Geobars are made by a company called Traidcraft who fights poverty through trade, helping people in developing countries to transform their lives. We're the UK's leading fair trade company. All of their products are fair trade and a good majority are vegan. They kindly sent me a sample of their two new products, the Beetroot Cocoa bars and the Carrot with Stem Ginger bars. Now I know what you are thinking: 'vegetables don't belong in cereal bars!' But oh my goodness, it works perfectly.
Beetroot Cocoa Bar
Now, the beetroot flavour her is very subtle and adds a good amount of sweetness to the bar. It wasn't like eating pickled beetroot so worry not, it was more like a slight earthy sweetness that just worked incredibly well. The cocoa was perfect, strong but not overpowering. Overall, a brilliant bar!

Stem Ginger & Carrot Bar
This one had a strong ginger flavour and actually reminded me a lot of ginger bread. The carrot helped to tone down the ginger whilst adding a bit of sweetness to it. It was a nice addition with my usual breakfast of overnight oats! Overall, I enjoyed this bar and the company have been really clever in the way that they have incorporated vegetables into these bars.
