The Organic Almond Beverage Chocolate Bar is a vegan chocolate bar that delivers the creaminess of milk chocolate without any dairy at all, since an Organic Almond Beverage is substituted for milk. Trader Joe’s Organic Almond Beverage Chocolate Bar is made with classic ingredients like organic cocoa butter, organic cane sugar and organic cocoa beans but it sets itself apart with a clever swap for milk made from a blend of almond flour and water.
The dairy-free chocolate bar also contains a few other ingredients like sea salt and ground vanilla beans to round out the flavor, and it offers the experience of a classic chocolate bar with pieces that are scored, so that they're ready to be snapped off and shared.
