The Lucho Dillitos Bocadillos comes in a biodegradable leaf wrapper

Leaf-wrapped Colombian energy bar makes UK debut

Colombian energy bar Lucho Dillitos Bocadillos is now available in the UK. Forget discarded gel wrappers littering the countryside; these bars are wrapped in leaves and can be thrown away with no guilty conscience.

The newly-available energy product is made of natural fruits and sugars. The natural energy bars have long been a favourite with cyclists in Colombia. The bar is made from 85 percent Guava paste and 15 percent sugar. 

The bars are available from selected shops in the UK. They retail for £16.99 for 12 individually-wrapped bars.
