Choco bites
Updated: Dec 17, 2020
Choco bites are a great alternative to chocolate when you're having a sugar craving :) and the best thing about them is... that they don’t contain any chocolate!
Quick facts about the Choco Bites
They're naturally sweetened, that means no added refined sugar.
They're high in fibre, which will keep you full for a long time.
They're vegetarian/vegan.
They're a great snack on the go, especially when you need that sweet fix.
2-3 Choco Bites should help if you are looking for a pre-workout snack. They’re a great alternative to the commercial cereal bars filled with added sugars.
They're dairy-free.
No baking is needed. You only need a blender and your hands ;) Let's get to it!
