Hello friends!
One of the perks of having a blogging conference in Boulder, Colorado is the proximity to the FLATIRONS. On Saturday morning (after our Gnarly bootcamp and filling breakfast), we’ll be hiking at Chautauqua! Our Official Hike Sponsor for the 2015 Retreat is
DETOUR BAR and we couldn’t think of a more fitting brand to help fuel our bodies for this hike.
We had the chance to ask
Detour a few questions – read on for a glimpse into the brand’s philosophy, product line and ways to get in touch!!
What is your brand’s philosophy?
At Detour, we always start with whey protein – the highest-quality protein available, which contains all the essential amino acids for muscle recovery and repair. And then we focus on making the most delicious bars possible. Our goal is for every Detour bar to prove that you can have it all – a bar that fuels your body for outstanding performance whatever your goals may be, and great taste.
Tell us more about your products.
We broke the protein bar mold with the introduction of Detour Simple. These new bars come in three flavors and are made with clean ingredients and either 10 or 20 grams of protein depending on size. Detour Simple bars are certified gluten free, non-GMO and contain zero artificial ingredients, but have the same, great candy bar taste Detour is known for.
Detour SMART bars are… well, they’re just plain smart. For these bars, we start with organic whole oats, which are certified gluten free, and add some wholesome whey to replenish your body. Just 150 calories each, we sweeten them naturally and ensure that each one provides a good source of fiber. Now that’s just smart.
How will you be involved with Blend 2015?
We are excited to help fuel the Blend hikers with two new products: Coconut Almond Detour SMART bars and Salted Caramel Cookie Dough Detour Simple bars.
