The Wellness Gift Box by La Maison du Chocolat was inspired by the work of a nutritionist doctor and shares a total of five plant-based, dairy-free treats that are free from cream and butter. The health-focused chocolate treats include unconventional flavors like Mango Turmeric, Green Apple Aloe Vera and Praliné Squash Seeds.
Without animal fats and proteins, the snack-sized Wellness Gift Box offers a fun way to discover the taste of different fruits and vegetables. As creating chocolates without cream and butter was a challenge, the naturally sweetened plant-based treats took months to perfect.
When it comes to enjoying the chocolates, La Maison du Chocolat recommends enjoying them at room temperature and allowing their flavors to develop in the mouth as they melt.
