Overview
This Choc Choc Chip bar sits in a range of impressively consistent, high-protein options from Fibre Boost. It lands almost identically to the brand's Choc Malt version, which has just 1.0g more protein per 100g and the same near-zero sugar content. This pattern of high performance is the brand's signature. The numbers put this bar well ahead of the typical protein snack we see. With 34.8g of protein and just 0.4g of sugar per 100g, it easily clears the category averages of 27g for protein and 10.6g for sugar. It's a gap that signals a clear focus on function over indulgence, using whey and milk proteins to do the heavy lifting rather than leaning on fillers. That functional approach is built on a short list of nine ingredients. There are no artificial sweeteners, colours or preservatives, with the bar instead relying on a corn-based prebiotic fibre, cocoa, almonds and stevia for its structure and flavour. The "cold pressed" method also explains the dense, chewy texture common to the range, a world away from the baked, cookie-style snacks elsewhere in the aisle. We see this bar as a purpose-built tool for a specific job. It's a portable, no-fuss protein source for someone tracking their macros closely, who needs a reliable option for their gym bag or desk drawer without a punishing sugar or calorie cost.
Protein Score: 10.0/10
This is a genuine protein bar, not a snack with a sprinkle of protein. The 20.9g of protein per 60g serve sits at the top end of the market, putting it in the same league as dedicated recovery products and earning a 10/10 for its protein density. The efficiency is the difference, delivering 14.3g of protein for every 100 calories consumed. Against the broader snack category, it's not a fair fight. This bar clears the typical product we test, landing well above the category average for its protein score. It delivers a protein load you'd expect from a proper post-workout bar, not the 2-5 grams you might find in a standard muesli bar from the supermarket. This makes it a go-to for anyone who reads the nutrition panel first. If your goal is a meaningful protein top-up without wasted calories, this bar is built for the job. It's a strong performer for post-gym recovery or bridging a long gap between meals.
Clean Score: 9.9/10
The only additive here is a natural sweetener, steviol glycosides, derived from the stevia plant. This, combined with a short list of just nine ingredients, results in a near-perfect 9.8/10 Clean Score. It's a clean profile for a packaged snack, especially when the category average is 22 ingredients per product. There are no artificial sweeteners, colours, preservatives, or emulsifiers. The formulation is direct: protein isolates, prebiotic fibre, cocoa, almonds, and natural flavour. This "less is more" approach is what separates it from many highly processed bars that rely on a long list of additives to achieve taste, texture, and shelf stability. For the ingredient-conscious shopper, this is a huge plus. The trade-off for such a clean deck is a dense, chewy texture that comes from its cold-pressed method and high fibre content. It's a functional feel that won't be for everyone, but it's an honest outcome of its simple, effective formulation.

Frequently asked questions
- Is this bar better for pre- or post-workout?
- It's best suited for post-workout recovery. The 20.9 grams of protein per bar is a significant serve, ideal for helping muscle repair after exercise. While you could eat it beforehand, the high protein and fibre content can feel heavy during a workout. For pre-workout fuel, you might prefer something with more simple carbohydrates. We'd keep this one in the gym bag for straight after your session.
- Will this bar actually keep me full?
- Yes, in our view it's a very filling snack. The combination of high protein (20.9g) and extremely high fibre (over 40g per 100g) is designed for satiety. Both ingredients are known to be slow-digesting, which helps you feel fuller for longer compared to a sugary or low-fibre snack. For 146 calories, it offers a substantial, chewy snack that should comfortably bridge the gap between meals.
- How does this Choc Choc Chip flavour compare to others in the Fibre Boost range?
- It has one of the strongest nutritional profiles in a very consistent lineup. When compared to the brand's Choc Malt flavour, this Choc Choc Chip version has 1.0g less protein per 100g but the exact same near-zero sugar content. Most bars in the range offer a similar high-protein, low-sugar promise, so the choice often comes down to flavour preference rather than a major nutritional trade-off. We think it performs right at the top of the range.
- What does 'cold pressed' mean for a protein bar?
- 'Cold pressed' means the ingredients are blended and pressed together without using heat. This method helps retain the nutritional integrity of the ingredients, particularly the protein. It also results in a distinct texture - typically denser and chewier than a baked bar that might be lighter or more crumbly. It signals a less processed approach to manufacturing. We see it as a positive sign for ingredient quality.'.
- Can I eat this bar every day?
- Yes, this bar's nutritional profile makes it suitable as a daily snack for most people. With almost no sugar and a very low sodium count, it avoids the pitfalls of more indulgent snacks. The main thing to be mindful of is the very high fibre content, which may cause digestive discomfort for some if you're not used to it. If it fits your daily protein and calorie goals, we'd consider it a solid daily option.
