Calling all chocolate lovers! Chocolate is one of my favorite small pleasures and I have been so happy with the vegan options I have found, that even non-vegans will love! Whether you enjoy chocolate by itself, with a glass of wine, on a tasting board, or with fresh berries I have some great options for you to try that you may not have heard of before.
