Purdys Chocolatier Celebrates International Chocolate Day with the Release of Less Sweet, Vegan Chocolates

VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Canada’s much-loved Chocolatier is celebrating International Chocolate Day with the release of a brand new chocolate box, including 4 never-before-seen flavours. Since 1907, Purdys Chocolatier has been delighting Canadians with delectable chocolate made with premium ingredients. Beginning today, the Vegan Dark Chocolate Collection will be available online and in-shop featuring Vegan Fig, Vegan Raspberry, Vegan Tonka, and Vegan Mango - 4 brand new chocolates that are irresistibly smooth, and not too sweet.

Introducing the NEW Vegan Dark Chocolate Collection

Indulge in the sublime harmony of this artisanal collection, exquisitely infused with fruity flavours - for those who like their chocolate “less sweet”. Elegantly designed with Purdys purple, gold accents, and a glossy finish, this 16-piece gift box is as luxurious on the outside as it is on the inside. Mildly sweet fruit flavours complement the boldness of the vegan dark chocolate, making each bite of these hand-adorned chocolates a rich and lavish experience.

Vegan Fig: Smooth vegan dark chocolate ganache infused with a nutty, touch-of-sweet fig purée, enrobed in velvety vegan dark chocolate with bronze shimmer on top.

Vegan Raspberry: Juicy and tart raspberry-infused vegan dark chocolate ganache, enrobed in smooth vegan dark chocolate with a unique, zesty red shimmer on top.

Vegan Tonka: Dynamic, sweet, and spicy, Tonka bean has often been described as having notes of vanilla, almond, and clove or cinnamon. Native to South and Central America, Tonka has a warm and smooth flavour profile. This ingredient is blended with vegan dark chocolate ganache and enrobed in vegan dark chocolate with white shimmer on top.

Vegan Mango: A velvety mix of tangy mango purée and decadent vegan dark chocolate ganache inside a rich vegan dark chocolate shell topped with gold shimmer.

In addition to the new gift box, Vegan Fig and Vegan Mango will be available to purchase from the chocolate case at all Purdys Chocolatier shops.
