• What is unique about über?

Über is a unique sweet and salty snack made from whole fruits and nuts. It’s big texture with big taste!

• Why did you name it über? What does it mean?

We wanted a name that matched the extreme texture, taste, and total difference between this bar and our original LÄRABAR. Simply put, über is an experience that is super duper, wicked awesome, and seriously epic.

• Does über contain sugar?

Über does not use any refined sugar. It contains only natural, non-sucrose sweeteners from brown rice syrup, honey, and fruit.

• Is über vegan?

Due to the use of honey, über is not certified as vegan.

• Does über contain soy? What about dairy?

Über bars do not directly contain soy or dairy products or byproducts. However, they are produced in a facility that makes other products that do contain soy and dairy. Because of this we are unable to certify über as “soy free” or “dairy free.”

• Do the dried fruits contain added sugar?

No. Über does not contain any added or refined sugar and the dried fruits are unsweetened. The only sugar in the bars comes naturally from fruit, brown rice syrup, and honey.

• What makes up brown rice syrup? Why do you use it?

Brown rice syrup, also known as “rice syrup,” is a natural sweetener that comes from the starch of brown rice. The combination of cooked rice and natural enzymes allows the starches to break down to produce a sweetened liquid. The liquid is then filtered and excess water is evaporated to thicken it. Brown rice syrup is used in über as a naturally sweetened binder to hold the ingredients together and keep the bar firm.

• What is the shelf life of an über bar?

The shelf life of an über bar is 9 months.

• Who does your Kosher certification on these bars?

• Do über bars melt? Do they freeze?

When exposed to extreme heat, über will become softer. As the heat rises, the binding/syrup will become less tight and the ingredients will potentially break apart. When frozen, über will not freeze all the way through. That said, the Roasted Nut Roll flavor will become more brittle and harder than the other flavors. Once the bar has reached room temperature, it will return to its normal consistency.

• What is the “roasting” process for the nuts in Roasted Nut Roll?

All of the nuts are dry-roasted and no oil is added. Depending on the type of nut, our vendors use different processes. More detailed information is confidential and cannot be shared.
