Fulfil Vitamin and Protein Bar (15 x 55 g Bars) — Chocolate Salted Caramel Flavour — 20 g High Protein, 9 Vitamins, Low Sugar

Product Information

The good news is that, as protein supplements continue to balloon in popularity, there are a plethora of bars, brownies and biscuits to help you get your fix. The best bit? Unlike the first ones to hit the shelves, many of them genuinely taste great, too. When I opened up this chocolate salted caramel protein bar, it immediately reminded me of Barebells“Creamy Crisp” protein bar (which I absolutely love).

During exercise, there is an increase in the breakdown of protein in the muscle, and so it's important to include enough protein foods in your diet to counteract a negative protein balance. Protein is responsible for a host of activities in the body. 'It plays a key role in everything from hormone production and brain function to a healthy immune system,' says qualified running coach and EvolveYou trainer Melissa Kendter. It also plays a key role in cell repair.

The best protein bars contain sufficient ‘complete protein’ – protein containing all the essential amino acids that the body can’t make on its own.

In the first 30 to 60 minutes after intense exercise, the body is primed to use protein and carbs for muscle recovery and rebuilding,' says Kendter. The exterior of this bar is loaded up with crispy puffed rice, leading me to believe that this bar is going to have an amazing Crunch Bar-like texture. The interior is soft and fluffy, and the crispies on the outside add a great crunch to the bar, making this eat very much like a candy bar. The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends that the average adult consumes at least 0.8g of protein per kg of bodyweight per day. Fulfil most recently released their triple chocolate flavor, and I was really excited to give this one a try.In terms of flavor, I really don’t get any caramel taste, and definitely not the salted aspect. I love the combination of salty & sweet in salted caramel flavor, but those flavors don’t come through in this bar. With all of that being said, I actually really enjoyed this bar. If it weren’t for the fact that this is supposed to taste like salted caramel, this one would be a real winner for me.
