Kind Bar Cashew

Kind Bar Cashew is a cashew-flavored snack bar. Bars in this style usually put whole or chopped nuts up front, held together by a light binder, so expect a firm, chewy bite with a buttery, mildly sweet cashew flavor rather than a candy-bar sweetness. Because it is a snack and not a beverage, there is no serving temperature or glassware to consider. It is meant to be eaten as it comes, at room temperature, straight from the wrapper. The cashew flavor is soft and rounded, so it works best alongside drinks that don't overpower it. Black coffee, an americano or a plain cup of tea all give it something to contrast against. Cold milk or an unsweetened nut milk suits the nutty profile. If you want something more lively, a sparkling water with a slice of citrus clears the palate between bites. For a more substantial snack, you can slice the bar and set it next to apple slices, a mild cheese or a few dried fruits. The fruit's acidity balances the richness of the nuts. The bar is easy to carry, so it fits in a bag, desk drawer or glovebox. Since it is a firm bar, a small bite at a time lets the cashew flavor come through better than eating it quickly. Store it somewhere cool and dry, away from direct heat, as nut-based bars tend to soften and turn sticky when warm.
