Product Information

The macros are nothing to complain about – 195 kcal, 7.3g fat, 11.1g carbs, 21.2g protein – and the protein comes from whey, but there are much better flavours out there. Chocolate Orange 9/10. It’s one of the higher calorie bars at 217kcal, but for this you get 9.3g fat, 15g carbs, just 1.5g sugar, and 20g protein. As in the Chocolate Peanut Butter flavour, collagen hydrolysate features on the ingredients list, but as with all Fulfil’s bars you are getting 30% of your vitamin RDA.

It has to be said that initially this bar is quite tough, the centre being a little chewier than other Fulfil flavours. It’s not unpleasant by any means, and the caramel layer offsets it a little, but I do prefer the softer nougat-y core of the other bars. Whilst all this is laudable, it has to taste good too – otherwise you may as well pop some vitamins and be done with it. On the whole I’m pretty impressed by Fulfil, especially the Chocolate Salted Caramel and Lemon Zinger flavours.All in all a great bar, especially if you’re a woosie not a fan of dark chocolate. Chocolate Caramel & Cookie Dough It’s fair to say Fulfil has been hit and miss on its peanut flavours so far. I wasn’t thrilled by the Peanut & Caramel bar but I did love the chocolate Peanut Butter, so this could really go either way.

Irish brand ‘Fulfil’ have set out to change this, offering a protein bar with added vitamins that’s high in fibre and low in calories. Each bar has 9 added vitamins, including Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Thiamine and Folic Acid. The best part is definitely the caramel layer. It’s rich and deep, there’s lots of it and, crucially, it blends so well with the white chocolate. The caramel doesn’t even come to the bar’s rescue, being too rich to counter the depth of the dark chocolate. Coming soon. Stay tuned… Chocolate Salted Caramel 10/10. Apologies for the ugly bandages – broken fingers don’t fit the aesthetic…This bar weighs in at 60g, 5g more than Fulfil’s standard 55g, explained by the more dense and chewy core. The macros are still stellar with 207 kcal, 8.4g fat, 11.7g carbs, 2.1g sugar, and 20.6g protein. There’s also a hefty 11.2g fibre in there and the protein comes from milk. I was actually really disappointed by the flavour and texture of this bar – it’s not good – and I haven’t had it again since. The macros are good, the vitamins are a nice addition, but you’re still better off popping a multi-vitamin and going elsewhere for your protein fix. Dark Chocolate & Mint Triple Chocolate’ is one thing, ‘Triple Chocolate Deluxe‘ is quite another. I expected big (deluxe?) things… Cookie dough is slightly salty, it’s soft and chewy and it has chocolate chunks in it. Surely the innovators at Fulfil have experienced the pure joy that is eating cookie dough straight from the mixing bowl. I suspect ‘cookie dough’ has been used as a buzz word to make this bar sound more exciting. The macros are solid – 210 kcal, 9.7g fat, 15g carbs, 1.9g sugar, 20g protein – and, even though the added ‘palm fat’ might be an issue for some, you are getting 100% of your vitamin RDA. Once again Fulfil have smashed it with this one.

Flavour-wise, each individual element is great. The caramel is rich and deep and the dark chocolate hits the spot with its blend of sweet bitterness. The macros for each flavour varies slightly, ranging between 180-220 calories, 15-20g carbs and 8-10g fat, but all have at least 20g protein and under 3g sugar. If you told me this was a regular chocolate bar I’d have no problems believing you. I definitely prefer it to Grenade’s Peanut Nutter. Dark Chocolate Salted Caramel – 6/10In my family, the bounty celebrations are always the ones left at the bottom of the tub. They stay there, undisturbed, until someone can be bothered to throw them away. I’ll admit I hoped for more chocolate than coconut with this one… The centre is soft and chewier than expected, probably because there’s real coconut in it. The coconut flavour is perfect – it’s not artificial or overpowering. It’s sweet and creamy, and blends well with the hint of chocolate from the coating. Whilst the ingredients list is pretty inoffensive, some might take issue with the milk protein and collagen hydrolysate blend, but you are getting 30% of your vitamin RDA and the macros are great – 212 calories, 20g protein, 9.5g fat (higher than usual because of the peanuts), and 15g carbs. Macros: 197 calories, 15g carbs, 20g protein and 8g fat. Available in both 55g and 40g. Chocolate Hazelnut Whip 9/10.
