Abstract: A peanut crème which can be used to produce a snack or other food bar which includes at least two filling layers directly adjacent each other. When a layer of the peanut creme of the invention is deposited, it sets up quickly permitting the deposit of an additional layer thereon without impairing the texture of either layer. The result is a bar having a texture similar to that of peanut butter, in contrast to most previous bars which have lacked the organoleptic impact of peanut butter. The peanut creme is readily processable and physically stable. While the peanut creme layer sets up firmly when deposited in the molten state, it yields a desirable creamy texture in the final product.

Abstract: A snack or other food bar which includes at least two filling layers directly adjacent each other. Preferably one or more of the filling layers comprise a peanut creme specially adapted to the invention. When a layer of the peanut creme of the invention is deposited, it sets up quickly permitting the deposit of an additional layer thereon without impairing the texture of either layer. The result is a bar having a texture similar to that of peanut butter, in contrast to most previous bars which have lacked the organoleptic impact of peanut butter.
