Knowing that there are some people who can't enjoy chocolate with sugar, Chocolove created a line of six no-sugar added chocolates. According to Chocolove founder and CEO, Timothy Moley, the aim when it came to creating the new products was to create products that "taste as good as regular Chocolove, be sweetened with simple ingredients and have no aftertastes."
While fans of the brand know Chocolove's 88% Extreme Dark Chocolate with just 12% sugar, the six new chocolate bars in the Chocolove XO line go above and beyond—with "X" representing extra fiber and "O" indicating no sugar added. The Chocolove XO bars are available in decadent varieties like Salted Caramel in 60% dark chocolate and Salted Peanut Butter in 37% milk chocolate, as well as Dry Roasted Pistachio, Fruits & Nuts and more.
