In this article we'll provide a review of these grain-free, dairy-free, no added sugar bars. Are they a delicious new find or just overhyped? Let's dive in to learn if the Blue Dinosaur bars deserve a spot in your shopping cart or pantry. An Overview of Blue Dinosaur Paleo Lamington Bars Blue Dinosaur is an Australian brand producing paleo, vegan and allergy-friendly snack bars and baking mixes made with minimal natural ingredients. Their lamington inspired bar contains just cacao, coconut, vanilla bean, dates and coconut oil to mimic the chocolate-dipped texture of a classic lamington treat. With no grains, refined sugar or dairy, this 45g bar is marketed as a healthier twist on a nostalgic favorite. The five natural ingredients used (and nothing else) are all paleo, grain-free and lower in sugar. But does the treat live up to its promise of reinventing a decadent snack into a more nutritious option? Let's dig into a hands-on review. Product Review - A Healthy Lamington Doppelganger Here are my impressions after tasting the Blue Dinosaur Paleo Lamington Bar: This bar definitely nails the distinct lamington flavor combination of rich chocolate, sweet coconut and a hint of vanilla. The texture is more dense and fudgy like a bliss ball versus a super soft cake-y lamington. But the coconutty chocolate taste transports you straight to an Aussie bakery. While you can tell it's a "healthified" take, this bar doesn't scream DIET SNACK. It delivers a decadent chocolate and coconut satisfaction without an overload of sugar. I'd take this any day over a processed granola bar pumped with sugar alcohols and stabilizers. The ingredients list is refreshingly simple. My favorite is that real vanilla bean is used rather than artificial flavors. Overall a delicious nourishing snack that feels like an indulgence! Blue Dinosaur Lamington Bar Ingredients & Nutrition Info Now let's look at what gives this treat its distinctly lamington vibe: Organic Coconut - Provides moistness and that classic coconut flavor coating of a lamington. Sulphur-free coconut keeps it allergy-friendly. Organic Cacao - Raw cacao powder offers antioxidant benefits and gives the rich chocolate taste without dairy or sugar. Organic Vanilla Bean - Real vanilla adds extra depth versus artificial vanilla extract. A little goes a long way. Organic Coconut Oil - Healthy plant-based saturated fat helps bind the bars. Also adds a melt-in-your mouth richness. Organic Dates - Dates blended into a paste act as a natural sweetener and binder to stick the bars together. That's an impressively short list to create a delicious sweet treat! And with no refined sugars, the bars contain just 9g total carbs and 18g total fat per 45g serve. A smarter swap for your chocolate cravings. Who Might Enjoy These Paleo, Vegan Bars? The Blue Dinosaur Lamington Bars are blended to appeal to several specialty diets: Paleo - Contains only wholefood ingredients our Paleo ancestors would recognize like fruit, nuts and coconut. Vegan - Uses plant-based ingredients and no animal products. Dairy-free - No milk, butter, eggs or dairy ingredients. Grain-free - Excludes all wheat, grains and flours. Sugar-free - Sweetened only with whole dates, not refined sugars. So this bar could appeal to Aussies avoiding grains, dairy, gluten or refined sugar, but still wanting a delicious sweet treat. Those on paleo, vegan or low-sugar diets may particularly enjoy this reinvented nostalgic snack. Are Blue Dinosaur Bars Worth Buying? If you have fond memories of sinking your teeth into a chocolaty lamington, the Blue Dinosaur Paleo Bars offer a nutritional upgrade on this Australian classic. Their good fats and low sugar content make for a healthier indulgence. I'd recommend these bars for their simple wholesome ingredients and delicious taste that transports you back to a local bakery. They deliver a sweetness and satisfaction far better than artificial protein bars while using only five real-food ingredients. Overall a tasty find worth adding to your snack repertoire! Just beware of overdoing it on any sweet treat and aim for responsible enjoyment as part of a balanced diet. Just a heads up.. you do need to chew with care because while all care has been taken, some date pits may remain in the bar. So whilst all care is taken, keeping an eye out for date pit fragments is all part of the fun.
