Lindt to launch vegan milk chocolate range in Germany this Christmas

One of the world’s largest chocolate manufacturers, Lindt & Sprungli, is getting set to launch its first-ever range of vegan milk chocolate bars in time for Christmas.

Launching in Germany in November, the dairy-free milk chocolate bars will launch as part of its HELLO range which focuses on modern chocolate bars that combine ‘exciting flavours with the finest ingredients’.

Three new vegan-certified bars will be joining the range that use oat milk in place of dairy to give them a creamy taste and texture.

• Cadbury is developing a plant-based alternative to Dairy Milk chocolate
• Make your own nostalgic vegan chocolate bars – featuring 11 recipes!
• Vegan Maltesers, M&Ms and chocolate buttons launch in Holland & Barrett

Customers will be able to choose from three enticing flavours including Hazelnut, Salted Caramel and Cookie, all of which will be packed in new fully recyclable wrapping.

As well as being dairy-free, the bars are also lactose-free and nut-free, making them perfect for those who suffer from food allergies.

With more customers than ever before seeking out products that are healthier and more sustainable, Lindt hopes that the new range will offer both vegans and flexitarians a delicious alternative this Christmas.

The bars will go on sale in Germany in November and will retail at €2.99 for a 100g bar.
