Catching up with Raw Revolution!

Today is CATCH UP Day!  Well, one of the MANY Catch Up Days, I guess!  First I want to start off with Raw Revolution!  If you have been to my site in the last month or two you may have seen my many posts about the different flavors of Raw Revolution Bars I have had the chance to try!  Well, today I am going to share a few more experiences with you!  These are GREAT Bars!  Raw Rev has LOTS of awesome flavors and I've enjoyed everyone I have tried! 

Chocolate Coconut Bliss - well, of course I LOVE the name!  Anything with BLISS in the name gets extra points with me!  This bar has the following ingredients - Organic Cashews, Organic Sunflower Seed Kernels, Organic Agave Nectar, Organic Dates, Organic Coconut, Organic Cocoa processed with Alkali, Organic Almonds, Organic Sprouted Flax Seed.  My personal findings were that it had LOTS and LOTS of Coconut in it!  The Crisp and Flavorful Slivers are wonderful!  Naturally sweet and chewy!  The Chocolate is Semi-Dark in appearance and on the tongue and I LOVED that!  The Almonds are HUGE!  And FRESH!  MOVE OVER ALMOND JOYS - this Raw Vegan Bar kicks the other guys butt!  At the end of this lovely edible experience - the chocolate becomes more sweet than dark - probably because of the coconut, dates, and Agave trio...and the sweet, crisp, and creamy aftertaste lingers that tasteful coconut-goodness!

Heavenly Hazelnut Chocolate - This one smells like Hazelnut AND Chocolate - it certainly lives up to its name!  Upon first tastes I could notice the sweet dates and chocolate.  There are many nutty notes playing their tunes, here!  Hazelnut, Almond, Cashew = A NUT Powerhouse!  I can taste each one individually as well as together to create its own flavor.  For some reason I picked up a hint of a coffee taste...maybe because I hear and see a lot of Hazelnut Coffee's and it's one of those flavor association things with me - not sure - regardless my taste buds are delighted with this bar!  The ingredients in this specific bar are: Organic Cashews, Organic Sunflower Seed Kernels, Organic Agave Nectar, Organic Dates, Organic Cocoa processed with Alkali, Organic Hazelnuts, Organic Sprouted Flax Seed.

Coconut Delight - I have been consuming more and more Coconut Products lately!  I will talk about that in near-future posts!  As for this flavor of the Raw Rev Bars...another winner!  Sweet Coconut and Cashew upfront - then the dates come into play!  It's not a tropical banana/coconut type flavor but more straight-up coconut and cashew and I LOVE IT!  This has a wonderful chew and texture to it!  It's FRESH!  It's a little sticky but not overly-so.  Most importantly...it's SUPER YUMMY!  As for the official ingredients for this bar it has Organic Cashews, Organic Dates, Organic Sunflower Seed Kernels, Organic Agave Nectar, Organic Coconut, Organic Almonds, Organic Sprouted Flax Seed.  Powerful and fresh ingredients are always appreciated!

And Finally...

Spirulina Dream -  I sure do appreciate Spirulina!  I'm very excited this company uses it in some of their products!  The very first Raw Revolution Bar I tried was this one!  I was lucky enough to have another not too long ago!  This flavor smells SWEET and of GREENS, too!  To the eye - it's very VERY green - dark and rich in color with specks of nuts.  It's slight oily on the surface.  It has a very nice chewiness to it.  It's surprisingly sweet, satisfying and delightful!  Ingredients include: Organic Cashews, Organic Dates, Organic Sunflower Seed Kernels, Organic Agave Nectar, Organic Almonds, Organic Spirulina Powder, Organic Sprouted Flax Seed.

So...YES...I am a FAN of Raw Revolution!  I think as a special treat these are wonderful!  Of course I wouldn't have one everyday but it's a nice treat or snack on-the-go!  The flavors are great!  Have you tried any of them yet?  If so which ones!?  What were your thoughts?

I will have at least two more posts today...stay tuned!
