I am a HUGE fan of Dark Chocolate and finding GREAT Vegan Dark Chocolate is hard to come by.I came across Organic/Vegan Alter Eco Dark Almond Chocolate and I am in love. This Dark Chocolate was included in my Healthy Surprise box and I quickly began the search of where I could find it locally.I quickly went onto Alter Eco's website and found their phone number. I gave them a call and the folks from 'Alter Eco' went into great detail about all of the 'Fair Trade' products they carry. Alter Eco not only sells Chocolate but they sell Quinoa, Rice & Sugar, all of which are 'Fair Trade Certified' items. You might ask yourself what is 'Fair Trade'? Well 'Fair Trade' means the producers have been paid a price that ensures sustainable production and living conditions, along with a premium to support the growth and advancement of the cooperatives and their communities.Contract prices between Alter Eco and the supplying farmers are 10% to 30% higher than the local market price, with an additional Fair Trade premium set every year by the Fairtrade Labelling Organization (by product category and country of origin). In a global food system where farmers often carry debt three times their annual income, Fair Trade provides concrete opportunities for a stable, prosperous life.I was pleased to discover that since 2007 Alter Eco has provided:$1,116,000 beyond market prices.$150,000 in premiums.Sustainable development for 6 co-ops.A living wage for 5,300 farmers.Alter Eco is also NON-GMO.To me there is no question where I will be buying my Vegan Dark Chocolate from this date forward.I truly do not care that I am paying $1.00 - $1.50 more for Chocolate knowing where it comes, who Alter Eco is supporting and the quality/care that goes into the product.If you have yet to try this product Vegan or not, you have to give Alter Eco a shot and I in my opinion you will not be disappointed.

I purchased this item due to just how clean and simple the ingredients are but the Nutrition label on the back is not the same as the actual one on the bar! I have a Hazelnut allergy and it’s not shown in the pictures or description! It clearly says on the back of the chocolate bar: “May contain milk, hazelnuts, almonds, coconut, and soy. Individuals who are allergic to these should not consume this product.” It’s dangerous to have people with allergies purchase something that is not clearly labeled in the pictures because if I did not read it over - it would have been an allergic reaction.

Does not need sugar to taste delicious!

He was happy to get it.
