Aero has unveiled a vegan version of its most popular dark chocolate bar.

Nestle’s British brand Aero’s “bubbly” bar includes 70 percent dark chocolate for a “rich and delicious melt-in-your-mouth” experience.

The 95g bars available to buy on Amazon and at Walmart are free of egg and fish, and do not contain mustard, sesame, shellfish, sulfite, and wheat.  Being vegan-friendly the bars are also suitable for lactose intolerant customers.

With demands for meat and dairy alternatives rising steadily, the food industry is also witnessing a major shift in the confectionary and dessert sectors.
