'Great News'. Last night D & D Chocolates won Silver at the 'Free From 10th Anniversary Awards for our Dairy Free Mint Chocolate Holly Leaves.
These awards promote the very best of 'Free From' products and are judged on quality, presentation and texture. Over the last 10 years the bar has been raised very high and competition is very fierce. Now over 300 companies in 18 categories from the major supermarkets to the 'one man band' companies, compete for prizes. We are so pleased to have won and would like to sincerely thank our customers for their support and positive comments about products and our staff Sharron and Emma without whom this would not have been possible. Thank you very much.

It has been widely reported on the BBC this week that the
number of hospital admissions for allergic react ions have increased by a third
over the last 5 years (Data from NHS reported by the BBC)
We often have calls from parents who are concerned over their
children’s allergies and looking for products they can consume so as not to
feel left out when other siblings are enjoying milk chocolate.
As an allergy specialist confectionery company we are very
aware of children who have one or more allergies which is why we have become a
nut free unit.
Here at D&D Chocolates we offer a dairy free, gluten free and nut free chocolate that is
made to our own recipe that can be enjoyed by both children and adults.
We also manufacture Carob products as an alternative to
chocolate. Our brand Siesta Carob is
caffeine free, theobromine free and contains no cocoa product. All Siesta Carob products are handmade using
non-hydrogenated palm oil (from a sustainable source) and has no added sugar in
the bars or shapes. Sugar is added to
the fondant range.

Today we are returning Siesta Carob products for sale via our website. However we regret that we can no longer claim that Siesta Carob is completely Dairy Free. Although
the ingredients in the product are unchanged in any way we have to put
a warning that the product may contain (however minute) a trace of
dairy. This is entirely due to the manufacturing machinery now being
used. We are sorry that we have to take this step and trust that
this will not stop you continuing to enjoy this delicious and very
popular product.
