Four certified organic ingredients, handmade in Byron Bay. Caffeine free, no added sugar, no preservatives, no emulsifiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMaple Moon’s Peppermint Buckwheat Crisp bar is the most textural of the range. Where the Coconut \u0026amp; Goji bar is smooth with occasional fruit pieces, this one has activated buckwheat throughout - small, crunchy, popcorn-like pieces that give the bar a satisfying crisp against the smooth carob base. The peppermint oil (\u0026lt;1%) hits first as a clean, cool freshness that lingers, then the carob and buckwheat come through underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCarob is naturally sweet and caffeine-free - a genuine chocolate alternative rather than a chocolate substitute, with its own mild, earthy, slightly caramel character. The cacao butter provides the smooth, melt-in-mouth texture without any caffeine compounds from cacao solids. The activated buckwheat has been soaked and dried to remove enzyme inhibitors, making it easier to digest and giving it a lighter, crispier texture than raw buckwheat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eHandmade and hand-packaged in Byron Bay by Maple Moon, a local carob bar brand founded by Carli as a stimulant-free nighttime treat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"5\"\u003eWhy people love it\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour certified organic ingredients: carob powder, cacao butter, activated buckwheat, pure peppermint oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActivated buckwheat throughout for crunch - the crispiest texture in the Maple Moon range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePure peppermint oil for a clean, cool, refreshing flavour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNaturally sweet - no added sugar, no refined sweeteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaffeine free - no stimulants from cacao solids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo preservatives, no stabilisers, no emulsifiers, no artificial additives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVegan, gluten free, dairy free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandmade and hand-packaged in Byron Bay by Maple Moon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90g bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"5\"\u003eHow to enjoy it\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEat at room temperature for the best texture - the bar softens slightly as it warms in your hands.
