Australian made and owned company Carman’s, in collaboration with St. Ali, has launched a new Dark Choc Espresso Nut Bar.

Inspired by Melbourne’s coffee culture, Carman’s has teamed up with St. Ali, to deliver a new on-the-go snack.

The bar uses St Ali’s “Wide Awake” ground espresso coffee beans, mixed through roasted nuts and seeds and topped with a dark choc drizzle for a natural energy boost.

Carman’s founder, Carolyn Creswell said it was a thrill to collaborate with St. Ali.

“As a born and bred Melburnian, coffee has always been important to me, so it's a thrill for me to collaborate with the most- iconic Melbourne Coffee brand, St. Ali. We are very happy with the product we have been able to create together,” said Creswell.

Carman's Dark Choc Espresso Nut Bar is available in the muesli bar aisle at Woolworths & Coles.
