Trubar Kids, a US-based plant-based snack bar brand, has introduced a new chocolate banana bread flavour in a collaboration with film producer Illumination, inspired by its Minions film.


The chocolate banana bread bar delivers 8g of plant-based protein and 5g of sugar per bar, aiming to bring the indulgent taste of banana bread to a school lunchbox-friendly snacking format.


It joins Trubar Kids’ existing line-up of flavours, including Fudge-Tastic Brownie, Iced Oatmeal Blast and Pop Goes Confetti, all of which will feature new Minions packaging as part of the collaboration.



Trubar Kids’ bars are all made with 100% plant-based, gluten-free ingredients, and without seed oils or sugar alcohols. The range also contains no peanuts or tree nuts, further catering to free-from demand.


The Minions collaboration products will be available at Sprouts, Albertsons and Safeway stores across the US, with further roll-out of the new offering set for Walmart and Whole Foods this autumn.
