Carman’s has launched a new range of oat bars in Woolworths stores around the country, with a 4.5 health star rating, less than 4g of sugar and no nuts.

The Aussie Oat Bars range is designed for school lunchboxes as a source of fibre, with all the varieties containing no artificial colours or flavours.

“I’m particularly excited about this launch, because people have been wanting lunchbox friendly Carman’s muesli bars, and in child-friendly sizes, for years. We just wanted to get them absolutely right,” said Carman’s founder Carolyn Creswell.

The new range also comes with a customisable wrapper, where parents can write personalised, short messages on pack.

Aussie Oat Bars come in four varieties – Strawbs & Cream, Brownie with Choc, Apple Pie & Custard, and Choc Caramel – and are now available in Woolworths for RRP $5.00.
