Lindt has partnered with vegan chocolate brand ChoViva to launch a limited-edition chocolate bar for Veganuary.

ChoViva is the brainchild of foodtech start-up Planet A Foods, which developed its cocoa-free chocolate by fermenting oats and sunflower seeds.

Named Soft & Creamy Hazelnut, the bar features a creamy ChoViva hazelnut and oat crème filling with hazelnut and oat cookie pieces, coated in Lindt’s classic Hello Vegan chocolate.

The new creation is the result of a collaboration between Planet A Foods and Lindt & Sprüngli. Sara Marquart, co-founder and CTO of Planet A Foods, said: “Lindt represents the highest chocolate craftsmanship and best taste, and it feels incredible to create such a great product with such a significant company”.

Planet A Foods claims ChoViva produces 90% less CO2 emissions per kilo manufactured than regular chocolate.

The Lindt Hello Vegan Soft & Creamy Hazelnut bar will launch for a limited time in January.
