VEGAN FIENDLY?

Our Well Naturally Dark Chocolate range is formulated to be vegan friendly, but may contain traces of milk as it’s manufactured on the same equipment as our Milk Chocolate.

OTHER INGREDIENTS

Unlike traditional chocolate, Well Naturally No Sugar Added Chocolate does not contain any added sugar. To impart that delicious sweet taste, we use the natural sweetener stevia. As well as sweetness, sugar provides structure and texture to chocolate. To create a deliciously smooth, chocolate texture, we use:

Polydextrose – a type of fibre derived from corn
Erythritol – a sugar substitute which belongs to a family of ingredients called sugar alcohols (or polyols)

To bring out the rich cocoa notes in our chocolate, we use a hint of flavour. All flavours used in Well Naturally No Sugar Added Chocolate are natural.

Thankfully sugar consumption is declining, and this is set to continue, but that doesn’t mean giving up your favourite treats – Well Naturally has pioneered the future of chocolate.

Making the healthier choice doesn’t mean compromising on taste! We make sure all Well Naturally products are delicious. We’ve replaced the sweetness of sugar with stevia, a natural plant-based sweetener to create 100% real chocolate, without the sugar!

Naturally sweetened with Stevia

Stevia is a zero calorie, natural sweetener obtained from the leaf of the stevia plant. A member of the sunflower family, the stevia plant is native to Paraguay, and has been traditionally used for hundreds of years as a sweetener. Around 300 times sweeter than sugar, only a small amount is needed to add sweetness.

Is the cocoa in Well Naturally No Sugar Added Chocolate sustainable?

Yes! We source our cocoa from one of the world’s leading suppliers of responsible and sustainable cocoa to ensure we secure and protect farmers’ livelihoods and the environment.

Is Well Naturally No Sugar Added Chocolate vegan?

Well Naturally No Sugar Added Milk Chocolate products are not vegan.
All Well Naturally No Sugar Added chocolates are manufactured in the same facility as milk products. Therefore, we must declare that all Well Naturally No Sugar Added Dark Chocolate products may contain traces of milk.

We do not actively promote our dark chocolate products as Vegan for this reason, however we recognise that many following a vegan or vegetarian diet will consume products which may contain traces of dairy or animal products. This considered, we leave the decision to the individual based on their dietary needs

Why “No Sugar” not “sugar-free”?

Well Naturally products do not contain any added sugars; sugars are sugars such as sucrose (cane sugar/table sugar), brown sugar, molasses, glucose syrup, icing sugar, and fruit sugar syrups.

Sugar naturally occurs in many food products including the cocoa that forms the basis of Well Naturally chocolate, and the naturally occurring milk sugars (lactose) in milk solids which make our milk chocolate products delectably smooth and creamy.

Is Well Naturally No Sugar Added Chocolate safe for diabetics?

Well Naturally No Sugar Added Chocolates do not contain added sugar, making them a healthier alternative to regular chocolate.
As everyone’s dietary needs are different depending on their health, age, activity levels etc; we recommend consulting with your health professional for individual dietary advice.

What is Stevia?

Stevia is the common name given to a natural plant-based sweetener extracted from the stevia plant. Steviol glycosides (the sweet component of the stevia leaf) are extracted from the dried stevia leaves. The end product is a fine white powder which is about 300 times as sweet as sugar, so we only use a very small amount in Well Naturally chocolate. Stevia has been used as a natural sweetener in food products for many years.
