Finding clean, on-the-go snack options is a challenge we all share. But if you’re living a plant-based life (or want more plant-based options in your rotation), that challenge can feel like a wild goose chase.
Even protein bars, which seem like the perfect healthy solution, are often riddled with mystery ingredients and questionable fillers.
That’s why our Sunflower Cinnamon Protein Bars are such a game-changer. More than a tasty treat, they’re a nutritional powerhouse just waiting to be devoured.
Let’s explore why these vegan protein bars deserve a permanent spot in your wellness routine — even if you’re not about that #veganlife.
😍 Meet Your New Obsession: Rise Sunflower Cinnamon Protein Bars
Here’s why the powerful simplicity of these limited-ingredient protein bars makes them the ultimate snack or meal buddy:
🙌 The Ingredients List is #CleanEatingGoals
If you want to start eating cleaner, our Sunflower Cinnamon Protein Bars are as clean as they come.
With just five simple, whole-food ingredients — sunflower butter, organic coconut nectar, pea protein, organic cinnamon, and organic vanilla extract — you know 100% what you’re putting into your body.
Our bars contain zero preservatives, artificial sweeteners, or sugar alcohols. They’re also gluten-free, soy-free, and non-GMO.
Without the processed junk and common allergens found in other protein bars, they’re easy on your digestive system and better for your gut health.
👉 TL;DR: They’re just pure, plant-based goodness you can feel confident eating and sharing with those you love. And that’s just one reason why our minimalist protein bars are the MVP of clean eating.
🏆 Sunflower Butter + Pea Protein = Complete Plant-Based Protein Victory
We get it — meeting your protein goal on a vegan diet can feel overwhelming.
Only a handful of plant-based foods contain all your essential amino acids (the building blocks of protein). Most vegetarian or vegan protein options lack or are low in one or more essential amino acids, making them an incomplete protein source.
Good news? Sunflower butter and pea protein make the ultimate dream team when it comes to complete protein for vegan bars!
Sunflower butter is rich in the amino acid methionine but a touch low in the amino acid lysine. Pea protein is high in lysine yet relatively low in methionine.
When their forces combine, these high-protein vegan bars cover all your bases and ensure you get the full spectrum of amino acids your body needs to thrive.
🌱 Studies Show Everyone Can Use More Plant-Based Protein
The benefits of plant-based protein bars aren’t just for vegans! Science proves that sneaking more plant-based protein into your diet bodes well for your overall health and longevity.
Plant-based proteins are rich in fiber and nutrients that may help prevent chronic illnesses like cancer, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes.
So even a moderate increase in your diet can lead to noticeable health improvements (read: you don’t have to completely eliminate animal protein).
According to studies with thousands of participants:
- Increasing plant protein intake by just 3% of total calories was associated with a 5% reduction in the risk of premature death.[*]
- Men had a 12% lower risk of death for every 10 grams of plant protein per 1,000 calories they ate.[*]
- Women who consumed more plant-based protein developed fewer chronic diseases and were generally healthier as they aged.[*]

Now you can finally join the protein bar party without worry! Your new BFFs are perfect for:

😋 Protein + Healthy Fats: Curb Cravings, Conquer Hunger
Sunflower butter is a dynamite source of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. Research shows these healthy fats lower LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, improve total cholesterol profiles, and support overall heart health.[*]
Plus, protein and fat are the most satiating macronutrients. Because it takes longer for your body to digest them, snacks loaded with protein and good fats can help you feel fuller for longer.
With 17 grams of satiating fat and protein per bar, you’ll be saying, Hunger? Don’t know her!

🥥 Naturally Sweetened with Organic Coconut Nectar
Coconut nectar is the sweet sap tapped from coconut blossoms. This natural, minimally-processed sweetener imparts a hint of caramel-like flavor.
But it’s not only a treat for your tastebuds — as one of the best natural, better-for-you sugars, it’s also low on the glycemic index (GI). Low-GI foods help your body maintain steady blood sugar levels, which is crucial for sustained energy and overall health.
No more suffering through those dreaded blood sugar spikes and crashes. You’ll ride a wave of sustained energy to power through your mornings and avoid afternoon slumps.
🍂 Cinnamon: the Secret Health Magic in Your Spice Rack
We all know cinnamon as that warm, cozy spice that dominates autumn drinks and treats. It makes our best-tasting vegan protein bars extra flavorful and crave-worthy.
However, you may not know cinnamon’s spicy health benefits.
From its impressive antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties to its blood sugar, weight management, heart health, and cancer prevention support, this spice is no slouch!
So pass on the Cinnamon Challenge and snag more of this potent wellness ally with our Sunflower Cinnamon Protein Bars.
