Trek Cocoa Coconut Protein Flapjack Review (2026)

The Trek Cocoa Coconut Protein Flapjack is one of the easiest ways to add 9g of plant-based protein to your day in a snack that genuinely tastes like a treat. Wondering whether a box is worth buying? Below is our complete, honest review covering taste, texture, nutrition and price.

Trek are a staple in the healthy snacking industry. If you haven't come across them before, they focus on vegan snacks that are typically high in protein and often gluten-free too, making them ideal for coeliacs. The Cocoa Coconut flapjack is no different.

Taste and texture

Texture-wise, these flapjacks are gooey and chewy: exactly what you want from an oaty flapjack. They taste like a real treat while still keeping plant-based ingredients and a respectable protein figure.

The coconut flavour is subtle and not overpowering. The dominant notes are cocoa and flapjack, which is the thing owners mention most often: even people who say they don't like coconut tend to get on with these.

Nutrition

Nutritionally, they're what you'd expect from a plant-based snack bar built on oats. Trek list 9g of plant-based protein per 50g bar, and the oat base makes them a source of fibre.

The honest framing is that this is a flapjack first and a protein bar second. The oats, syrup and chocolate topping that make it taste like a treat also make it energy dense, and the sugar is on the high side if you're watching it closely. The macros lean carb and fat rather than protein-led. Trek quote the full energy, fat, sugar and salt breakdown on the pack, and that panel is the number to trust, so check it if you're tracking macros closely.

We'd prefer the macros weighted more heavily towards protein and less on carbs and fat, but Trek do sell higher-protein bars for that exact purpose. Even so, these flapjacks are a decent option for topping up your protein intake, and could work as a part meal-replacement for breakfast depending on your current diet plans. For where a bar like this fits in a day's eating, the NHS Eatwell Guide is a sensible reference point.

Cost

The RRP for the Trek Cocoa Coconut Protein Flapjack was £12.49, which worked out at around £0.80 per bar, a very affordable price point for a protein flapjack, and it was often discounted below that.

That is now academic on Amazon UK, where the flavour is unavailable across every pack size we can find. If you want to check whether it has come back, the link below still points at the correct product.
