Our New Chocolate Spread, Inspired by Addie"},"content":{"rendered":"

Ever think of eating chickpeas and chocolate together? Now before you go all \u201cew!\u201d on us, hear us out. Think about it: chickpeas are mild in flavour and contain protein and nutrients. Cocoa powder makes it chocolatey and masks the chickpea flavour. Coconut milk and tahini add creaminess, and a touch of cane sugar sweetens it up. It\u2019s basically a healthy chocolate spread – chocolate lovers rejoice!<\/span><\/p>\n

We developed this spread for our friend Addie. When she was younger, her parents wouldn\u2019t let her have sweet treats. Yep, you heard it: no ice cream, no chocolates, no Nutella. Addie started craving them more. To an extent this is normal – most children have a natural affinity for sweet treats – but with Addie, it became a problem. Any chance she got, she\u2019d sneak the sweet stuff behind her parents\u2019 back. The more her parents cut her off, the more she\u2019d want it. She started to develop cavities, her energy became off the wall, and her relationship with food was all messed up. With Holy Fudge\u00a0 – a low-sugar treat with good-for-you ingredients – parents have no reason to withhold the chocolatey goodness their kids crave, and everyone can indulge their sweet tooth in a healthy way.<\/span><\/p>\n
