With increasingly hectic schedules, many Australians seek quick and convenient snack options that can be consumed on the go. Snack bars are portable, easy to eat, and can be stored without refrigeration, making them ideal for busy individuals. Snack bars come in various flavors, textures, and nutritional profiles, catering to diverse dietary preferences and lifestyles. Australian consumers spend more on healthy and convenient snack products due to the country's changing lifestyles, increasing dietary intake, and sports culture.

The trend of 'anytime' snacks is growing in the country, and health-conscious consumers use snack bars as meal replacements. Snack bars' most commonly perceived benefits are their high fiber content, antioxidant components, probiotics, vitamins and minerals, and high-quality protein content. This represents an exciting opportunity for the manufacturers of nutritious snack bars to step in and cater to the demand.

For instance, in 2024, Violet Crumble entered the wellness snacking market by partnering with supplement brand BSC to launch a chocolate protein bar range. These bars are available in two flavors, Chocolate Honeycomb and Caramel Honeycomb; each 55g bar has 16g of protein, less than 3g of sugar, and a 4.5 health-star rating.
