For many of us, chocolate is our guilty pleasure, but treating yourself doesn’t have to be unhealthy. With raw chocolate popping up on the shelves everywhere, we have gathered together a few of our favourites…

Pana Chocolate
Founded in Australia by Pana Barbounis, Pana Chocolate was created with the intention of producing a rich, luxurious chocolate that the whole world could enjoy. To make people stop, if only for a moment, to enjoy a myriad of sensations. A sophisticated chocolate that is smooth and textured, sweet and spicy. Pana Chocolate is handmade from raw and organic ingredients, without preservatives. Chocolate that’s vegan and free from gluten, refined sugar and soy.
The chocolate is made using sustainable and fair trade ingredients. Think: Cacao powder from Bolivia, cacao butter from Peru, cinnamon from Sri Lanka, coconut from The Philippines and an abundance of delicious accompanying ingredients like nuts, goji berries, figs and pure 100% essential oils.

Raw Halo
Using the finest organic cacao and a little coconut sugar to naturally sweeten her chocolate, founder Meg created an indulgent vegan ‘mylk’ chocolate. Each of the bars are individually handcrafted and minimally heated to maintain the vital nutrients found in raw food. Raw Halo’s investment in pioneering chocolate technology gives the chocolate its luxuriously smooth texture which simply melts in the mouth.
Using ethically sourced cacao from small farms in Peru, Raw Halo chocolate is 100% natural and free from refined sugar. It’s also free from artificial sweeteners, gluten, wheat, and lactose.
