Veganz Organic White Coconut Flakes 80 g

🛈

A breath of sustainability

One bite of the Veganz Organic White Coconut Flakes and whoosh – you have a clear view of the wide-open expanse of the ocean. But there’s something else you can see clearly on the crunchy candy bar besides the infinite blue, namely its eco-balance that we’ve cleverly printed right onto the package. As you can see from the image above, it’s divided into 4 categories. This lets you see exactly just how sustainable our products are. In this way, we make it easy for you to choose a white chocolate that’s not only delicious but also good for the environment.  

Why are we doing this? Transparency and environmental protection are very important to us: You get all the facts and we have the opportunity to make our products more sustainable.  

More than just a heavenly snack

Our White Coconut Flakes taste just like 5 Star Holiday in the Dominican Republic. The organic snack bar not only meets these criteria in terms of taste, its eco-balance is also across the board convincing: as a vegan product, the snack bar protects the animal world and therefore receives the highest mark in this category. Moreover, with a CO2 footprint of 281 grams, we can hardly complain, especially since it’s below the average of other chocolates. The rainforest is also happy because we use neither soy nor palm oil as ingredients.  

Cocoa butter likes to swim, too

It’s not only important to us that the Veganz Organic White Coconut Flakes tastes like white chocolate but that it’s vegan and certified organic – having these features does a lot for the environment. However, there is still room for improvement in terms of water consumption. The cocoa butter especially has a relatively high water footprint since it needs so much of the precious liquid for its growth. In addition, the infrastructure of the water supply in the cultivation areas is not yet sufficiently developed.  

So how do we get more summer, sun and sunshine? That’s a good question: The answer could be to provide assistance directly at the location – e.g. through the provision of water treatment plants – or use ingredients from different regions. Whichever solution we choose – today’s know-how flows into tomorrow’s products.  

Origin of Raw Materials

Our high-quality organic cocoa comes from Latin America, or the Dominican Republic to be exact. Next to the organic certification, it also bears the UTZ seal. This means that the farmer and working conditions are monitored and child labour is forbidden on the plantations. Additionally, because of this seal, the rainforest is under special protection. In order to provide us with further security, our Veganz Code of Conduct also regulates social standards that are respected by our suppliers. 

Not only tastes like a caribbean dream…

…but like white chocolate as well! Oh, don’t worry – the chocolate coating on our the Veganz Organic White Coconut Flakes contains no milk! We let the cow be a cow and instead use a combination of cocoa butter and rice syrup powder. A touch of vanilla rounds the candy bar off to perfection. So, let’s get packing, shall we? 

Free from soy and palm oil? Like a never-ending holiday!

How wonderful that our Veganz Organic White Coconut Flakes fills that criteria! What’s as awesome as lying on the beach all day sipping coconuts? The fact that the ingredients of our white delicacy are certified organic. That ought to make the sun come up!  

Packaging made from coconut shells?

Or how about palm leaves? Yeah, that would be awesome. With the Veganz Organic White Coconut Flakes we decided on foil and paper. What’s so special about that? The co-called Natureflex foil, that’s what! Made from sustainable wood pulp, it can go into the compost and will decompose within 50 days. And if you don’t have a compost, no worries! Just toss it into the residual waste bin!  
Our paper wrapper is nothing to sneeze at since it’s FSC certified and printed with mineral oil-free ink! And although the packaging might seem a bit unconventional, it offers optimal protection so that the bar remains coco-tastic and wonderfully crunchy.   

We’re pretty proud of it, but we also know there’s a whole lot of room for improvement in the wide, wide world of packaging. And so, the search for environmentally friendly alternatives continues…
