RedCon1 MRE Bar is a series of protein bars inspired by popular types of cakes and desserts - and it is not only about adding a specific flavor to a uniform protein mass, but also about reproducing the consistency of the dough as closely as possible. In our opinion, there are no other bars on the market with such a complex and refined consistency. RedCon1 MRE Bar German Chocolate Cake is a bar inspired by chocolate cake.
Contrary to what you might think, German Chocolate Cake has nothing to do with the country of Germany on the map. German Chocolate Cake is a multi-layered chocolate cake, basically a cake, filled and sprinkled with coconut-pecan frosting. Originating in the United States, the formula owes its name to the Anglo-American chocolate manufacturer Samuel German, who developed a dark baking chocolate recipe, which was then used in a cake recipe. So the cake is not German by nationality, and the taste means a combination of chocolate cake and coconut icing. The cake is made of unique chocolate - sweet and dark, it also has a unique coating, because instead of traditional cream or meringue, the cake is covered with a cream in the form of a custard chocolate confectionery mass, which consists of egg yolks and condensed milk and should always contain pecan nuts and coconut, sometimes chocolate frosting and Maraschino cherries are added to the sides of the cake. In a word: GREAT!
RedCon1 MRE Bar German Chocolate Cake is over 10% larger than the average protein bar (67g). After unpacking, we see a large bar, which is covered with a milk chocolate topping - this glaze is really very thick, with a strong milk-cocoa flavor, very delicious and sweet. After cutting, the bar is extremely appetizing - in real life it looks better than on the packaging! The taste of the bar has large pieces of almonds and nuts, they crunch nicely and contrast with the mass - the mass itself is neither soft, nor hard, nor pulling, it is the background for almonds, glaze. The bar is very filling, tasty, and the taste is natural and leaves no sweetening aftertaste. 260kcal well spent!
MRE Bar is not a bar - it's a bar meal. The days of polyols, overloading with dry whey protein are long gone, MRE bars contain only 'real food'. The MRE bar has a modest 6g of sugar in a healthy proportion to 29g of carbohydrate and 20g of protein, which is balanced with 9g of fat. These macro numbers are ideal as a fuel to train without drastically spiking insulin levels and achieving the best results. On the other hand, 260kcal is the perfect snack-sized meal on the go or before training, which is loaded with the right nutrients from real food and will not make you feel oversaturated, and at the same time will satisfy both hunger and irresistible craving for 'something sweet'.
RedCon1 is a relatively young American brand that has gained a lot of devoted fans by basing its products on ingredients known as real food - real food. In RedCon1 products you will not find excess polyols or aspartame, instead you will find the highest-quality sources of protein and carbohydrates that other manufacturers do not reach for.
At a time when producers compete in placing bars on the packaging so idealized and tweaked in bar visualization programs that after opening the package you can have doubts whether there has been a mistake, it is impossible to underestimate RedCon1's modest approach to the graphic design - in black and white. the golden, even dark, packaging of the bar presents a picture of the content in a very modest scope - fortunately, the bar not only looks much better than you might think from the packaging, but also tastes brilliant!
Of course, it is not the appearance that is the most important - you are looking for the best protein bar to nourish and saturate your body with valuable ingredients that will keep up with the pace of the effort you put into each training. When it comes to the composition, it is difficult to find a bar with an equally high composition, both in terms of proteins and carbohydrates.
Each bar in the series contains at least 5 different types of proteins, the basis of which is:
The protein formula composed in this way ensures a complete amino acid structure and the highest quality of digestible proteins. If you are concerned that beef or salmon protein may be felt in the taste of the bar - we assure you that it is not! The formula of the isolate separates protein amino acids from other macro-nutrients that are the flavor carrier.
When it comes to taste - we could not believe that such a good bar contains something other than traditional whey protein! There are no strange notes in the taste, despite the fact that it contains salmon, chicken and beef proteins!
These filling bars can be a meal replacement, so in addition to protein, you will find in them valuable nut fats and MCT medium-chain triglycerides, as well as a complex carbohydrate complex consisting of, depending on the taste, gluten-free oatmeal, sweet potatoes appreciated in the sports community and dried fruit. . An important component of the carbohydrate formula is Asian yam rhizome meal - it is a starch-rich tuber with a weight of up to 60 kg with pro-health, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, known to local folk medicine as a substance supporting the expansion of blood vessels and regulating the functioning of the digestive system by improving the functioning of the liver.
Each of the solid bars of the MRE Bar series provides a filling 260kcal, which consists of 20g of protein, about 25g of carbohydrates, up to 5g of fiber and 9g of fat. Such proportions of macro-nutrients guarantee satiety for a long time, provide the muscles with protein building blocks after training and the possibility of rebuilding the reserves of used muscle glycogen.
