Bobo's is a brand that is known for its nutrition bars, but at Expo West, it unveiled a new launch called Toast'r—toaster pastries that have oat crusts and jam or nut butter fillings.
The gluten-free, non-GMO and vegan products are being introduced in flavorful varieties like Strawberry Jam and Blueberry Lemon Poppyseed, as well as Chocolate Peanut Butter and Chocolate Almond Butter, which are fortified with protein from nuts.
While there are some toaster pastries that are laden with sugar, sprinkles and thick layers of glazed icing, these ones take a simple approach to snacking by putting wholesome ingredients from nature at the forefront. The better-for-you toaster pastries have the potential to appeal to kids and adults alike who are in need of a quick breakfast or snack.
