New amazing food trends are being created on internet websites like TikTok and some of them go viral and get loads of attention. One of them that is making a huge buzz is around what is called “bark” – layers of yummy foods placed in flat layers on top of each other, then frozen.

Once frozen the “bark” it is broken or cut into squares and creates a guilt-free, healthy delicious treat!  Layers of things like nut butter, nuts, dried fruit and melted chocolate is added to create a simple and healthy dessert or snack.
