The product itself is made up of two layers, with a fruit base of sultanas, apples and apricots, topped with oats and sprinkled with strawberry, blackberry or apple pieces.
Gary Frank, founder of The Fabulous Bakin’ Boys, said: “We are really excited to be launching Fruit N’ Oat slices.
“We wanted to develop a healthy product that mums would seek out for the family’s lunchboxes, and that children would enjoy eating. It is also an ideal impulse snack for busy people on-the-go, and we will be launching an impulse purchase version of the strawberry and apple to foodservice and retail from January 2011.”
Fruit n’ Oat slices will be available in Asda from 28 December, Sainsbury’s from 18 January and Tesco from 16 February, with more listings to follow.
