Better-for-you chocolate bar brand Bon AppéSweet is preparing to reveal its fresh new look at Natural Products Expo 2021, along with a newly expanded line of vegan-friendly, zero sugar added chocolate bars. Dairy-free as ever, the brand's chocolates are plant-based and naturally sweetened with dates.
The decadent organic, non-GMO, fair trade chocolate bars can be found in flavors like Golden Chocolate and Sea Salt Almond that speak to consumers who desire indulgence without compromise.
Bon AppéSweet got its start as a gelato brand, Amore Congelato, when Navy veteran and dessertier Thereasa Black wanted to create a sugar-free treat for her daughter. With a focus on chocolate, the brand is spotlighting clean, great-tasting products made with just a handful of simple ingredients.
