Last Christmas we had several requests from members saying they were struggling to find good quality vegan chocolate. We also had a number of members upset as they had found out some of their favourite chocolates weren’t even vegetarian. This year, to save you from tears, we’ve put together a list of vegetarian and vegan chocolate, licensed to carry our Vegetarian Society Approved vegetarian and vegan trademarks, for you to fill up your stockings!
Conscious Chocolate’s Citrus Zest
Conscious Chocolate’s citrus bar ticks all the boxes: organic, vegan, raw, free from gluten, soya and refined sugars. It’s flavoured with essential oils of white grapefruit from America, lemon from Italy and lime from Peru. These citrus notes cut through the richness of the dark chocolate perfectly. This is a chocolate bar everyone can enjoy!
The Raw Chocolate Company’s Chocolate Stem Ginger
The Raw Chocolate Company have some great vegan chocolate products. They specialise less on traditional chocolate bars and more on chocolate-coated things like nuts and berries. This one is made from Crystallised Fijian ginger, wrapped in a soothing coat of their award-winning raw chocolate. Spice up your life this Christmas!
Bean & Pod’s Velvet Caramel Moments – Dark Chocolate
Bean & Pod have delivered a real crowd-pleaser here; these chocolates are filled with a sweet velvet caramel, inside a luxurious dark chocolate coating. They come in boxes of seven, making them perfect gifts, stocking fillers, or just for personal indulgence whilst watching a classic Christmas film.
Pana Organic’s Pana Chocolate – Mint
Pana Organic has great range of vegetarian and vegan chocolate bars with some really enticing flavours. Mint chocolate is an absolute classic ‘after-dinner’ flavour combination. Once you’ve eaten your Christmas dinner, open a bar and pass it down the table. Make sure you have some first though!
Ahla’s – Chocolate Coated Rose Turkish Delight
If you love Turkish delight – or “lokum”, as it’s known in Turkey – then then you’ll love this Ahla’s Chocolate Coated Rose Turkish Delight! Real, authentic cubes of rose-flavoured lokum, covered in milk chocolate. They’re all delicately handmade in Turkey and free from artificial colours and flavours. It’s the real deal!
