As the names suggest, both products combine the rich flavor of chocolate with the [citrusy taste of oranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tcho-lemon-twist). Similar to ChocZero's other products, these chocolate squares contain only one gram of carbs and notably low sugar content. The company is able to achieve this by using a [unique sugar substitute](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/guittard-sant-72-cacao): monk fruit. Monk fruit is a plant-based alternative sweetener that is rapidly gaining popularity worldwide thanks to its low-calorie makeup and sugar-like taste and texture. For those interested in a guilt-free chocolate treat, both Milk Chocolate Orange Squares and White Chocolate Orange Squares are now available via ChocZero's website.
