One thing I find particularly difficult in my transition to veganism is not being able to eat milk chocolate. My whole life I\u2019ve been a chocolate fiend and absolutely adore the creamy taste of milk chocolate \u2013 but actually I don\u2019t have to give that up! With veganism and dairy-free diets becoming more popular, there is a huge range of vegan chocolate<\/a> available now, and while it might not taste exactly the same as a bar of milk chocolate, that doesn\u2019t mean you won\u2019t find something you like just as much!
\n<\/p>\n

Vego<\/h1>\n

\"310667-vego-whole-hazelnut-choc-bar\"<\/a>
\nVego<\/a> vegan chocolate is a firm favourite in the office. If you haven\u2019t tried it yet then what are you waiting for?! If you don\u2019t like hazelnuts I wouldn\u2019t recommend it as it is made with the finest Italian hazelnut paste blended with whole hazelnuts \u2013 it\u2019s basically Nutella in solid form. Not only is it the most delicious vegan chocolate bar you\u2019ll have ever tasted, it\u2019s also Fairtrade Certified, organic and gluten-free, so you can enjoy it without any guilty feelings!<\/p>\n

Plamil<\/h1>\n

\"209922-plamil-fairtrade-organic-alternative-to-milk-chocolate\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I recently tried Plamil<\/a> for the first time \u2013 just before Christmas actually. I was looking for a vegan advent calendar that wasn\u2019t too expensive so I decided to try one from Plamil and honestly it was delicious, it took all I had not to open it all on the 1st of December! Plamil\u2019s chocolate is completely dairy free so it\u2019s suitable for vegans and vegetarians, instead of using milk or soya, the chocolate is made with rice for a unique yet delicious taste. Plamil also uses organic and Fairtrade certified ingredients where possible as they are committed to protecting people and planet.<\/p>\n

Booja Booja<\/h1>\n

\"booja-booja-special-edition-gift-collection\"<\/a><\/center>
\nIf you\u2019re love truffles, look no further than Booja Booja\u2019s<\/a> vegan chocolate truffles \u2013 so delicious you wouldn\u2019t even know they were dairy free. We love Booja Booja because they are a UK based company that uses organic ingredients to make their dairy and gluten free truffles, so no one has to go without and the planet does not suffer. What\u2019s great is that the truffles come in a range of flavours including stem ginger, champagne and hazelnut, and they make great gifts for your vegan friends and family \u2013 or anyone who loves truffles! The perfect vegan gift<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Moo Free<\/h1>\n

\"244506-moo-free-chocolate-bar-chunks\"<\/a>
\nAnother vegan chocolate brands that makes a tasty alternative to milk chocolate is Moo Free<\/a> \u2013 the clue is in the name. Moo Free chocolate is made without cow\u2019s milk, instead using rice for that delicious chocolate taste. What\u2019s more, the award winning vegan chocolate bars are made in factories in the UK that do not handle milk, gluten or soya. They come in a range of flavours too including mint and orange.<\/p>\n

Vivani<\/h1>\n

Vivani<\/a> produce chocolate in wonderful flavours, and have a range of flavoured dark chocolate suitable for vegans that\u2019s just that little bit more exciting than regular dark chocolate. This range includes chilli<\/a>, cranberry<\/a> and orange<\/a>, three delicious tastes and all are made with responsibly sourced cacao and other certified organic ingredients. Vivani chocolate would also make a great gift for a loved one, it comes in gorgeous packaging and tastes divine!<\/p>\n

Raw<\/h1>\n

Raw chocolate is becoming ever more popular too \u2013 it\u2019s a healthier option and is suitable for vegans too. Raw chocolate is made with cacao that has not been oven roasted, and instead is left to dry naturally in the sun thus retaining beneficial nutrients and antioxidants that are lost during the roasting process. Raw chocolate tends not to be mixed with dairy and unnatural sweeteners either, giving you an authentic chocolate taste. Our Raw Chocolate brands include The Raw Chocolate Company<\/a>, IQ Superfood<\/a>, Mulu<\/a> and Ombar<\/a>.<\/p>\n
