Grenade High Protein, Low Sugar Bar - Caramel Chaos, 12 x 60 g

Product Information

Now, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but I certainly used to rely on ‘Carb Killas’ (as the name suggests) to be a go-to, lower carb bar, so the higher carb count is something to watch. As expected, it is sweeter than the milk chocolate Oreo bar, but not overly so. The white chocolate works well with the crème and the Oreo pieces add a wonderful savoury note.

One thing I will flag is something I’ve noticed in all Grenade’s more recent offerings – the slightly higher carb count. Who doesn’t love chocolate? This bar should be every chocoholic’s dream, but I can’t help thinking how different it can realistically be from the Fudge Brownie flavour…It’s certainly a good bar, but then we’ve come to expect that from Grenade by now. It’s nothing groundbreaking and it’ll never replace a Terry’s Chocolate Orange, but it is a decent bar Milk Protein (Calcium Caseinate (Milk), Milk Protein Isolate, Whey Protein Isolate (Milk)), Chocolate With Sweetener (20%) (Cocoa Mass Sweetener; Maltitol; Cocoa Butter, Milk Fat, Emulsifier; Soy Lecithin; Vanilla), Bulking Agent; Polydextrose; Gelatine Hydrolysate, Humectant; Glycerol; Soy Protein, Cocoa Butter, Soy Oil, Fat Reduced Cocoa Powder, Sweeteners; Xylitol, Sucralose; Tapioca Starch, Sugar, Flavourings, Salt, Emulsifier; Citric Acid Ester, Soy Lecithin; Colours; Titanium Dioxide, Copper Chlorophyll; Vegetable Oil; Shea Oil, Palm Oil; Natural Peppermint Flavour Protein Blend (Calcium Caseinate ( Milk), Whey Protein Isolate (Milk)), Milk Chocolate with Sweetener (20%) (Sweetener: Maltitol; Cocoa Butter, Whole Milk Powder, Cocoa Mass, Emulsifier: Soy Lecithin; Natural Flavouring), Bovine Collagen Hydrolysate, Humectant: Glycerol; Sweeteners: Maltitol, Sucralose; Palm Oil, Water, Fat- reduced Cocoa Powder (3%), Wheat Flour, Maize Starch, Rapeseed Oil, Bulking Agent: Polydextrose; Sea Salt, Wheat Starch, Emulsifier: Soy Lecithin; Raising Agents: Ammonium Carbonates, Sodium Carbonates; Acidity Regulator: Sodium Hydroxide; Flavourings.

The Armoury - Grenade Bar Flavours

I was worried the chocolate coating would overpower and detract from the whole ‘PB&J’ feel, but it really doesn’t – the flavours actually blend really well. In terms of flavour, the white chocolate is more of a hint, but this is strawberry ice cream, so what did we expect?I’m impressed once again, but as I said, fudge brownie is a pretty standard flavour. It’s not my favourite of the bars so far, but it’s absolutely worth a try, if not only for a break from your average protein bar. Dark Chocolate Mint – 8/10 Grenade have even switched up their usual ‘structure’, swapping the soya crispies for peanut chunks in the chocolate layer.

Chocolate orange. You’re either a fan or you can’t stand it. If you’re one of the latter, you’ll be pleased to know that Grenade haven’t gone overboard with the orange flavour here.Overall this wouldn’t be my go-to flavour – the banana flavour is just too artificial. It gets a 5/10 primarily because of the great texture and macros we’ve come to expect from the Carb Killa range. Peanut Nutter – 8/10 I have to say, the overall flavour is similar to that of the OG bar– maybe a little too familiar for some – probably owing to the caramel layer. There is some peanut flavour, but it’s much gentler than I, and other peanut lovers like me, would perhaps have liked.
