The woman-owned brand is re-releasing its most popular holiday flavor after selling out in 2025
MONTVILLE, N.J., October 6, 2026 – Clean-label snack brand Day Out Snacks announced today the highly anticipated return of its hit holiday flavor, Peppermint Bark, which sold out during its inaugural debut in 2025.
The limited-edition seasonal drop of the dessert-inspired protein balls brings back the brand’s top-performing holiday SKU to answer strong customer demand across direct-to-consumer and Amazon channels. In feedback throughout the year, shoppers called for the return of Peppermint Bark after last year’s small-batch inventory cleared out in record time.
"Our community made it clear that Peppermint Bark had become a holiday staple for them,” said Day Out founder Becky Dheri. “One of the best things about being an agile, independent brand is that we’re able to listen closely to this kind of feedback and respond to our customers in real time. Bringing back Peppermint Bark as this year’s holiday drop allows us to capitalize on proven velocity, reward customer loyalty, and continue delivering the clean-label indulgence our customers love."
The returning favorite reimagines the iconic holiday confectionery into a nutrient-dense, functional bite. Combining rich dark chocolate with a cool, crisp peppermint finish, Peppermint Bark protein balls deliver nostalgic holiday flavor without the high sugar, artificial additives, or inflammatory fillers common in traditional seasonal treats.
Each 4.5-ounce resealable bag contains nine poppable protein balls (three per serving). Formulated on Day Out’s signature wholesome base of nut butter and dates, each serving delivers 9 grams of plant-based protein powered by an organic superfood blend of pea, chickpea, sacha inchi, and chia seed. The product is certified gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, vegan, and non-GMO.
“The popularity of Peppermint Bark and our other limited-edition drops proves that consumers don't want to skip out on seasonal indulgences. They just want cleaner ways to enjoy them,” Dheri said. “Targeted seasonal releases are a great way for us to meet that demand, building urgency and excitement during the busy Q4 shopping rush while giving our community a fun reason to stock up.”
Peppermint Bark Protein Balls will be available starting in November exclusively on Day Out’s website and on Amazon while supplies last. Due to last year's rapid sellout, early purchasing is strongly encouraged.
