Vegan Milk Chocolate Bars

Mars is Launching Vegan-Friendly Versions of Its Galaxy Chocolate Bars

Chocolate-loving vegan consumers are somewhat limited by the kinds of chocolate they can enjoy, and most vegan-friendly chocolates tend to be dark and bitter—but Mars is changing this by introducing new versions of its popular Galaxy chocolate bars. This is particularly noteworthy because Mars is setting itself apart as one of the first mainstream confectionary brands to launch vegan milk chocolate bars.

The Smooth Orange, Caramel & Sea Salt and Caramelized Hazelnut bars are said to have the same level of creaminess as regular milk chocolate. Appealing to eco-conscious consumers, the first-of-their-king non-dairy milk chocolate bars are packaged in films that are made from wood fibre that can be composted at home.
