How We Make MacroBars

Every GoMacro bar starts with the same idea: an ingredient list that makes sense at first glance. Below, you'll find a full breakdown of what goes into our MacroBars, from the plant-based protein blend to the real fruit, nut butters, and natural sweeteners that give each flavor its character.

At the core of most of our bars is an organic protein blend of sprouted brown rice protein and pea protein, delivering up to 12 grams of plant-based protein per bar without relying on whey or dairy. Organic brown rice syrup does double duty as both a natural sweetener and a binder, often paired with organic coconut sugar or maple sugar, depending on the flavor. From there, each MacroBar takes its own shape: almond butter and banana, cashew butter and blueberry, peanut butter and chocolate chips, or cocoa butter and sea salt, to name a few.

We source ingredients with the same care we put into formulating them. Our almonds come from a family-owned organic farm in southern Italy, our cocoa butter and cocoa powder come from ethically partnered farms across Central and South America and Africa, and our maple sugar comes from a mission-driven cooperative in Wisconsin. Every ingredient is Certified Organic, Non-GMO, and free from artificial sweeteners, preservatives, and gums.

This glossary exists because transparency matters to us as much as it does to you. Use the A–Z list below to look up any ingredient in your favorite MacroBar and see exactly where it comes from, what it contributes nutritionally, and which flavors it's found in.

FAQs

What protein sources does GoMacro use in its bars?

Most MacroBars use an organic blend of sprouted brown rice protein and pea protein, delivering up to 12 grams of plant-based protein per bar. You can compare protein content across every flavor in our MacroBars collection.

Are GoMacro bar ingredients organic?

Yes, GoMacro bars are built on Certified Organic ingredients throughout, from the protein blend to the sweeteners and add-ins. Our full line of protein bars applies this standard across every product, including MacroBars, Mini Protein Bars, and Kids MacroBars.

Do GoMacro bars contain artificial sweeteners or preservatives?

No, GoMacro relies on organic brown rice syrup, coconut sugar, and maple sugar for natural sweetness, with no artificial sweeteners, preservatives, or gums in any bar.

Which ingredients should I check for if I have an allergy?

Nuts (almonds, cashews, peanuts, and their butters) are the most common ones to watch for. While every bar is Certified Gluten-Free for those with gluten allergies, many bar varieties contain peanuts and tree nuts. If you're managing a nut-related need, our protein bars without nuts are a good place to start.

Where does GoMacro source its ingredients from?

Sourcing varies by ingredient; for example, our almonds come from an organic farm in southern Italy, and our maple sugar comes from a Wisconsin-based cooperative.
