The Vegan Society Aotearoa is delighted to announce the second annual Vegan Chocolate Awards. There are so many Kiwi made vegan chocolates available throughout New Zealand, that we felt it was time to offer these awards, to showcase the excellence to be found in our local chocolatiers.
Vegan chocolate is no longer just dark chocolate, there are many plant milk chocolates, there are inclusions, flavoured bon bons and truffles. Many of our favourite brands of drinking chocolate are “accidentally” vegan.
The awards have been created to allow both local and imported brands to show off the delights and tastiness of vegan chocolate. There are 8 categories in our awards, including the Supreme Award, which will be given to the overall winner, the one chocolate that all the judges feel is simply the best!
The judging will take place today, Monday April 24 from 9am til noon, at Khu Khu Eatery at 171A Ponsonby Road, Ponsonby, Auckland.
Award categories are:
Dark Chocolate bars
Milk Chocolate bars (plant milk only)
Chocolate Bars; flavoured/ inclusions
Filled Chocolate Bon Bons and Truffles
Caramels
Bean to Bar; dark/milk/subs/flavoured
Drinking Chocolate
Supreme
