Organic Maca Bar- Maple Chunk Fudge

Moving ever forward on our trek for the best tasting gluten free products, we found Organic Maca bars at the sneaker store.

The Maple Chunk Fudge bar tastes extremely similar to the Cherry Chunk Fudge. It's sweeter, and has sugar-like granules on the top, but otherwise it still has that same dried fruit tang. Don't get me wrong, I love that this bar contains only organic ingredients, but I'm not a huge fan of the taste. I think it's the maca that gives it the rather unexpected aftertaste. Interestingly too, if you squeeze the side of the bar you can see the moisture globules rise to the surface.

This bar is without a doubt superior in its contents- but don't expect it to be the antidote for your chocolate candy bar cravings. Again, it's wonderful on the trail or train, or whenever a quick gluten free pick me up is needed, but it's not my favorite. If I had to pick the cherry over the maple, I'd definitely opt for the cherry- at least it looks and tastes like cherry.
