Nii Bars Review and Giveaway

There are many companies that are creating bars and protein snacks. The common thread in these bars is dates. I will be honest when I say that I know little to nothing about dates, other than their appearance. If I am being really honest I will tell you they have never been high on my list to try as they are visually unappetizing. The great thing about these bars and protein snacks is that the visual look of the ingredients is less important, and the sum of the parts becomes the focus.

The way in which I discovered Nii Bars is different than most ways I come across these type of products. One night Jason and I were watching Food Network and came upon a show that showcases up and coming companies seeking an investment to grow their business. I was immediately intrigued by what I saw on the screen and knew that I wanted to sample these for myself. Mom to three children, Shanais Pelka started Nii Bars in her kitchen. Her passion for feeding healthy, vegan, whole, nutrient dense foods to her family grew into an Nii Bars.

Nii Bars are organic, gluten-free, Non-GMO certified, vegan, soy-free and kosher. The ingredients in each bar are cold-pressed and they are sweetened with coconut nectar. They come in 5 flavors including Almond Chocolate Chip, Berry Cashew, Peanut Butter, Cherry Coconut and Cacao Coconut.

Almond Chocolate Chip: The first thing I tasted was dates. Included in the bar were tiny chocolate chips that provided little pops of sweetness distributed throughout.

Berry Cashew: The first thing I tasted was the berries . There was no doubt that this was a berry flavored bar. The berries that are included were cranberries and blueberries.

Peanut Butter: This was a drier bar then the others I sampled. I would have liked it to have more of a peanut butter flavor, but still a peanut packed bar. I am a huge fan of all things peanut butter so this was a small let down.

Cacao Coconut: Generally speaking I am not a fan of coconut plain or mixed into things. The first flavor I tasted was the coconut. There was no doubt that this was a coconut based flavor.

Cherry Coconut: This had a very distinct cherry taste but lighter on the coconut flavoring. The cherry used is packed full of flavor and adds a pop of color to these bars.
