My friends know that I used to be a competitive figure skater, so when one of them told me about vegan snacks created by a former ballerina, I couldn’t wait to try them!   Have you heard of Barre, real food bars? Created by Julia Erickson, a former ballerina, all Barre bars are vegan, made from real food, and scrumptiously yummy!

These vegan barres are high in Omega-3s and made without any refined sugar.  I LOVE  that they’re made from real food: you can identify and pronounce all of the ingredients!   Check out the label for the Cinnamon Pirouette Barre: dates, walnuts, pecans, agave nectar, hemp seed, rolled oats, hemp protein, ground flax seed,brown rice protein, vanilla, cinnamon, sea salt, peanuts.  Just writing this post brings back the sweet cinnamon-y goodness, and makes me want to spin in my chair.  Wheeeeee!

I loved all three flavors: Black Swan Chocolate Berry, Pirouette Cinnamon Pecan, and Ballerina Spirulina.  Right now Barre is available at over 130 stores across the US.  Barre has a nice store locator and map that shows (by zip code) which studios and shops carry their products.

Enjoy!
