Product Review: Rise Energy+ Bar
Product Name: Rise Bar
Product Flavors (Energy+ Line): Blueberry Coconut, Apricot Goji, Coconut Acai, Cherry Almond, Raspberry Pomegranate
Website: https://www.risebar.com
About Rise Bar: The line of bars formerly known as Prana/Boomi recently underwent a rebrand! The revamped Rise Bars are made from antioxidant-rich fruits and nutrient-dense nuts to create a wholesome, convenient snack option.
Although Rise Bar makes three product lines, we reviewed only the vegan, Energy+ flavors. The Energy+ line is designed to provide a unique combination of quick and sustained energy. Each of the five flavors has a short list of ingredients, including different combinations of dried fruit, nuts and brown rice/tapioca syrup. This line of bars is also:
- Vegan
- Gluten-free
- 100% organic
- Non-GMO
- Peanut, soy and dairy-free
- Preservative-free
- Kosher
The One Green Planet Verdict: Although the five bars in this line have a relatively similar list of ingredients, they actually vary quite a bit in taste and texture! Of the bars, our three favorites were:
- Blueberry Coconut – This bar has a moist, chewy texture and an amazing (and sweet) coconut flavor. Definitely the best of the bunch!
- Apricot Goji – This bar also has a moist, chewy texture and a pleasant, mild cashew flavor. The cashews give it a nice crunch.
- Coconut Acai – This bar has a very mild flavor (without a strong coconut presence) and a nice crunch from the almonds and amaranth.
CONTEST DETAILS: (CLOSED)

I am obsessed with protein and energy bars. It’s all I eat for lunch, everyday! I’m always looking for different varieties and options. Please send me some! I will surely leave a review.
I want these bars because I have already tried them and enjoyed the flavor a lot but now I want my husband to try it for a week. If you send me this pack, he will have enough for the whole week and will be hooked :-)
These bars look delicious! Can’t wait to try and share them with my family. That’s all I got.
