How and where is the chocolate made?
Is it vegan/ dairy-free/ gluten-free
Wild Chocolate Tree is located in Nanaimo, British Columbia. All of our chocolate is stone-ground in house using a small chocolate refiner. This machine uses granite stones to process the cacao and maple sugar (+ other ingredients depending on the flavour) into smooth chocolate. This process takes 24-48 hours. From there, each batch of chocolate is tempered, poured, packaged & labeled by hand. Learn more about how its made HERE.
Our main line-up of flavours is always dairy-free/vegan. This includes our dairy-free mylk chocolate made with oat mylk or cashew mylk.
We do have a separate line of milk chocolate which has a different label design from our dairy-free flavours, has a “contains dairy” sticker on the front, and we even keep them separated on our market table to make sure there is no confusion. :)
Chocolate is naturally gluten-free, however our kitchen is NOT a certified gluten-free facility, so there is always a small chance of cross-contamination.
