Huel bar! (more words for no reason)

a little birdy said we’d be getting them before xmas…

“Next week” arrived. Any news?

My stock of twennybars is almost depleted so…

@bogn the bar were made yesterday, they still need to be boxed (Thursday), then shipping on Friday to our fulfilment house. Which means they should be dispatched on Monday for delivery on Tuesday (UK mainland).

But all of this is subject to change, there are quite a few links in the chain where problems can occur. However, things are looking good for my pre-Christmas promise.

@Julian great news! Excited to try the final product. When do you anticipate us being able to order the bars via the website?

Exciting times…

Yes you should be able to pre-order before the end of the day.

Fine!
Question about proteins: is it 15.7g/bar or per 100g? Because the nutritionnal facts label, on the order page, says 15.7 per 100g and 22.6g/bar! :slight_smile:

Check the page again :wink:

Yes it’s 15.7g per bar.

Still the same, here. In fact, the whole chart seems to be broken: there is more quantity of protein, fiber, salt, carbohydrates and fats per bar than per 100g! :slight_smile:

Yeah I made a mistake and left one of the images of them with the wrong way round up! It’s been fixed now, so the nutrition info is on there correctly

A bit disappointed in the price. Even the cheapest option on a subscription comes out to more than double the price of regular Huel. I’ll be sticking with the powder I’m afraid.

Powder is always going to win in terms of price, ingredients and nutritional. It is much easier to produce, not individually made or wrapped, plus it needs extra stuff to bind it together. Having said that the bar is even more convenient.

I understand why it has to be more expensive, but that doesn’t really change the fact that I can’t really justify spending that much money on everyday food. How feasible would it be to produce the bars but not individually wrap them, and just put them all in a foil bag like the powder?

The wrapper is not the main cost unfortunately, it’s the production and distribution, so I really doubt it would save much, if anything.

I’ve just checked the website, can someone please help me clear up which column corresponds to how much/many Huel bars? More macro seems to be in 69g than in 100! :open_mouth:

Also, it might be just me but these two seem quite contradictory to me:

First post, please be kind. :slight_smile:

The price certainly caught me out but maybe my expectations were out. I’ll still buy them though.

Can Huel state the amount of caffeine per bar please?

Also I thought the “human food” line had been ditched now?

@davidvekony welcome to the forum.

Well spotted, the no added sugar thing was copied across from the Huel powder page. I have now remove it. Unfortunately we needed to add glucose syrup to bind the ingredients of bar together. This is downside of bars they need additional ingredients that powder doesn’t.

Yes the column headers were wrong, those have also been fixed.

I’m so psyched about the bars, can’t wait to try them!

One point - Might be pretty pedantic but, on the order page for the bars, the packaging for the bar in the illustrative image has “everything your body needs. nothing more” on it. I’m assuming that this text won’t feature on the actual labels for the bars, given that additional ingredients (that your body doesn’t need) have been added to bind the bar together?

The pictures were just mock ups from a while back. They aren’t indicative of the actual packaging you’re right.

Great, thanks!

I’m going to close this thread and start a new one about the bar. Because this thread is basically about when is the bar going to launch.
