A Day of Quest!!

Hello everyone!

How has your week been? I hope it has been awesome in every possible way!

Today we are going to be reviewing two of Quest's amazing products. We were so excited to get the opportunity to review Quest's products- we've heard soooo much about them, that who wouldn't be?


To start off, every week we will be posting a review of the products Quest sent us. Make sure you keep updated with the newest review! Before we begin... thank you so much, Quest, for sending us your delicious, protein bars, we love them!


~White Chocolate Raspberry~


The White Chocolate Raspberry Quest bar was surprisingly a delicious, berry-flavored protein bar that was highly enjoyable and full of bursting flavor! I wasn't sure if I would enjoy it, because one of my co-workers from Nutrisimo had tried out the bar herself and was not too pleased. Maybe it was like that for a number of reasons: because she never microwaved it, and because she was hoping to be wowed. 

I for one can definitely say that microwaving the Quest bars for about 20 seconds is essential. I've tasted them before they were warmed, and they aren't as amazing as they are claimed to be. Now if you do microwave them, it's a whole different story! The Quest bars instantly have a popping flavor that leaves you with a sensational flavor in your mouth :) 



So back to the bar- I did very much enjoy the White Chocolate Raspberry Quest bar! It had a distinct flavor that was a mixture of warm white chocolate chunks and a fresh, berry flavor. So to speak, it was unique in every way!! I know that this is one of my favorite Quest bars that I have tasted so far. :)

More than the great flavor of the White Chocolate Raspberry protein bar, I really loved the fact that it is a perfect, healthy snack to grab whether you're on-the-go or just at home. It is full of good protein and is a filling protein bar that will satisfy you for a few hours. Some protein bars that I have tried either don't hold me over at all, but rather make me feel even hungrier. 

 I greatly appreciated that Quest took the time to create a protein bar that can be used in many different ways! This bar can be used in cookies, pancakes, waffles, and many more creative recipes. :)  
If you follow Cooking Clean with Quest, than I'm sure you'll be familiar with this yummy cookie recipe. Try it out, and leave a comment below with your thoughts! 


Since this Quest bars was amazing, it is so hard to say what could be improved. If I could change one thing, I would most likely remove the sucralose content in this specific bar. It doesn't bother me very much, but if I could make them an even cleaner, better-for-you type of bar I wouldn't add it. Otherwise, this bar was delicious!

To purchase this bar, you can head over to Amazon using this link:

~Double Chocolate Chunk~


The Double Chocolate Chunk Quest bar is a flavor-packed bar. There really is no other way to say it! If you are someone who enjoys eating a candy bar once in a while, then you'll be very pleased. If you are a chocolate liker, you will be in for a treat. But wait... if you are a chocolate lover, this is your dream come true! 

I like chocolate. A lot. (I probably should say love.) But I don't eat it very often, so when I saw that this protein bar was included in the box, I instantly had my eye on it. :) Let's just say, that Quest pleasantly surprised me again. Would you like to know why? Good!

1. Because this bar is literally junk-free! I was thrilled that this protein bar contains NO sucralose or any type of not-good-for-you sweetener. Exciting, right?

2. Because this bar is like your best friend. ;)

3. Because it is truly a healthy snack (or whatever you want it to be) like it says!

Quest always creates a unique protein bar that is just right for everyone. I really appreciate that they take the time to make each bar lovable for everyone. Sometimes companies try to create an amazing product, but they limit it to only people who like this or that. Rather, Quest invents each flavored bar for everyone. That's called love!



The Double Chocolate Chunk protein bar makes a great go-to snack, the perfect ingredient to add to your latest cooking adventure, and also a wonderful bar that is great for athletes to eat before or after they workout. I also would recommend purchasing these bars if you are someone trying to lose some weight, because they are very filling which makes you eat less frequently. Also, if you just randomly get a sweet tooth but don't want to eat something that is pretty much junk, this Quest bar definitely will satisfy you!! And now for Quest's recipe...


Wait, that was Quest's recipe, but we've got a surprise for you as well! Nutrisimo has created their own Double Chocolate Chunk recipe, too :) Are you excited to try it? Awesome!! Well, here we go...

~Double Chocolate Chunk Recipe~

1.5 cup of Rice Crispies cereal

  1. This is a brilliant idea! I'm not much of a fan of the texture of Quest bars so this is a great use of them for me! I also find a whole one a bit much so a great way of spreading it out a bit. Quest Bars is Rank #1 at https://thefitstrong.com/best-tasting-protein-bars-pure/
