Certified JAS organic fair-trade milk chocolate from Switzerland. This product contains one 50g (1.7oz) hazelnut chocolate bar. Crafted by People Tree in Switzerland, the birthplace of milk chocolate, this treat features only fine organic ingredients sourced from fair-trade organic farms. Slowly and carefully crafted with traditional conching methods to enhance the natural smooth texture and rich flavor - no chemicals, emulsifiers, or artificial flavors of any kind. Only high-quality organic cocoa butter is used as a fat source—no alternative plant oils—resulting in pure natural chocolate that melts in your mouth.
A timeless classic, hazelnut and chocolate have proven to be an incredible duo enjoyed by almost anyone with a sweet tooth. The richness of creamy milk chocolate and the mild-flavored toasty crunch of hazelnuts come together for a simple and elegant flavor full of comfort and class. All milk used comes from pasture-raised cows, nurtured free of any growth hormones or antibiotics. Just the thing for enjoying during your relaxation time or as a gift for someone special.
What is Fair-Trade?
Fair-trade involves working directly with producers, often in developing countries, to purchase their goods at fair prices. By paying a fair value for crops that have been carefully cultivated through hard labor, fair-trade aligns with honest business values. This approach empowers producers, particularly those facing social or economic disadvantages, helping them achieve stability and independence. Supporting their livelihoods and health also plays a critical role in reducing child labor and creating opportunities for children to have consistent education, paving the way for a better future.
In addition to this hazelnut variety, we also offer plain milk chocolate and raspberry milk chocolate from the same producer. You can also try all three in our variety set.
