Bars to enjoy whilst walking together as a family

The energy bites and the granola mix are all good but with them being in balls and lose if you are packing light then they are not always very easy to store. However, Bars can be stacked wrapped in paper and will take up less room, make less mess when eaten and still provide loads of energy for the family when you head of hiking together.
