Can I use honey instead of maple syrup in these bars?
Yes, though the bars will lose their authentic Canadian flavor.
What’s the role of maple sugar?
It adds both sweetness and a deeper maple taste.
Can I swap pecans for another nut?
Walnuts or hazelnuts work well as alternatives.
Why use Jivara chocolate in cereal bars?
Jivara offers creamy, malty notes that balance the nutty crunch.
How should I store these Canadian-style cereal bars?
Keep in a cool, airtight container for up to 7 days.
