Luna launches new nutrient bar for women

EMERYVILLE, Calif. — Luna, maker of the Whole Nutrition Bar for Women, today introduced Luna Carrot Cake, the newest offering in the line of snacks with select essential nutrients for women. Luna Carrot Cake is a cinnamon-spiced bar with carrots, walnuts, white soy chips and sweet raisins drizzled with vanilla icing.

“We’re championing the idea that you can have your cake, and eat it too,” said Tara DelloIacono-Thies, Registered Dietitian and manager of nutrition strategy for Luna. “We want women to honor cravings in a healthy way, such as indulging a little bit now rather than going overboard later.”

Like all Luna products, Luna Carrot Cake includes the Core 4 vitamins and minerals: calcium, folic acid, iron and vitamin D. It has 180 calories, 8 g of protein, is a good source of fiber and contains 70% organic ingredients.

Luna Carrot Cake is now shipping nationwide and will roll out on store shelves throughout April. It carries a suggested retail price of $1.39.
