When it comes to satisfying their sweet tooth with chocolate, vegans are limited to enjoying dark chocolate products—but Askinosie Chocolate is challenging this with the release of its first "milk" chocolate bar, the 52% Coconut Milk Chocolate Bar.
In response from demands from its fans for more vegan and dairy-free products, Askinosie Chocolate set out to create an entirely new kind of milk chocolate that would still offer a familiar flavor and texture experience. As Askinosie Chocolate founder and CEO describes: "this bar is really an excellent milk chocolate bar that just happens to be vegan and dairy-free. When people taste it, they have no idea it doesn’t include dairy."
The kosher, gluten-free Coconut Milk Chocolate features a packaging design that spotlights the father-and-son cocoa farmer team from which Askinosie sources its Arriba Nacional cocoa beans.
