I work at a health food store and didn't even realize we carry any sort of raw food bar other than Larabars...and today I spotted them. I bought one thinking it would be pretty good b/c it's from a small company and it looked tasty, but it totally knocked my socks off! I tried the Pecan Pie bar and it's raw, germinated, and amazing! It has apricots in it which made it sweet and fruity. Wow!
Here's their website:

You won't be disappointed!
Funny thing is, their bars are much cheaper on their site...they're pretty high in the store. I may have to buy online next time, too.

I ordered almost everything on the site over the last year and I can't think of anything that did not taste good.

The lemon walnut cookies sounded pretty good to me! Thanks for sharing. :)

I received my order via UPS today and I wanted to post my opinion of these products.

So far, I have tried the Walnut Fudge Brownie and the Pecan Pie Bar and I DO NOT like them at all!!!

The Walnut Fudge Brownie is mushy (like a pie that is not cooked enough) and is NOT sweet and is NOT chocolatey (I literally spit it out!). The Pecan Pie Bar is just a little better, but it is not sweet. The saving grace to the Pecan Pie Bar is that it does taste like it has a graham cracker crust, which I haven't had in a long time. The thing is, if I am going to splurge on a sweet treat I want it to be sweet and, well, have some flavor at least.

I am posting this because I would want to know if there were mixed reviews on a raw food product.

IMO, their products are very, very bland!!!

Sorry you don't like it, walnutty! The pecan bar is my favorite! I just bought more yesterday.
I haven't tried any of the carob items yet. I'm waiting for my HFS to special order some for me :)

Not too sweet? How about tastes like wet sand? I tried the fig bar today and spit it out also. They have NO taste at all - YUCK!!!
