K FOOD KOREAN FOOD Vegan Sesame Seed Bars — Black Sesame & Perilla, 24-Pack 0.35oz, Soft Chewy, No Refined Sugar

These compact snack bars combine toasted perilla seeds with black and white sesame, sunflower seeds and walnuts, bound by a mild, traditional Korean grain syrup (jocheong) made from pear, bellflower root and ginger. Each 0.35 oz bar is crafted without deep-frying, using rice syrup to deliver a tender chew and the delicate aroma of perilla, while keeping the ingredient list short and plant-based.

What are the main ingredients and nutritional highlights?

The bars are built around roasted perilla seeds and black sesame, complemented by white sesame, sunflower seeds and chopped walnuts for texture. They are vegan, cholesterol-free and made without refined sugars or artificial sweeteners.

• Primary seeds: perilla and black sesame for flavor and crunch
• Complementary nuts and seeds: walnuts, white sesame, sunflower seeds
• Binder and sweetener: traditional jocheong (pear, doraji, ginger) and rice syrup
• Free from: refined sugar, trans fats, animal ingredients

How does the texture compare to other seed bars?

Instead of being deep-fried or aggressively baked, these bars are blended with rice syrup for a softer, more pliable bite that doesn’t stick to the teeth as much as brittle bars. The result is a chewy, nutty mouthfeel with distinct seed fragments throughout.

• Soft chew from rice syrup—no hard candy-like crunch
• Visible seed pieces for a satisfying bite
• Retains perilla aroma due to low-heat processing

Are these bars suitable for dietary preferences and pockets of convenience?

Yes—each individually wrapped 0.35 oz bar is portion-controlled for on-the-go snacking, lunchboxes, or travel. They suit vegan and plant-forward diets, but contain tree nuts, so they’re not appropriate for those with nut allergies.

• Individually wrapped for portability and portion control
• Vegan and plant-based friendly
• Contains nuts—check label if you have allergies
• 24 bars per box, convenient for sharing or stocking up

How is sweetness achieved without refined sugar?

Sweetness comes from jocheong, a traditional Korean grain syrup flavored with pear, bellflower root and ginger, combined with rice syrup. This provides a gentle, layered sweetness rather than a sharp sugary hit, preserving the natural flavors of the seeds and nuts.

• Traditional jocheong made from pear, doraji and ginger
• Rice syrup adds mild binding sweetness and soft texture
• No artificial sweeteners or refined white sugar

Who is this for: These bars are ideal for shoppers seeking a compact, plant-based snack with Korean flavors—perfect for vegans, busy professionals, students, or anyone wanting a nutrient-dense, low-processed alternative to sugary bars. If you require nut-free products, this is not suitable due to walnuts; otherwise the 24-count box is a practical pantry staple for daily energy boosts and mindful snacking.
