Start with protein per bar and the share of the bar’s energy that comes from protein, rather than relying on the word “protein” in its name. Nature Valley Protein Peanut & Chocolate is the clearest documented fit here for a UK high-protein claim; TREK Biscoff and nākd. Cocoa Hazelnut offer different plant-based snacks, but their protein, sugars and allergen profiles call for a separate comparison. Check the exact flavour, pack and live stock before completing an online grocery order.
Check more than the protein grams on the front of the pack. UK claim guidance sets a condition based on protein’s share of total energy; Nature Valley Protein Peanut & Chocolate is the documented example here whose stated panel meets it. Check the current pack if that claim is decisive for your order.
TREK Biscoff is listed as vegan but contains gluten and soya. nākd. Cocoa Hazelnut is listed as vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free but contains peanuts and hazelnuts. Those descriptions apply to the named bars, not every flavour from either brand.
For work, travel or between meals, compare the portion you will actually eat alongside sugars, saturates, fibre and allergens. Confirm that the precise flavour and pack can be added to your delivery basket, then read the label on arrival in case product information has changed.
Choose the claim or dietary requirement that matters to you first, then compare the nutrition of the actual bar size and check the precise listing before ordering.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Protein | Read protein per bar, not just per 100g. For a UK “high protein” claim, GOV.UK guidance and the applicable claim condition require at least 20% of the food’s energy to come from protein. | I want a bar that meets the high-protein claim condition, rather than one that simply has “protein” in its name. |
| Whole-bar nutrition | Compare energy, total sugars, saturates and salt per bar. Use the per-100g panel to compare bars of different sizes; check fibre where it is listed. The NHS explains these two ways of reading pre-packed food labels. | A smaller oat snack and a larger flapjack may serve different occasions, so I want to see what the portion I will eat contains. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the named flavour’s ingredients, declared allergens and “may contain” wording. Check vegan, gluten-free or dairy-free statements on that product rather than extending them across a range. | My dietary exclusions matter more than the general type of bar: a vegan product can still contain soya or nuts. |
| Online order | Confirm the exact flavour and pack size in your basket, and check availability for your delivery slot. Compare the listing with the delivered pack’s ingredients and nutrition. | I do not want to choose a multipack from a product page only to find that the pack or its details differ when I place or receive the order. |
A protein quantity alone does not establish the UK high-protein claim condition. The documented Nature Valley Peanut & Chocolate panel meets the energy-share condition, while the stated panels for TREK Biscoff and nākd. Cocoa Hazelnut do not.
If the claim matters to you, check the current bar’s protein and energy figures together, or look for the claim on the precise product label.
Bars described as protein snacks can differ in portion size, sugars and saturates. “No added sugar” also describes added ingredients, not the amount of total sugars in the bar.
Read per-bar values for the portion you plan to eat, then use per-100g figures when comparing differently sized bars.
Vegan and gluten-free describe particular attributes; neither means allergen-free. The named TREK and nākd. bars have different declared allergens and precautionary wording.
Check the current ingredients and allergen information for the exact flavour, including on repeat orders.
A visible grocery product page does not guarantee that its pack is available for your delivery slot. Ingredients and nutrition information can also change.
Check the basket’s live availability and pack size before checkout, and read the delivered label before relying on earlier product details.
These distinctions concern the named bars, not every product made by each brand.

This listing is for four 60g Oreo Flavour bars. To compare it with the smaller bars above, read both the per-bar and per-100g nutrition figures, and check the precise flavour’s ingredients and allergens.

A twelve-bar pack for shoppers considering the named Double Chocolate flavour. Check its per-bar nutrition and allergen information before comparing it with other flavours or committing to the larger pack.

This is the Golden Caramel flavour in a twelve-pack of 50g bars. Compare its own nutrition and ingredients with Double Chocolate rather than assuming the two flavours have identical labels.
A UK high-protein claim requires at least 20% of the food’s energy value to come from protein, as set out in GOV.UK food-claim guidance and the applicable claim condition. Several grams of protein per bar do not, by themselves, establish that the bar meets it.
Use per-bar figures to see what the portion you will eat contains, then compare per-100g figures across different bar sizes. The NHS explains that pre-packed nutrition labels show energy and key nutrients per 100g, with per-portion information sometimes included.
No. The documented nākd. Cocoa Hazelnut bar is described as having no added sugar while listing 13g total sugars per 45g bar, described as naturally occurring. Read the total-sugars figure when comparing it with another bar.
Check the current label for the exact flavour. The named Nature Valley bar contains peanuts, soya and milk; TREK Biscoff contains gluten and soya and may contain peanuts, nuts and milk; and nākd. Cocoa Hazelnut contains peanuts and hazelnuts and may contain soya or other nuts.
Use the listing to choose and check the basket, but read the pack you receive before relying on its ingredients, allergens or nutrition. Product details can change, and a visible listing does not confirm availability for your delivery slot.
