Luisa’s Vegan Chocolate (made in Nottingham)
Luisa’s Vegan Chocolate is an artisan chocolate company in Nottingham, founded by a woman who pays cacao farmers 60% above Fair Trade prices. The single bars contain just a few quality ingredients, and the casholate range is designed to replace dairy milk.
It’s best to avoid caffeine for pregnancy/nursing. Keep chocolate (and other ingredients like dried fruits, nuts and nutmeg) away from pets.

Flavours include:
- Hazelnut M*lk
- White Casholate
- Gingerbread Casholate

- Wild Rose White Casholate
Why Choose Dairy-Free Chocolate?
Most dairy (especially in processed foods) is not from free-range cows, but from the factory-farming industry, where baby calves are shot dead soon after birth, due to being of no financial use. Cows and their calves have incredibly strong relationships, staying together for months after birth.
Many people therefore choose dairy-free for animal welfare reasons. Others are dairy-free due to allergies, and some even find that giving up dairy is good to heal sinus and/or skin problems.
You can easily get calcium from plant-based foods like green leafy veggies (check medications due to vitamin K), pulses, nuts and seeds.
