The classic Oat Milk + Dark Chocolate bar is a dairy-free product that combines 55% cocoa and creamy oat milk and it has the potential to not only share a smile on a special occasion but also bring awareness to Grevy's Zebra—the most threatened of the three species of zebra. The decadent [oat milk chocolate bar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lindor-vegan-truffles) is said to be as smooth and sweet as milk chocolate but creamier with none of the dairy or excess sugar. The trio also includes the [Tart Raspberries + Dark Chocolate bar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-west-chocolate) and the Vibrant Cherries + Dark Chocolate bar, which bring attention to the Grizzly Bear and Atlantic Puffin, respectively. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.4/10 - Popularity: 19% | Activity: 13% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Oat Milk Chocolate:** Opportunity for companies to innovate with plant-based chocolate products and highlight different animal species with each flavor. - **Eco-friendly Packaging:** Opportunity for companies to create sustainable and eye-catching packaging designs as consumers become more environmentally-conscious. - **Charitable Partnerships:** Opportunity for companies to partner with non-profit organizations to raise awareness and funds for endangered animal species. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Food and Beverage:** Companies in the food and beverage industry can capitalize on the trend of oat milk chocolate and create unique flavors that benefit different animal species. - **Packaging:** The packaging industry can take advantage of the growing demand for eco-friendly packaging by creating innovative and sustainable designs. - **Non-profit:** Non-profit organizations that focus on animal conservation can partner with companies to raise awareness and funds for endangered species through cause-related marketing and product collaborations. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Decadent Oat Milk Chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oat-milk-chocolate-bar.md) - [Textural Oat Milk Chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/7th-heaven-chocolates.md) - [Vegan Valentine's Day Confections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dark-chocolate-bear-hug.md) - [Delectably Dairy-Free Chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dairyfree-oat-milk-chocolates.md) - [Vegan Valentine's Day Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/viva-las-vegan-chocolate-truffles.md) - [High-Quality Mini Truffle Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-truffle-bars.md) - [Valentine’s Day Chocolate Crates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sjaaks-organic-chocolates.md) - [Free-From Valentine's Gifts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/valentines-day-gift-baskets.md) - [Low-Calorie Oat Milk Chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oat-chocolate-bar.md)
