chia Smash introduced Smash Bites, a delectable, protein-packed snack in the form of a poppable bite. These snackable superfood bites use sunflower butter, cashew butter, classic peanut butter or chocolate peanut butter to envelop a gooey fruit jam center, providing a satisfying multi-textured treat to energize all ages.
With five to nine grams of plant protein, Smash Bites turn the classic pairing of peanut butter and jam into a snackable format that needs no sandwich bread, all while offering school-safe options with creamy seed butter for those with sensitivities to nuts.
Ingredient-conscious parents and caregivers will appreciate Chia Smash's commitment to clean, simple and natural ingredients, with the brand promising nutritious formulas made with "Nothing weird, just super[natural] ingredients."
