Organic Chocolate
💐 Who wants organic candies?! I have been searching for better chocolate brands since conventional candy brands use unhealthy ingredients such as high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) and artificial vanillin and bone-char sugar!😮
Issues with conventional chocolate candies
They are unhealthy and made with GMOs, pesticides, and controversial, toxic ingredients.
❌ Corn Syrup: Highly processed sweetener made from GMO corn scratch.
❌ Artificial Color: petroleum-derived, this cheap ingredient is responsible for hyperactivity in children
❌ Artificial Flavors: petroleum-derived, it hides undisclosed mix of solvents, preservatives, flavor modifiers...
❌ Natural Flavors: not a better option, it is added to addict you to the products so you will crave it for more
❌ Vanillin: cheap artificial vanilla flavor derived from wood or petrochemicals
❌ TBHQ: synthetic preservatives responsible for harming the immune system and provoking food allergies
❌ PGPR: (polyglycerol polyricinoleate) cheap cocoa replacement
❌ Growth Hormones: found in conventional milk found in chocolate. Choose vegan or organic chocolate
❌ Bone char sugar: found in conventional candies, cookies, chocolate, and other candies or treats. It is refined sugar that has been bleached with animal bones, cattle, and pig bones!
The animal bones are used as decolorizing and deashing agents, particularly in cane sugar as this contains more colored impurities. Bone char possesses a low decoloration capacity and must be used in large quantities
It doesn't sound much like a treat to me. Even though I am not vegan this sounds yummy.
Yes, bone char is used to bleach and filter refined sugar!
According to PETA: if you want vegan sugar, avoid all refined sugar, alternatives are Sucanat and turbinado which are not filtered with bone char. Or choose beet sugar!
NOTE: 🐰 Organic sugar found in certified organic chocolate and candies doesn't have this process instead, Certified U.S Department of Agriculture organic sugar cannot be filtered through bone char!
❌ Palm oil: responsible for deforestation in Malaysia and Indonesia, and the extinction of Orangutans. Palm oil plantations are responsible for child labor and forced labor.
Issues with some organic and natural chocolate candies
Some popular and organic chocolate brands have another issue. Even if they use simple and natural ingredients, they still could contain unhealthy amounts of heavy metals such as cadmium and lead.
Including these very popular and highly promoted chocolate brands: HU, Alter eco, Green & Balck's.
Consumer Reports found dangerous heavy metals in chocolate from Hershey's, Theo, Trader Joe's, and other popular brands. We tested 28 dark chocolate bars for lead and cadmium. To determine the risk posed by the chocolates in CR’s test, they used California's maximum allowable dose level (MADL) for lead (0.5 micrograms) and cadmium (4.1mcg)
🔎Popular and highly promoted chocolate brands such as Hu, Alter Eco, Green & Black's contain dangerous heavy metals in chocolate according to
Consumer Reports (CR)
👉These brands contain unhealthy amounts of heavy metals and California proposition 65 warning!
👉CR tested 28 dark chocolate bars for lead and cadmium:
❌High in Lead:
-
Hu
-
Chocolove
-
Endangered Species
-
Trader Joe's
-
Lily's
-
Lindt
-
Godiva
❌High in Cadmium:
-
Alter Eco

-
Scharffen Berger
-
Lindt
-
Dove
❌High in both:
-
Trader Joe's
-

Theo
👉According to CR: "Chocolate makers should survey cacao-growing areas to determine cadmium levels, and favor beans from places with lower levels."
👉CR lists also the safer chocolate brand choice and the only USDA-certified organic in the list is Taza Chocolate.
✅ Taza scored lower levels of both metals in CR tests.
The company mixes beans from “different origins to ensure that the final product” has lower levels.
I have been searching for better chocolate without the risks of unhealthy ingredients such as high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), artificial vanillin, bone-char sugar found in conventional candy brands, or palm oil, and heavy metals such as lead and cadmium found even in some organic chocolate brands.

