ORIGIN STORY
We are constantly looking for creative ways to work with familiar ingredients to produce new products. We decided to create an energy bar to fuel our explorations in beautiful southern Southeast Alaska that would be as “keto-friendly” as possible as we follow a largely ketogenic diet. In this instance, we wanted to put a spin on a traditional “white” chocolate to see if we could create a white chocolate we actually enjoy as we are not fans of traditional white chocolate. White chocolate is the combination of cocoa butter, milk powder, and sugar. White chocolate is “white” because it does not contain any cocoa nibs. This white chocolate bar is light brown because we added coffee for both the flavor and the caffeine. Rather than whole milk powder, we opted to use whey isolate powder as it is lower in carbohydrates and higher in protein. Our first iteration of bars always contains cane sugar as the baseline for flavor assessment but in future iterations we will offer a bar that is sweetened with Allulose. The goal of this bar was not to create a meal replacement bar or a high protein bar. Stay tuned as we are working on this project as well!
