Crunchy Nut-Free Chocolates

NOMO's Hazelnot Crunch Choc Bar Mimics the Taste & Texture of Hazelnut

— April 29, 2020 — Lifestyle
It's common for chocolate bars to be studded with pieces of almonds, peanuts and hazelnuts but NOMO wants to make sure that everyone can enjoy a sweet and crunchy treat with its new nut-free chocolate bar. For the many consumers who are used to avoiding certain foods due to nut allergies, NOMO created a first-of-its-kind, nut-free Hazelnot Crunch Choc Bar. The allergy-friendly product is not only vegan but free from dairy, gluten and eggs, all the while offering an experience that reminds of the taste and texture of hazelnuts.

The creamy and crunchy nut-free chocolate bar is made with a non-dairy alternative to milk chocolate with a nut-free hazelnut flavor, plus rice crispy pieces and cocoa nibs for added texture.
