It may be hard to believe but I still have more goodies from Expo West to share. Finds’ friend Stacy found Curate Snacks on a trip to California this winter and asked me if I had seen them. I hadn’t. I saw them at Expo West and chatted with the team. They offered me a bunch of flavors to try. I tried a few and shared some in my Expo West New Finds Giveaway. Then, they sent me a huge box of snack bars to share and some of their new kids bars, too. Good news! I have more to share with three lucky readers so read on!
Curate means “to bring things together to share them as a collection.” The team at Curate Snacks says that’s what they do with every ingredient they select and snack they make. They start with wholesome ingredients and combine them in “unexpected” ways until they land on “brilliant combinations.” Their goal is to create healthy snacks that are interesting and “surprisingly good.” Their slogan is “We curate only the good stuff.” The snacks are all non-GMO and gluten free.
The snacks currently come in 6 flavors. They are Dark & Tempting Balsamic Fig and Hazelnut, Harmonious Blend Marcona Almond and Apricot, Salted Decadence Dark Chocolate & Almond, Irresistable Dark Chocolate Strawberries and Pistachio, Indulgent Dark Chocolate and Hazelnuts and Sweet & Tart Berry Bliss. The kids bars come in Oatmeal & Chocolate Chunk, Apple & Cinnamon and Chocolate & Banana.
I’m a fan of these bars and bring them with me in my travels. They’re a good size, not too sweet and have some good unusual (in a good way) taste combinations. I can see and clearly identify the ingredients in the bars. I love the Balsamic Fig and Hazelnut. Kristin says. “The Balsamic Fig Hazelnut Curate bar was so good. It reminded me of a Fig Newton but better!” Amanda likes the mix of flavors in the Marcona Almond and Apricot bar and the clean ingredient list. She loves the Dark Chocolate Almond which she calls “a super tasty bar that tastes like a healthy candy bar.” It is Stacy’s fave, too. She likes them all and had trouble playing favorites.
My kid taster Reese and her friend Claire gobbled up the kids snack bars on the way home from camp. They loved both flavors. Pam was going to take pics but her husband Tom finished the bars off before she had a chance. According to Pam, the kids’ line is a win!
I gave Pam some more bars for a photo opp. She said it was hard to get a picture, because the girls just wanted to eat the bars! That is a great endorsement.
You don’t have to take my word for it. As you can see, the folks at Curate sent me a whole lot of bars! I gave some away to friends and in an Instagram giveaway. I have more to share! I will send 3 lucky winners one of each adult bar and a few kids’ bars, too. Please use the Rafflecopter below to enter to win. The giveaway is open to US residents, 18 and over and is void where prohibited. The giveway ends August 4th. Winners will be selected and notified on August 5th.
