Protein bars are a great idea, but since their conception they have been flawed. High priced, full of sugar, loaded with additives and preservatives, disguised with sugar alcohol, and more often than not they are just a candy bar with added protein. Even the protein in most protein bars on the market is sub par. For decades no one has ever addressed the problems of today’s protein bars. It’s been nothing but more of the same over priced, fancy packed, tasteless bars. Until Now!

Needtobuildmuscle introduces better protein bars.

A high quality protein bar that is 100% natural with no additives, preservatives, corn syrup, or sugar alcohol. No gimmicks or sales tricks, just a fantastic new source of protein and nutrition that puts the power in your hands. Better protein bars are not bars that sit on the store shelves for years; they are bars that you make yourself, when you are ready. So not only are they 100% natural but they are 100% fresh.

Each better protein bar pack comes with all you need to make 12 fresh homemade all natural protein bars. What could be better than making your very own fresh protein bars? It’s simple; we took all of the work out of it for you. With the better protein bar pack all you need to do is pour and mix, that’s it. No measuring, no thinking, and no baking. In just 2-5 minutes from start to finish and you have 12 fresh, 100% all natural protein bars.

There are a few places for me to get fresh honey around here but I will try the "Sue Bee"

What type of peanut butter do you recommend?
 
i use organic peanut butter, you can freshly make it at whole foods or you can buy it in a jar at any health food store.

or if you have pb allergy than use sunbutter, it tastes almost the same and is from sunflower seeds. of course all of it is unsalted and pure.
 
I use natural raw honey and natural almond butter. FTMFW!

Best tasting bars evar!

I wish...seriously.

If I have a chance today, I'll note my specific likes/dislikes about them (I want to give a detailed write-up, but I am heading to Spain for a business trip and running around taking care of last minute errands). I honestly think it's great that so many people have found a strong liking with Mr.Spellwin's product, and please, for anyone else, don't hesitate to try them! They're just not for me.
 
^^^i can't imagine why you did not like them. I had a bunch of guys at the gym over to shoot pool and the whole batch of 12 of them was gone within minutes.

and for a 1.20 per bar I can't imagine that price would be an issue.

maybe you had trouble mixing the ingredients or you did not use the right amount of water and they came out too runny or hard?
 

FOREWARD
I'd like to thank Mr.Spellwin for coming out with such an innovative product that so many helpful members of this site have found to be nothing short of 'win'. As we all know, taste is SUBJECTIVE, and it just wasn't to my liking. This is NOT a stab at the product, just one man's review. Please don't turn this in to a flame-fest, I respect the integrity of the board and hope that open, constructive dialogue can be preserved when matters such as this arise.

BUT, over a long enough timeline, as we all know, data will normalize and there will be feedback on both ends of the curve. That being said, I am writing from the lamenting left-hand side and probably am the third, forth, or fifth sigma and obviously represent a VERY small portion of the population who wasn't a big fan of this product. Here's the breakdown:

PROS
- Fresh, DIY protein. If you're serious about your shape, you know the importance of FRESH food, and this fits the bill nicely
- Quality - the bars a super-compact for the nutrients that it provides, and left me asking: "WTF are all other protein bar manufactures adding to their bars if it's 3x the size at the SAME macros?!"
- Customizable to your liking, so you can be creative in catering the flavor to your taste

CONS
MIXING
I followed the directions PRECISELY as listed. 3/4cup honey, 1cup PB, mix by hand. What a massive mistake that was. Unless you have a teflon-lined skin, these things are a nightmare to mix. After a few frustrating sticky-handed minutes I sprayed by hands down with PAM and things went much better. EXCEPT...that even after a THOROUGH mixing, the wet ingredients were far insufficient to properly suspend all of the mix. I came close with the Choco Nanner mix...NO WHERE CLOSE ENOUGH for the PB mix, so I have to add water.

So, IMHO, the wet ingredients for the recipe, made in the manner described on the package, and mixed as recommended, took significantly more effort and time than I could have ever anticipated.

FLAVOR
Good. BUT the flavor of the packaged goodness easily gets lost and overpowered by the PB and honey.

MACROS
Ok, this was the one that really bit my ass. The package details, AS MADE, is 414-cal/21F/26P/36C. Seriously? You couldn't just give me the 'as-is' and let me do the rest (or are people that bad at calculating their own macros?) Curiosity then got the best of me...so let's walk through a rough estimation of what's "really" in the bag: (NOTE: I'm using the values obtained from calories count.com)

NATTY PB: 1 cup / 12bars = 1.33tbsp per bar: 133cal/10.5F/6.5P/ 4C
NATTY CLOVE HONEY: 3/4 cup / 12 bars = 1tbsp per bar: 60cal / 17C

Calculating it all out
CALORIES: 414 - 133 - 60 = 221calories
FAT: 21 - 10.5 = 10.5g
PROTEIN: 26 - 6.5 = 19.5g
CARBS: 36g - 4g -17g = 15g

"ESTIMATED MACROS IN BAG (per Bar,. assuming 1 dzn"
221cal
10.g Fat
19.5g Protein
15g Carbohyrates

$1.50 / 19.5g per bar for mix, assuming free shipping

...damn. And that's assuming FREE shipping and not even factoring the cost of my natty PB, and Honey. So almost HALF of all macros are dreived from the PB and honey.

TASTE
Finally, the taste. When I was a child my mother used to make this amazing snack by rolling oats with PB and honey and lil bit 'o flour. The taste brought my back to eagerly standing on my tippy-toes awaiting the tasty goodness she used to prepare, which is great for nastalgic purposes, not so much for an adult looking for some diverse texture/flavor in a protein bar.

CONCLUSION
Given the cost, effort, and overall flavor of the bars, it's just not my thing.

Awesome! I really wish for the success of this product and many happy customers!

AMAZON = $17.99 / 12 = $1.50 per bar, for 19.g protein...not even factoring in the cost of PB, honey, shipping, and time to prepare. Still, not a bad deal, but I'd much rather whip up a shit-ton of chicken and store it for later use when factoring the aforementioned.

I wouldn't rule it out...but for a '5 minute' recipe, I shouldn't be required to dick around with varying levels of the raw ingredients.
 
My 1st 2 bags of Chocolate Raspberry and Butterscotch should be sitting on my porch waiting for me when I get home today. I make the mistake of snacking on chocolate chip cookie dough flavor balance bars too often, so I'm looking forward to trying these.
 
I like mine. I admit they are a bit hard to put down, but as long as you have a drink on hand they are great.

I am very kitchen challenged and I hate putting things together but come on man.... mixing honey, water, PB and the bar ingredients into a bowl was not at all difficult for me.

the fact that I get to add raw ingredients that are not procesed is very appealing to someone health consious.
 
I made my 1st batch of Butterscotch bars last night. Overall I'm pretty happy with the taste. I used Raw honey from Fresh n' easy and organic peanut butter from Frazier's Farms, so that drove my cost up a decent amount. My wife was interested in what I was doing and laughed at the fact that I was using a wood spoon to mix, so she took over all the mixing. I've got a couple bars in my office fridge to snack on today. I'll definately be trying other flavors.
