Coconut, chocolate, and protein – lectin-free and dairy-free
These lectin-free coconut protein bars are the perfect healthy alternative to classic Bounty bars. They consist of a few natural ingredients, are completely dairy-free, and provide an extra portion of protein thanks to collagen protein. Crispy dark chocolate on the outside, juicy coconut filling on the inside – ideal as a snack, after sport, or with coffee.
