They also use super premium ingredients like organic chocolate from TCHO chocolate makers. No artificial flavors or weird gums here, plus organic ingredients means the calories don’t count, right? Kidding! But for real, I love knowing that I can indulge a little bit but still know that I’m eating quality organic ingredients that I can pronounce!
