perkier foods product review

This review has been a long time coming but I just had to wait until I had tried the newest bars in the perkier family. But I am so glad that I did because the cocoa orange quinoa bar is a thing of wonder!

By far the best tasting chocolate orange healthy snack out there! It blows Nakd bars right out of the water! Perfect accompanied with a coffee or tea for an afternoon pick me up or a little lunch break treat at work.

​The other newer flavour on the block is the cocoa salted caramel bar. Not nearly as nice as the cocoa orange as personally I find salted caramel far too sweet and not too much else going on there. Still it works great as a post workout snack, as my body craves simple carbs the most when I'm depleted.
 
Very decadent and quite the opposite to my other favourite perkier bar - coconut chia which is refreshingly light and coco-nutty.
Weirdly enough it tastes really good broken into yogurt instead of granola.
​Generally I find adding cereal bars like these on top of porridge is a bit over kill, as I'm already getting more than enough carbs from the oats without having to add extra just to make my bowl look fitspo.. Also seriously don't have the time to arrange it all nicely and take a photo as well. Too busy with work and training and trying to get enough sleep.

I like practical and convenient snacks and perkier foods ace both of these!

The bars are perfect to have in my car/ training bag so that I can snack on when I going between work and training.

The new perkier bites are super yummy but exceeding crumbly making them not so good car food. Great to add to a homemade trail mix to liven it up a bit.
 
Their porridge pots are perfect for busy mornings and post weight in refuels at my Olympic Lifting competitions. The only issue I find is that they have soy protein powder in, which can make the oats quite cloggy and I personally don't like the taste of soy protein powder from previous bad experiences.
You don't even need to add hot water as it still mixes really well into a chilly oats bowl, and any addition of yogurt is a big bonus! Makes for a filling breakfast even on the busiest days.

​The perkier food family is ever expanding as offers some really awesome flavours and combinations.
Even better all of their products are GLUTEN FREE! Which is great news for coeliacs!
