Monday was a really long day for me. I woke up at 4:15, was out of the house by 7:00, and didn’t get home until after 9:00 at night. It was a great day, though – just super busy!
By the time I dragged my sorry behind to my front door with my 18 bags (bag lady, anyone?), I was ready to sit down and relax… err, write some blog posts. When I got to the front door, I noticed a petite package waiting for me with a Larabar stamp on the return address.
This was a complete surprise! I love working with the folks over at LÄRABAR, and they always take time to surprise people who love their product with the very latest flavors and news. So, what was waiting for me in my surprise package?
The newest member of the LÄRABAR family – Chocolate Chip Cherry Torte!
Now, I know everyone has their absolute favorite LÄRABAR (mine is Cashew Cookie), but this new flavor honestly almost takes the cake. There are so many great flavors going on in the bar that it is absolutely hard to beat.
This flavor is filled with real cherries and chocolate chips in every bite, making every bite sweeter than the last. It took a lot of resistance to be able to put them away the night I received them to be saved for some after school snacking, which is just what I did today.
I had half the bar before my run, and the other half after – after being chilled in the freezer (the only way to eat a LÄRABAR!), it was so decadent and worth the wait.
Look out for these guys in a store near you soon – I know I will be! Thanks again, LÄRABAR!
Question: What is your favorite snack bar?
Larabar sent me these complimentary bars to try out (without asking for any sort of review), and my opinions are 100% my own.

Larabars are my favorite - especially the chocolate brownie flavor! I’ll definitely look for this flavor. My local co-op has larabars on sale for the next 3 weeks (99 cents!), so I’ve been stocking up while they’re cheaper.
99 cents? That’s such a steal!
I’ve never frozen a larabar before but that sounds like it would be amazing! I can’t wait to try out this new flavor. Cherry + chocolate is pretty much the perfect combo.
It’s the only way I’ll eat them! It’s so good!
yummm! this flavor looks really good. i’ll have to keep a look out next time. my favorite snack bar would have to be kind bars..but larabars come in a close second
I’ve never had a larabar! …Pretty sure this needs to change because EVERYONE says how good they are! I’m just bad at whipping out the cash for them! They always sound so tasty though!!!
Are you for real?!?!
Yes, I’m for real. Sad, isn’t it….. Don’t feel too bad for me, I’ve tried to make my own from other bloggers recipes. But I’m pretty sure I need to give this a try. Especially since Chelsey said
That flavour sounds AMAZING!! I’m so jealous!! Thinking of going back to the States JUST so I can get one of those!
My fave bars are ALL the Clif/Luna bars, especially the Clif Z bars!! They are sooo good!
Yum, I love Larabars - my favourite is the Cocoa flavoured one (brown package) and that’s pretty much the only one I eat, not because I don’t like the others but because I get stuck in a boring rut that way. So I need to try to change up my flavours; thanks!
Oh and I’m particularly partial to Luna Bar’s Nutz Over Chocolate flavour too…mm, that one is like a candy bar to me (peanut butter + chocolate - hello??)
I could SO use one of those right now, ahhhhhhh after this day, I need one of those and a glass of wine : )
xo <3
Oo I’ll come have a glass of wine with you!
That flavor sounds amazing!
Omg I’ve been DYINGG to try this new flavour - chocolate + cherry (aka, the star of my favourite Larabar, Cherry Pie) = foodgasm! It’s funny you eat them frozen, because my favourite way to eat Larabars is piping hot straight out of the microwave! Blueberry Muffin out of the microwave tastes JUST like a real muffin
As for my favourite snack bar, Larabar probably tops the list, along with Bumblebars Elevate Me! bars - all natural, all delicious

I’ve never had a Bumblebar! Are they GF?
Yes! They’re made mostly out of sesame seeds, but are vegan and gluten free
izzy
I’ll have to check them out - thanks!
Ooo! Can’t wait to try the new flavor! My stand-by is the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip, but I recently tried Banana Bread for the first time. I would not be able to tell the difference in a blind taste test! Ah-mazing.
That sounds like a great flavour!
I’ve yet to find any good nut-free snack bars, so my favourites are homemade ones.
Have you had any enjoy life ones? They make great sunflower seed butter bars!
