Lindt has launched its first 100% cocoa dark chocolate bar in the UK. The unsweetened 50g EXCELLENCE bar is priced at £3.50 and is available from Sainsbury’s, Lindt shops and Lindt’s website. The company says the launch responds to rising demand for dark chocolate and lower-sugar products, while advising consumers to increase cocoa content gradually over two to four weeks. The article also contrasts Lindt’s cocoa-content milestone with the University of Reading’s 100% British-origin chocolate bar and notes that Lindt’s cocoa is Rainforest Alliance Certified.
