What is Quinoa Creme™ ?

Quinoa Creme™ is the process we use to make our own dairy alternative. As quinoa is known to be a superfood with many health benefits, we have devised Quinoa Creme™ as an alternative not only for lactose but also gluten-intolerant people. Unlike other plant-based alternatives like rice or oats, quinoa is known to be easily digestible. Quinoa Chocolate's founder, Julie Jackson is a natural advocate for quinoa having personally used and experienced the benefits of quinoa for many years.

Are your chocolates sugar-free?

Yes. We've just improved our delicious chocolates by replacing coconut palm sugar with powdered dates. This natural sweetener is high in fibre and rich in other nutrients. So enjoy our creamy chocolates with less worry over potential health or dietary risks!

Are Quinvas Chocolates™ organic?

Although we purchase ingredients which are labelled ‘organic’ we are not authorised to label our products as such. Food Standards Authority have very strict guidelines - with considerable start up costs - which food manufacturers must meet.

Having said this, we do aim to undergo the guidelines that will give us the the organic certification. It is rather costly, it is a goal that will be further down the line. In the meantime we are happy to just let you know our chocolates are honestly made with natural ingredients.

Do your chocolates contain any allergens?

While our other chocolate bars do not use nuts, soy, dairy or any other allergens, traces may be present, due to the fact our kitchen also handles allergens. We have provided this information on our labels.

Are your chocolates vegan or vegetarian?

Our chocolates are vegan. All our ingredients, including our inclusions are plant-based and not derived from any animal or dairy-free sources.

Are your chocolates safe for diabetics?

Absoultely! Using only dates as a natural sweetener, our chocolates are ideal not only or diabetics but also for anyone without any health issues at all! People who who just want to enjoy a truffle or bar without the normal sugar spike which is common with other chocolate brands.

Is Quinvas Chocolates™ only for people with allergies?

No - Quinvas Chocolates is FOR EVERYONE. With the fresh ingredients and creamy texture, it's been said our chocolates lack the blandness found in a lot of vegan chocolates; our blend of fresh ingredients with a creamy texture gives Quinvas Chocolate that extra 'kick'!
