Description:

This bar has the most ingredients in our line, topping out at only 10. Using Montmorency, or “tart” cherries gives our bar the flavor of a freshly baked cherry pie. In fact, many of our customers have declared that our bar does, in fact, taste like grandma’s cherry pie! Upon the first bite of Viking Cherry you will immediately taste the tart cherries. The plums, apples and honey combine to add a subtle chewiness. The walnuts and hazelnuts work together to enhance the elegant taste of pie. Finally, we mix in rolled oats, hulled millet, milled barley and milled wheat berries for that added crunch.

 

History Lessons:

"Cattle die, kinsmen die, all men are mortal. Words of praise will never perish, nor a noble name." – Prose Edda. The Vikings were expert seamen and fierce warriors. Their skillfully crafted longboats allowed them to explore the frigid waters of Scandinavia, Iceland and Greenland and settle throughout Europe. The Viking military prowess and ferociousness in battle earned both fear and respect from friend and foe alike. They established numerous colonies and sought trade with their neighbors. Their stories, or sagas, of their gods Thor and his hammer Mjolnir, Odin and Freya are still enjoyed by people throughout the world. We honor their memory.