I have never tried one of the chocolate flavors, but the ones I ave tried were the bomb! I love the simple but tasty ingredients in them, plus I can always find them on sale so I never pay more than $1 for a bar - score!
I wish I could get on the Larabar mailing list and find surprises at my doorstep
Bag lady..haha! Girl I am the same way when Im leaving the house…so many bags for all the diff things I have to do AND then skylar’s bags too!
Oh geez - when I have kids I don’t think I’ll be able to carry all the bags!
Larabars are great! I would have never though of trying them frozen! My favorite snack bar is the Carob Chip Perfect Foods Bar!
Mmmm, love larabars. Their peanut-butter chocolate chip flavor is like crack to me.
I like both Larabars & Cliff bars. I’ve never tried them frozen though, so I’ll have to see what that’s all about!
Um it’s about how delicious it is. For real.
I love larabars. I really want to try this one! I’m also dying to try the peppermint
Mmm!
Clif-Z bars are my favorite! They’re meant for kids, but I love the flavors!
I buy those for the Husband all the time! They’re so much cheaper!
I can’t wait to try these! My favorite snack on the go is usually fruit. Apples are topping the list right now.
I especially like Larabars because they pronounce my name correctly! Ha! I should def be a paid spokesperson, as in: “I, Lara, approve the use of my name on these yummy Larabars!” Perfect…
But the chocolate chip cookie dough one is THE BEST warmed up! Gooey chocolate, yum.
mmmm that flavor sounds so good! I love cherry! Right now I’m obsessed with the coconut cream pie one
my favorite bar is carrot cake clif. i know some think they are overly sweet, but i absolutely LOVE them. will definitely try this new larabar… i have never frozen them, though. good idea!
Lol I want Lara bar to send me bars!! I’ve actually only tried Apple Pie, I just liked it so much I haven’t branched out!
Apple Pie is my favorite…eaten with vanilla bean ice cream. Half good for you, half bad for you. All tasty.
I say ice cream is still good for you! Think of all taht calcium!
I came home to this very package the other day! I agree, this flavor is amazing. I can’t believe I have bars left! And the pin is cute too. I haven’t tried freezing them, but now it’s on my agenda
Mmm, so glad to know it’s a good one! There are very few (maybe just the lemon) flavor that I don’t like. What a good surprise!
I’ve actually never had the lemon one - I’m not much of a lemon girl.
I can’t wait to try the new flavour! I lovee the apple pie, banana bread and cinnamon roll
I don’t know how I never knew to freeze a Larabar but the idea of a chilled Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough bar sounds amazing right now! Now if only they had a pumpkin spice one for the fall….
How GREAT would that be!?
Mmm I love Larabars. My favorite had been cashew cookie, but I recently discovered chocolate chip brownie and fell in love
Love frozen Larabars-> so much more decadent! Their coconut cream pie, pecan pie, and cashew cookies are my favorite flavors! So freakin’ delicious!
My favorite snack bar is of couse larabar! I love cashew cookie
, peanut butter cookie, and chocolate coconut chew! yum!
I try not to have snack bars too often but I love the Clif-Z bars even though they’re for kids!!
I cannot wait to get my hands on that new lara bar flavor. Sounds like something I would love!
I’m weary of the fruit flavored L-bars, but I think I might be able to tolerate it if there was also chocolate chips in there!
I am going home to put my Lara bar in the freezer.
I cannot wait to try the new flavor! I love the chocolate coconut, pecan pie, coconut cream pie, chocolate chip brownie, and pretty much all other lara bars!
Lara bars are my favorite especially since I’m gluten free. My favorite is the peanut butter cookie. Yum
Yumm, I love cholates and cherries together. Black forest
Yum frozen larabars sound like an AMAZING idea! I’m about to move to England in a few days (yikes!) and I’m really hoping they have larabars over there. I just put three in my freezer now to get ready for the flight over!
Thanks for the idea!
I received the same pack, it absolutely made my Monday!
I have been snacking on the bars all week, perfect healthy way to satisfy a sweet tooth craving
This sounds ridiculous, but I seriously can’t wait to visit USA one day so that I can try all the snacks I read about on blogs!!!
haha I love this!
