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.

My kids are
12 year old girl
11 year old girl
7 year old girl
My family love healthy, natural and delicious foods and this definitely looks like it ticks all the boxes! YUMM!
My oldest is 6 and a half and I have 2 preschoolers as well.
I’d love to try these because I am always looking for new lunchbox additions and love the idea of only 3 ingredients as well as natural ingredients.
My boys 9 & 11 years will definitely like to try this and might be good as lunch box option 🙂
I have a nine year old daughter, constantly on the hunt for new snacks for school and sports, these look great, would love to try
My daughter is 10. We would love to try Annies Fruit Bars because i struggle to find items to put in my daughters lunches as she is a fussy eater. Love that there is no added sugar, easy to take on the go. Can’t wait to try them on her.
My almost 2 year old toddler is INLOVE with fruit, and we are looking for a more convenient and clean alternative for snacking in the car. These would be perfect to try,
I’d love to try these fruit flat bars. My 5 and a half year old daughter is a big fruit fan and I also remember Annie’s fruit bars from when I was younger! Great to see they’re around still and would love to introduce them to her.
My boy is 4 going on 5 this year and really wanting to trial new things for his lunch and he will give anything a try I will say thay for my boy and he will let you know if its good or nit.
This sounds a perfect way to get extra fruit into my son!
I would love love love to trial these. I have 2 boys (ages 6 & 10) and I am always on the lookout for new lunchbox snacks so they have variety and options which means there is a higher chance of their lunchboxes coming home empty!!! I love that these have no added sugar and are not from concentrates. Plus they sound really yummy!
My 2.5 & 4 year old boys would love these, I’m sure! A clever snack to satisfy their sweet “cake before steak” cravings for sure!
I have an almost 7 year old and a 9 year old. Both are big fruit lovers but not fruit in lunch box lovers! Would love to try these to see if they would work well in a lunch box! Plus, my 7 year old is called Annie, she would think it was pretty cool to have her name on it! lol
My son is 10yo, and I’d love for him to try these. It would be a simple fruit alternative for his school lunches
My kids love trying new snacks and this is one that I am interested in, we try not to give our children snacks in their lunchboxes that are too processed or full of artificial flavours etc. these look like something they would enjoy and I would be happy giving them
I have a VERY fussy 12 year old daughter. These would be perfect for her in her lunch box or for on the way to Tae Kwon do for a quick energy burst.
My son is 19 months old and he has started exploring more varieties of food so this would be a healthier snack I believe and easy on the go too!
My children are aged 6&9 and we recently had a product similar to this which they really loved so I’d love to see if these are just as good or better to add to their lunchboxes!
My daughters are 2 and 10, we are always looking for new, delicious and healthy snacks !
My child is 10 years old and LOVES food!! I would absolutely love for him to trial these as I remember having these as a kid!! They were such a treat back then and I bet they still are!
I have 2 kids – 7 and 11. Always looking for new ideas for the school lunchbox!
Oh Miss 7 and Miss 12 would love to trial these for you!! They longingly look at them in the supermarket, but I can’t justify buying them so this would be awesome. I love the fact they are just fruit. And it’s a special sweet treat that is lunchbox friendly!!
My child is aged 11, I would love for them to try this as getting them to eat fruits is always a mission! Would be interesting to see how they like this
I would get my 8 year old granddaughter to try these.
My Granddaughter is 8 years old, she loves bars made of fruit she says they taste so much better than the bars made with chocolate etc on them
I would love to try these for Mr 2 because he just won’t eat fruit so this may be a way to get fruit into him. I would also love to try them on Miss 6 as she is dairyfree and with these being dairyfree they would be great for in her lunchbox. Thanks 🙂
Would love to trial these, we are always looking for healthy snacks for our miss nearly2
Z cant get enough of fresh fruit. These would be a handy treat to keep on hand in the car/bag for when we are out and about.
We would love to be part of this trial! I think my 8 year old son would really like these and I would like to find more healthy products for his lunch box 😁
We’d love to try these please! My two kids love fruit and I think these would be a huge hit! They would be awesome for lunchboxes aswell! They look nutritious delicious and healthy, and would be a great snack for them anytime of the day too!
We have a 6yo and 8yo who love fruit. Sometimes it’s handy to have something healthy that won’t get spoiled while hiking or going for a walk . These would be great for that
