Aside from the all important flavour factor - oat milk is way ahead of other plant-based milks including rice, soy and almond in terms of overall emissions, land and water use.

Credit where it’s due
We’ve been right at the forefront of the vegan chocolate movement for a number of years now and built up a loyal and supportive fan base, however we have to first give huge credit to our growers, as great vegan chocolate starts with great cocoa, which we source from a family-run business in Bogota, Colombia, where it's been farmed for over a century. They cultivate their own beans and collaborate with other cocoa producers to deliver our ethically-sourced, high quality cocoa. It’s then blended with oat milk to create what we think is the perfect balance of flavours.

Tasting is believing
For the uninitiated, oat milk chocolate has to be tasted to be believed. It has a thick, creamy texture, with a mouthfeel similar to that of milk chocolate many people are familiar with. As oat milk has a subtle flavour, this allows the flavour of the cocoa bean to really come through, with the hint of a malty, slightly nut-like notes you get from oats.

Oat Milk For Everyone
Many non-vegans are also embracing a dairy-free, plant-based future, with many people now opting for alternatives on cereal & hot drinks - with a growing interest in the milk that’s found in many people’s favourite chocolates. It’s not about denying yourself what you love - swapping your favourite treats for a more responsible alternative is one way we can do our bit towards a better future for all.
Oat milk chocolate is also great for baking fans and you can pretty much use it like for like for any recipes which traditionally use milk chocolate, creating a world of possibilities.
Did you know that oat milk chocolate can also be an ideal treat to eat when breastfeeding a CMPA (Cow's milk protein allergy) baby.
We’re also proud to say that our chocolate has certifications from Vegan Friendly and The Vegan Society, so you can be assured our oat milk chocolate really is as good as we say it is!
