While it may seem like a long time ago, it was only three months back that Greg Doucette’s brand HTLT revealed three new flavors of its protein snack, the CICOBar. The brand introduced the product at the start of the year in the one Double Chocolate flavor, so more options would definitely be appreciated, and this week, two of those three previously previewed extensions have arrived.
For those that didn’t catch that announcement of more flavors for HTLT’s CICOBar back in May, the three new tastes named were Birthday Cake, Raspberry Cheesecake, and Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup. You can now purchase a Birthday Cake CICOBar and Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup CICOBar from the brand’s online store, although there is no sign or mention of the left-out Raspberry Cheesecake.
Birthday Cake and Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup are indeed new flavor experiences for the CICOBar, although there is a lot more to them. According to HTLT, it has improved the product with the flavor drops, making it softer and tastier. It has also increased in size going from 55g to a 27% larger 70g block, although interestingly, the amount of protein you get has not changed; in fact, it’s a bit lower.
The original Double Chocolate CICOBar had 21g of protein, 21g of carbohydrates, 6g of fat, and 200 calories. The softer and tastier CICOBar in Double Chocolate and the new Birthday Cake and Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup flavors has 20g of protein, despite that increase in size. The carbohydrates are much higher at 31g, with 7g of that is sugar, alongside 8g of fat and a calorie count of 220.
You can grab HTLT’s new, improved, and larger, although not leaner, CICOBar, directly from its online store at $35.99 for a box of 12 bars, and for a limited time, you can use the coupon “CICO” for 10% off, bringing the protein snack down to $32.39.
