Hey all! So if you've seen my other flavour reviews, you probably already know that I am a huge fan of Quest and their products. They have the best nutrition profile of any bars and all of their products taste amazing and deliver quality protein and fibre. Their customer service is also amazing and overall they are just a great company. So I've tried pretty much every flavour of their protein bar line including the Quest Craving PB Cups (which by the way are awesome!) but I had yet to try their new flavour White Chocolate Raspberry. While at my local nutrition store yesterday I noticed they just got them in and excitedly I bought 3 bars to try( I was sure I would like them!) And man was I right!! This bar is so delicious! I felt like I was eating dessert for breakfast. I love the new soft texture to all their bars. The white chocolate chunks and raspberry were throughout the entire bar. No fake raspberry taste here! It tasted almost like raspberry cheesecake or a raspberry muffin when heated up. I love how the sweetness from the white chocolate compliments the tanginess from the berries. When I finished the bar I had to restrain myself from eating another one! They are that good! & It's hard to believe but this flavour almost tops my past favourite, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough or at least ties. Seriously if I could I would go buy a full box of just this flavour alone. I highly recommend you try it out and heat it up for about 15 sec. in the microwave for best results! That way all the white chocolate melts and makes it even more amazing :).
Rating: 10/10 Nice work Quest! Can't wait to see what you come up with next!

So you mention this new soft texture of the bars.. Is this formulated into only the newer flavors, such as CCCD & WCR? Or did they go back and remake this texture for all their bars? Just curious if you have any more information on this as I'm a huge fan of their bars as well. I have tried flavors such as PB&J, Chocolate PB, Chocolate Brownie, Banana Nut Muffin & Strawberry Cheesecake and was wondering how the texture compares to this next texture you are speaking of. I just have yet to get my hands on CCCD or WCR.

Hey Thanks for the comment! That's a great question...I was actually curious about that myself because I haven't tried the past flavours since they have come out with the new softer bars. I think they may still be the same texture though. But the newer bars are just more easy to chew and fall apart nicer. Chocolate PB is probably the closest in texture to the newer bars but I'd say I still like the texture of Cookie Dough/WCR better. Some people find them a little more gritty but I don't notice it. In the microwave they also heat up nicer since I found with the old bars they hardened again after heating up and turned somewhat taffy-like but these ones hold their shape better and stay soft. Hope that helps! I highly recommend you try them! If you have a local Popeyes near you that's where I picked them up.
