Forget your local store candy bars, these vegan chocolate peanut caramel bars made with Trupo Treats are absolutely divine! Starting from the bottom, you have a classic chocolate chip cookie made extra special with an extra crunch from our Mylk Chocolate Rice Crunch bars. You have that topped with a smooth, deep caramel and finished with a rich, velvety vegan milk chocolate peanut topping. With a touch of sea salt to garnish, you have bold flavors of sweet, salty, and nuttiness that all work together to give you a toe curling experience with each bite.
