Coco Chocolatier is a candy company based out of Scotland that recently introduced a new kind of spiced chocolate bar that completely reinvents haggis with a vegan-friendly twist.
Haggis, the national dish of Scotland, is a savory pudding made with the organs of a sheep or a calf that's mixed with onion, suet, oatmeal and spices, and stuffed into an animal stomach then boiled. Coco Chocolatier's new "modern reflection on haggis" features a base of single-origin 60% cacao dark chocolate from Colombia that is accented by nutmeg, allspice, cloves and pepper for a savory finish.
As the dark chocolate bar features just some of the spices that are used in the making of the iconic type of pudding, the vegan-friendly and gluten-free chocolate appeals to a wide range of people who want a different experience of the dish.
