The bars are designed to set themselves apart from other [vegan chocolate bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxurious-vegan-chocolates) on the market, especially ones that seem to be lacking flavor. The Dirty Cow flavors are naturally vegan and dairy-free, yet offer indulgent flavor experiences with plant-based chocolate and other unique ingredient additions. Some of the dairy-free chocolate bars that are available from Dirty Cow include Cinnamon Churro and Brazillionaire, both of which come in at 55% cacao, plus a few varieties that come in at 70%. The decadent dairy-free treats are topped with texture-rich additions that elevate the sweet experience.
