Chocolate On The Road: The Rise of Milk Alternatives
from Chocolate On The Road · host Max Gandy
Coconut milk chocolate has become a pretty standard part of any craft chocolate (https://damecacao.com/what-is-craft-chocolate-bean-to-bar/) maker’s lineup of offerings. Yet the list of plant-based milks seems to grow every day. From nuts & legumes to fruits & grains, there’s an option for every dietary requirement, none of which ever touch a cow. This wave of milk alternatives has finally hit the chocolate industry in a big way, with some large-scale chocolate manufacturers even releasing vegan chocolate lines. So what does this movement mean for the chocolate industry, and the planet as a whole? To find some answers to this question, I spoke with the founder of a vegan chocolate brand, and a decades-old chocolate company with a large range of vegan chocolates. Today’s episode asks how we can expand the definition of chocolate in a sustainable and delicious way. To read an article related to this episode, click here.
