The Verdict

I couldn’t contain my excitement when trying these bars! The first thing that stood out was the bold chocolate flavor — rich and indulgent without being overly sweet. However, I found myself wishing for more caramel to balance the profile, and I couldn’t quite taste the sea salt as much as I’d hoped. While I enjoyed the overall experience, I would have preferred milk chocolate over dark chocolate. That said, I do understand why dark chocolate is a healthier choice, especially for those mindful of sugar intake, like diabetics.

Catalina Crunch has built a reputation for delivering snack options that cater to health-conscious consumers without compromising flavor; this new addition is no exception. Whether you crave the deep, rich chocolate or the promise of caramel and sea salt, it’s worth trying. Will Catalina Crunch's new Sea Salt Caramel Chocolate Cookie Bar become your next favorite treat, or will you explore another snack from their massive lineup? Either way, there's something for everyone to enjoy!