USDA Certified Organic Chocolate
I reached out to the company and they confirmed that their products do NOT contain California Proposition 65 warning!
💖 How pretty are these chocolate boxes? This is by far my favorite organic chocolate brand!
You can’t get a more organic and delicious company than this female-owned, family-operated business based in California, specializing in organic and vegan chocolate, and dedicated to respecting the environment, community, and earth.
🍃USDA Certified Organic: handmade chocolate. They embrace biodiversity, soil, and water preservation, giving even greater flavor to their gorgeous chocolate and candies.
🍃Vegan: All their chocolate amazingly is vegan, no animal products are used, making them even more environmentally friendly. Dairy-free, egg-free, gelatin-free, and most importantly their sugar is bone char-free. (Yes, conventional sugar has bone char, primarily made using cattle and pig bones!!)
🍃Kosher certified, in a gluten-free, dairy-free, and corn-free facility. What more can one ask?
They are not only beautiful but are the most natural, sustainable, certified chocolate brand I know. And are also incredibly scrumptious, the best I have ever had!!
💖 My favorite boxes are…all of them!
Sjaak's Organic Halloween Candies
🎃This Halloween give to your kids and neighborhood kids better and healthier candies!
Here is what you need to look for:
✅1. USDA certified organic seal: at least 95% of the ingredients are organic. no GMOs, no pesticides, no fertilizer, water, and soil preservation.
✅2. Vegan: animal-free products are more eco-friendly. no dairy, eggs, gelatin, or bone char sugar!
✅3. Allergies-free: gluten-free, dairy-free, and corn-free facility
❌Bone char is something that I truly avoid!
according to PETA:
“Bone char—often referred to as natural carbon—is widely used by the sugar industry as a decolorizing filter, which allows the sugar cane to achieve its desirable white color.
Bone char, which is used to process sugar, is made from the bones of cattle from Afghanistan, Argentina, India, and Pakistan.”
Bone char is also used in other types of sugar. Brown sugar is created by adding molasses to refined sugar, so companies that use bone char in the production of their regular sugar also use it in the production of their brown sugar.
Basically, it is in the majority of candies, and if you want to avoid it, choose USDA-Certified organic products!
💚Let’s support this California-based, family-owned, women-owned brand that makes healthy, handmade chocolate candies they would give to their own kids! Their mission is aligned with ingredients organically sourced and dedication to respect you, your kids, and the planet! 🌎

Organic Raw Cacao Powder
🌸This Organic Raw Cacao Powder is just as nature intended: 100% pure, with nothing else added - made from raw beans organically grown in the heart of the Amazon rainforest, optimized for nutrient retention, non-alkalized, and also exceptionally low in Cadmium. *As they source cacao from a non-volcanic area, third-party lab tests have shown that their Cacao Powder has 93% less Cadmium than other leading brands.
Sourced from an agroforest deep inside the Brazilian Amazon, they ensure product quality and prosperity for local harvesters.
🍃Tehir Cacao and Acai products are never heated above 118°F.
Cadmium test: 0.07 parts per million as per third-party lab tests. The low traces of Cadmium are the result of their cacao trees growing in non-volcanic soil in the Xingu region of the Brazilian Amazon, which has much lower heavy metal content than cacao trees that grow in the soil of mountainous regions such as those of Western South America where Cadmium levels can be as high as 1.1 parts per million (15x higher than their)
Lead test by Mérieux NutriSciences: 0.146 parts per million as per third-party lab tests. This means that one serving (1 tbsp) of their Cacao Powder has a maximum of 0.7 micrograms of lead. For context, the World Health Organization (WHO) has determined that a tolerable daily intake of lead for children is 3.6 micrograms per kg per day. A child weighing 20 kg (44 lbs) could safely consume 72 micrograms of lead a day or 99 tbsp (17.4 oz) of our Cacao Powder
