I haven't looked for non dairy analogs specifically as yet
I'm just reading labels more and abstaining from the obvious
Lots of dark chocolate blocks are dairy free, including some Lindt and Aldi ones. No substitutes in them, just dairy free because it’s dark choc.
Exactly. My choc taste kicks in at about 70%. 85 is perfect.
If you’re talking about Aldi Choceur they’ve added milk powder to the dark one now. I checked the flavours a little while ago and didn’t see one without dairy.
The Old Gold 70% has a small amount added too as does the Coles Belgian dark chocolate block and the generic cooking chocolate blocks.
The very dark Lindt chocolates in the thin blocks might be a safe bet but I still like a little fatty creaminess to the dark chocolate and these ones are a little sharp and dry.
There is Sweet William dairy free chocolate but it contains inulin which can trigger symptoms.
There are the vegan ones but expensive. Loving Earth taste waxy with the coconut oil.
I’d have to say the Vego bar is the tastiest dairy free chocolate bar if you can find it
