The UK-based brand Seed and Bean recently expanded its lineup of ethical chocolate bars to include three new flavors. While there are a number of brands experimenting with adding unexpected ingredients to chocolate, not all of these brands adhere to the highest ethical and environmental standards. This brands makes organic, Fairtrade chocolate with the same premium ingredients used by bigger chocolate companies.
The new chocolate bar flavors from Seed and Bean are made with aromatic ingredients and "The Dominican's finest selected Trinitario cocoa." These new varieties include the smooth and creamy caffe mocha flavor, the liquorice-tasting fennel flavor and the citrusy sweet orange and thyme flavor. Like the brand's existing chocolates, the new bars are made from organic ingredients that are in compliance with Fairtrade standards.
