Thank you for the box we received today! We got straight into it and little miss two year old enjoyed eating hers while chilling in the couch watching paw patrol! I may have snuck one in too….. love them!! We have enjoyed trying these snacks out, perfect way to end our Friday 😍
Loved being a part of the trial. My son and I loved these. Such a nice quick snack when we went for a bike ride. Love the flavours, couldn’t pick a favorite. Nice and convenient. My daughter wasn’t really a fan but we made up for it. These didn’t last long in the cupboard. Will definitely be trying to find these in the supermarket as my son will love them in his lunchbox.
Loved both flavours, great for mid afternoon snack. Kids all loved them, would definitely purchase. Thanks so much.
These fruit bars were a hit with my five and eight year old. They are a great and different way to add fruit to the lunchboxes when the kids are bored of the fresh fruit on offer. I like that they are only made of three ingredients and feel better offering this over dried fruit to my children. I personally liked the simple and easy to read packaging however my oldest said the packaging could be more fun, bright and kid friendly.
My 5yo son loved these! He would ask me in the morning when we were making his lunch if he could have ‘one of those special fruit things’ and it was guaranteed to be all gone when he got home. The 12yo boys grunt more than talk but I noticed they soon disappeared from their lunchboxes too!
My family (adults and 8 and 6-year-old children) enjoyed these fruit bars. They definitely feel much healthier compared to other fruit string-type products. Handy to come in a box and the price seems reasonable for a quality product. I have seen them in the supermarket and will buy again. Thanks for the box to trial.

I would love for my 2 year old to try these. It’s always a struggle to get fruit and Veges into him at times and I’m always looking to try new products out and get him tasting new tastes. The flavours sounds yummy and being 100% fruit is a bonus. He has just started back at daycare and these would be a great lunchbox snack for him!
I have 2 boys- 5 and 9 that I would be keen to try these fruit flats. I am always looking for ways to give healthy food especially something lunchbox friendly. One child doesn’t like taking fruit to school and this would make it easier with no need to worry about squashed/bruised fruit!
My daughter is almost 2 years old and I’d love to try this product! My daughter is a crazy snacked and loves all things sweet and fruit. These being gluten and vegan are such a bonus!
I would absolutely love to trial this amazing product for my daughter who is 6. I’m always looking for new treats and snacks and this sounds like a perfect addition to the lunch box. She can be fussy at times so I would truly love to trial it first. Please and thank you! 🥰
My 5 year old would love to try these. He’s a picky eater so these would make a great lunchbox addition. He also has 2 old brothers 7 and 9 who would love a nibble too. Thanks.
Would love to trial your product, in having a snack when enjoying walks around our community for a pick me up.
Have a daughter age 6 and another daughter nearly 5 in March.
my 5yr old daughter would love these! she loves her fruit over her veges so anything different is great to try
I have 2 children 6 and a gluten free 10 yr old, who would love to try this. As a busy Mum to have something that is so easy to pop into a lunchbox of gor the kids to grab as a snack is perfect.
My son is gluten free these would be so handy for him to take when he is out and about or at a Friend’s house.
Not only that they sound delicious.
Wow, I would love to be able to trial this for my 2 kids. I am actively seeking to fill my kids lunchboxes with healthier alternatives and this would be a wim for me if they would like this! I love that this is 100% fruit and less preserved and only has a few ingredients. Thanks for the opportunity!
I would love to try this with my 5 year old son. It’s always difficult to find healthy snacks for lunch boxes
I have 2 kiddies aged 5 and 8 they would love to try these, they love these sort of snacks
I have 4 children 14,12,10 and 7. I’d love for my kids to try Annie’s fruit flats as 2 of the 4 are not fruit lovers so would be interested to see if this form of fruit is something they’d eat. Plus I remember Annie’s from when I was younger and I loved them.
My girls are 6 & 8, they absolutely live fruit but, when out and about having fresh fruit to eat isn’t always practical so I am always looking for healthy snacks that I can just pop in my bag for when those “I’m hungry” moments strike.
Yes would love to give these a try! Always looking for healthy snack for my kids! 2 and 6 year old!!
My twins are 5 and have just started school. I would love to try Annie’s because I am always looking for new lunchbox foods to keep lunchtime interesting.
Miss 5 is a bit adventeurous when it comes to her lunch box. We are always looking for something new to try and these would be great! Shes a fruit fanatic and these would brighten up her lunch box
Yes please! My daughter loves fruit products. We would love to review this new product
My daughter is 5 and I am always looking for new ideas for snacks.
I would love to try these for my 7 year old (and my 4.5yr old would love them too).
We would love to try them as they have no added sugar and no added preserves which makes them healthy and hopefully yummy for school lunches! With 2 at school this year they would be handy to pop into lunchboxes for 2 otherwise fussy eaters.
I have a 5 year old who would love to trial these. He is on the go and anyway to get added fruit in to him easily would be great
My 8 year old is always looking to add new delicious treats to her lunch box
My daughter is 7 and this would be a great way to increase the amount of fruit in her diet. We would love to give them a try
Trying to get my 8 year old to eat more fruit is a mission so these would be great to have for school lunches.
My 5 year old son would love this he’s always asking for more stuff in his lunchbox, and me too always pack the same stuff. Hard to try and make lunches healthy but yummy. Wild love try these.
Would love to try not wild!
I would love to try these for my 5 year old, finding new things to add to their lunch box is a win instead of the same old things. I’m sure he would love both flavours.
Master 5 hates when his fruit gets bruised in his lunchbox, so this would be perfect for him to try as an alternative
My son is 3 next month and I would love a fun healthy way to sneak fruit into his lunchbox! I’m sure he will gobble them up!
My 5 year old would love these- it’s a struggle to get enough fruit in his lunchbox some days so this would do the trick. He’s a massive fan of dried mangoes so think he’d love these.
My children are aged 5 and 6. We would love to be included as reviewers. I’m always looking for ideas for snacks for the kids and these look great.
My 5 year old son would like to try these he loves fruit and would be great new snack to put in his school lunches please
