FAQs

What makes the dark chocolate 'real'?

The dark chocolate is made with cocoa butter, providing an authentic chocolate flavor and texture, unlike many other bars that use palm oil or other fats.

Are these bars suitable for a post-workout snack?

Yes, with 12g of protein, they can be a good option for post-workout recovery when paired with other macronutrients.

Can I eat these if I'm vegan?

Yes, NuGo Dark® Protein Bars are Certified Vegan.

What allergens might be present in these bars?

The primary ingredients are generally safe for many diets, but always check the product packaging for the most up-to-date allergen information, which may include soy, nuts, or dairy depending on shared manufacturing lines.

How many bars are in a package?

This specific product listing is for a package containing 12 bars.

What is the benefit of using cocoa butter instead of palm oil?

Cocoa butter provides a superior melt-in-your-mouth texture and authentic dark chocolate flavor. Additionally, avoiding palm oil is often cited as being better for environmental sustainability.

Are these bars intended as a meal replacement?

NuGo Dark® Protein Bars are intended as a snack or supplement, not a full meal replacement. They provide protein and some carbohydrates, but may lack the balanced macronutrient profile of a complete meal.

Troubleshooting

Chocolate coating melted

This can happen if the bars are exposed to heat. While the taste may be affected, the bar is still safe to eat. Place the bars in a refrigerator for a short period to re-solidify the chocolate.

Bar is dry or crumbly

This can sometimes occur due to storage conditions. Ensure bars are stored in a sealed environment and try consuming them with a beverage to improve texture.

Care Instructions: To maintain the quality of the real dark chocolate coating, store the bars in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Avoid leaving them in a hot car or in direct sun, as the chocolate may melt and affect the texture and appearance. Once opened, consume the bar within a reasonable timeframe.
