++++ Update (10.10.2019): There is now nut-free and soy-free Christmas chocolate from Dammenberg exclusively in our Chocolate Wonderland (in the section: Christmas chocolate ) ++++
In this post, you'll learn why we'll only be offering nut-free chocolate for Christmas from Plamil, why this chocolate will soon be available for pre-order, and why Dammenberg doesn't have any suitable Christmas chocolate for children!
Even if it's hard to imagine right now, Christmas is just around the corner. Because we've set ourselves the goal of gradually offering only completely allergen-free chocolate varieties (e.g., nut-free, soy-free, etc.), we're looking for chocolate manufacturers with such varieties for Christmas .
Last week, we already had discussions with Mr. Iso-Kungas, the owner of the Finnish chocolate manufacturer Dammenberg. He sent us the packaging designs for the Christmas varieties in advance. And we don't want to withhold these designs from you. Dammenberg's nut-free and soy-free Christmas chocolate will likely look like this this year:
Even though many Dammenberg varieties are guaranteed nut-free, soy-free, dairy-free, lactose-free, sugar-free, and vegan, the packaging doesn't convince us! You're looking for chocolate that's attractively packaged in a festive way. And this important requirement is completely missing from all of Dammenberg's Christmas varieties. For this reason, we will not be including any chocolate from Dammenberg in our Christmas range 🙁 (If you disagree, please feel free to object.)
The nut-free chocolate manufacturers Marou , L'Atelier des 5 Volcans, and Kuná unfortunately do not offer any Christmas flavors at all, so you can only rely on the existing varieties for Christmas.
Malmö recently launched a chocolate confectionery that, while not Christmassy, is still packaged very attractively, even for children. If you haven't discovered these varieties yet, here's what they look like:
You can find the two available varieties here: Chocolate confectionery ( we can order other varieties on request, just write to us !)
We've been told that the chocolate confectionery is delicious! Especially because the creations are very creative! So just be brave and give it a try! 😉 You can also find the chocolate confectionery among all the other varieties here: Malmö
That leaves Plamil from England. Plamil has some truly appealing varieties for Christmas. These ones, in particular:
Plamil has packaged its well-known varieties (nut-free, partially sugar-free, dairy-free, and lactose-free) very successfully, especially for children. The three available Advent calendars are also very appealing and will make children's hearts beat faster!
So our hopes rest entirely on Plamil . However, other problems await us here, as the likelihood of a disorderly Brexit can unfortunately no longer be dismissed. We will probably order the Plamil Christmas chocolate in October. Presumably again as a pre-order (like Easter chocolate).
But we'll write another post about that here and on Facebook. If you don't want to miss the pre-order, be sure to subscribe to us on Facebook so you don't miss this opportunity! You can find Schoko-Wunderland.de on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/schokoWunderland.de/
