The Fibre One soft-baked squares range will feature two variants: chocolate fudge brownies and lemon drizzle.
They are marketed to consumers “actively seeking a lower fat snack that can be enjoyed as an early evening bite”.
Arjoon Bose, marketing manager at General Mills’ UK arm, said: “We’ve listened to our consumers and we understand they want a guilt-free indulgent snack that will satisfy their early evening cravings. We’re launching Fibre One soft-baked squares in direct response to consumer demand for a tasty treat that’s lower in fat and higher in fibre, so we’re confident our consumers will love it. In fact, the brand has an incredibly strong track record – Fibre One is a $500m megabrand in the US, growing at 10% year on year.”
The snacks have an RRP of GBP2.89 (US$4.35).
