Imagine a protein bar that tastes like Black Forest cake? Surreal, right? Well, we at Bold have developed a bar inspired by this traditional German cake. We know that you may have remembered birthday parties and even snacks at bakeries that sell slices of this delicious treat.
And do you know what's best about this new product? The Black Forest bar is a healthy version of the cake.
How did we do it? That's what you'll find out in this article.
Black Forest Bar Healthy Ingredients
The secret to the healthy version of the Black Forest flavor is the choice of ingredients. Without sacrificing flavor, we can find many health benefits for those who want an incredible life.
Cocoa nibs
Cocoa nibs are obtained after cocoa undergoes a drying, fermentation and grinding process. The pieces resulting from this process are called nibs. Because of the way they are made, they have a low sugar content, unlike other cocoa products. The flavor is similar to dark chocolate.
They are also full of antioxidants, which promote immunity and the anti-inflammatory process.
It contains several nutrients, such as:
- Iron: 6% of the recommended daily intake (RDI)
- Magnesium: 16% of the RDI
- Phosphorus: 9% of RDI
- Zinc: 6% of the RDI
- Manganese: 27% of RDI
- Copper: 25% of IDR
Note: values based on 100 grams of cocoa nibs.
Dehydrated strawberry
The Black Forest cake is known for its sweet chocolate flavor and whipped cream with the acidity of strawberries. This ingredient could not be left out of this bar. To make the Black Forest bar possible, we used dehydrated fruit. It is nothing more than strawberries with the water that makes up the fruit removed.
It has a large amount of vitamin C, excellent for strengthening the immune system. It is also rich in fiber, anthocyanins, ellagic acid, calcium, potassium, magnesium, zinc and vitamins B2 and B6. It is important for reducing cholesterol and triglycerides and also helps in wound healing.
Protein blend
Concentrated milk protein, calcium caseinate, and concentrated whey protein are the ingredients in the Black Forest bar's protein blend. The percentage of protein, a fundamental macronutrient, makes this a powerful food to help meet daily nutrient requirements.
Nutritional benefits
The Black Forest bar contains all the macronutrients - protein, carbohydrates, fats and fiber in balance. With emphasis on protein, as expected, with 20 grams of the nutrient in the bar. Although carbohydrates and fats are not seen in the same positive light as people see proteins and fibers, they are essential.
Carbohydrates should represent 50% of the calories consumed daily, while fats should represent 30%. However, you must know how to choose which types of carbohydrates and fats to consume, as we have already shown in detail in this blog.
We have eliminated some of the harmful substances
Our team, in addition to developing a healthy version of the world's most famous desserts, manages to eliminate some substances with low or no recommendation.
Trans fat
Ideally, we should not consume any trans fats. They are added to processed foods to give them more flavor. We don't need to resort to this harmful substance to make the Black Forest Bold incredible. So, you don't have to worry about this when consuming our bar.
No added sugar
Another substance that we should be very careful about is sugar. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends limiting it to 10% of daily calories. It is widely used to add flavor to foods and for its psychological effects, but Bold didn't need to add it to have the same surreal flavor as always. The sugars present come from the highly selected ingredients that we use.
Gluten free
There are no traces of gluten in the Black Forest Bar or any other Bold bar. In our factory, no food is produced with gluten, which eliminates the risk of cross-contamination. This is an especially important item for those with celiac disease.
Bar before or after training
Pre- and post-workout meals are essential to avoid muscle catabolism, when the body takes energy from the muscles for exercise. Eating properly also ensures that you achieve better performance and don't feel bad during and after training. Protein bars are excellent in both cases for several reasons.
They have an adequate nutritional composition, with all macronutrients, especially carbohydrates and protein, which are important before and after training.
And of course, if it's a Bold bar, your snack will be even more delicious. It's just as important as nutrition, isn't it? You'll achieve all your pre- and post-workout goals with our protein bars. Take advantage and try the Bold Black Forest before it's gone, because the edition is limited.
Bold Black Forest in the microwave
Chocolate sauce is the trademark of Black Forest cake. You can achieve something similar by putting the bar in the microwave for 15 seconds. It becomes super creamy and the chocolate runs when you cut into it.
It's also a way to vary the way you enjoy your Black Forest bar. Some people eat the Bold bar warmed up with ice cream, which reminds them of a delicious petit gateau. Did you drool over it too? Don't go without it, it's just a few clicks away in our online store.
