Around 1:30 most days you can find me running down 4 flights of stairs to get my mail. I am always excited when there is something other than bills in the stack of mail.
When I opened up the mailbox today, there was a surprise package from Larabar! I found myself running back up the stairs in hot pursuit of some scissors to crack the box open.
Lo and behold a Christmas card and tasty treat from the company that makes ‘real food‘.
Yum! I love, love, love coffee!
The card had a very festive message.
We hope you are having a merry and bright holiday season. We also hope you are resting up and re-energizing for the New Year.
As for us, we are looking forward to kicking off 2012 with our newest flavor…Cappuccino! Its our very own house blend of dairy-free Joe.
Enjoy the Treats!
Don’t mind if I do!
When they sent me the Chocolate Chip Cherry Torte I was over the moon about the taste. Seeing how much I love coffee, I couldn’t wait until my next meal. I immediately ripped open a bar and ate half of one on the spot.
- Taste - Smooth and refreshing, not overtly ‘coffee’. I think a dash of chocolate would be nice, but I suppose that would make it a mocha bar, now wouldn’t it?
- Smell – Mmm! As soon as you open the wrapper you are transported to a fabulous coffee shop.
- Texture – Smooth with a few bumps from the almonds and cashews, but it gives some crunch to the bar which is nice.
- Nutrition – Protein 5 grams, Carbs 22 grams, Fat 10 grams, Calories 200.
- Ingredients – Dates, almonds, cashews, coffee, and vanilla extract.
I give Cappuccino 3 out of 5 stars.
I fell in love HARD with the Chocolate Chip Cherry Torte. Let’s be honest, its hard to replace a first love. The Cappuccino bar is tasty, but it is not calling my name from the pantry. That being said, this is probably a good thing and in my world that should bump it up to 4 out of 5 stars.
Larabar is a fabulous treat made out of real food, so honestly you can’t go wrong with any of the flavors.
