One stormy Sunday, Beryl and her older daughter Alex (aka Bobo) decided a cold, clammy afternoon needed a warm, hearty snack. A simple recipe offered an unassuming oat bar recipe that was the perfect antidote to the grey day and together they baked the first Oat Bar and the same exact recipe still used by Bobo's today.
Bobo began sharing with her school-friends and in typical grade-school social wildfire, the Bobo's recipe spread from classmate to classmate, mom to mom and house to house. Soon buoyed by the neighborhood buzz and enthusiasm, Beryl and Bobo went coffee shop-to-coffee shop until most store owners in Boulder knew Bobo?s by name.
In 2003, when Bobo's was getting its first footholds throughout the Front Range shelves and shops, the snack bar category was in its earliest days. Most of it then (and still today) offered little in the way of hearty, wholesome and simple. From the very beginning, Bobo's committed to baking in simple ways with a simple ingredient list with simple language and simple packaging. And while the snack bar category has gone absolutely bonkers, very little with Bobo's has changed. In their bakery, you won't find extruders, presses or die-cutters, Just a lot more pans!
