​ 
The demand for dairy-free alternatives continues to rise, driven by dietary needs, ethical choices, and lifestyle trends like veganism. In the United States alone, the dairy-free chocolate and snack market exceeds $75 million, with projections pointing to steady growth in the coming years.​

But success in this category is not just about removing dairy — it is about embracing a specialized value proposition aligned with trends such as clean labeling, allergen reduction, and plant-based innovation. For brands, dairy-free chocolate is not a limitation — it is a competitive advantage.​

Alternative ingredients, same satisfaction​

In our dairy-free formulations, we replace conventional milk with plant-based alternatives that retain the flavor, texture, and indulgent experience consumers expect:​

• 🥛Oat milk: Its neutral profile makes it an excellent base for chocolates that aim to highlight cocoa notes.​
• 🥥Organic coconut milk: Adds tropical notes that pair well with ingredients like nuts, dried fruits, or exotic flavors.​
• 🌾Organic rice powder: Offers a lighter, creamier texture with a hypoallergenic focus, ideal for children, sensitive consumers, or those with specific dietary needs.​

These options not only serve a technological function, but also align with clean label trends and plant-based formulations.
In addition to products sweetened with cane sugar, we offer versatile solutions tailored to different market demands: no added sugar, sugar-free, and naturally sweetened options, depending on final consumer preferences.
