HighKey launches low-sugar caramel, peanut butter bars

HighKey is shaking up the chocolate aisle with new treats that are choc-full of caramel, not sugar. 

Debuting exclusively online, HighKey’s Caramel Filled Bar and Chocolaty Stix are coated in a milk chocolate-style coating and are low sugar, low carb, free of grains and gluten, and made with clean ingredients. 

HighKey’s Caramel Filled Bar features caramel and a thick chocolate coating. The Caramel Filled Bar has 2 grams of sugar and 2 grams of net carbs per serving. Each individually wrapped, 3.17-oz. bar can be broken into eight pieces or enjoyed all at once.

Each Chocolaty Stix bar features a layer of peanut butter nougat and a layer of caramel, all enrobed in a milk chocolaty coating. Packed with 9 grams of fiber and 1 gram of sugar, the Chocolaty Stix are individually wrapped and a perfect size to stash in a purse, desk or lunch box. Each box comes with six bars.

“Chocolate and sugar are synonymous, but they don’t need to be.,” said Joe Ens, CEO of HighKey. “If you look at the top selling chocolate bars in the world, they’re all milk chocolate and packed with more than 20 grams of sugar per serving. It was important for us to replicate that same sweet and creamy milk chocolate taste that people crave in low sugar form. By using our custom blend of best-in-class sugar substitutes, we were able to create our delicious Chocolaty Stix and Caramel Filled Bars, which each have only 1 to 2 grams of sugar per serving and taste just as good as the original.” 

The Chocolaty Stix and Caramel Filled Bar each have a suggested retail price of $14.97 and are available for purchase on HighKey’s website and Amazon.
