Prodigy
Crunchy, roasted hazelnuts and smooth creamy chocolate. It’s time for a Prodigy reinvention of that mouth-watering classic. Their Chunky Hazelnut Chocolate bars are crafted from organic whole roasted hazelnuts, rich and vibrant cacao and just a dash of sea salt — delivering a luscious, velvety chocolate that’s brimming with natural goodness.
Free from a lot as well. Free from dairy, refined sugar, palm oil and gluten. Instead, they craft these delights using all-natural ingredients that cut down sugar content by 65%. Sugar-defying ingredients like raw lucuma — the Peruvian superfruit bursting with vitamins and minerals, and raw cacao nibs — bold chocolate flavour that’s packed with rejuvenating antioxidants. Natural snacking just got indulgent.
Playin Choc
The winning formula is just three natural and organic ingredients. The deliciously smooth and creamy chocolate is a combination of gently roasted cacao, which is grown on small family-owned farm collectives in Peru (certified slave free, child labour free and animal labour free), Madagascan Bourbon vanilla and vitamin rich coconut.
These ingredients are certified by the Soil Association, which enables a reduction in pollution and soil erosion, increase in soil fertility and uses less energy. The two flavours include a Single Origin Peruvian Dark 70% and a brand new Single Origin Peruvian Vegan M•lk which can also be found in the ToyChoc Box™ – chosen by kids and dairy-free!
