Choko La Fennel Fusion Dark Chocolate — BULLSHIT

Name: Choko La Fennel Fusion Dark Chocolate
Brand: choko la

Munch or Dump rates Choko La Fennel Fusion Dark Chocolate by choko la BULLSHIT — score 0/90.

A premium dark chocolate sold on 'all-natural, artisanal' positioning that quietly drops in artificial vanillin flavouring. Decent cocoa-forward bar, but the natural claim is a lie.

Why this verdict

Marketed as natural/artisanal but contains artificial vanillin flavouring
Sugar is the #2 ingredient in the chocolate base
Synthetic flavour added on top of real fennel that could carry the flavour
Still an indulgent, sugar-and-fat-heavy confection

Ingredients (6)

Cocoa Mass (safe) — Real chocolate liquor.
Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
Cocoa Butter (safe) — The natural fat of the cacao bean.
Emulsifier - Soya Lecithin (moderate) — A soy-derived emulsifier used in tiny amounts to smooth texture. Generally well tolerated but a soy allergen and a processing additive.
FENNEL (safe) — Whole seed, soothes digestion.
Artificial Flavouring substance - Vanillin (moderate) — Synthetic vanilla flavour. Not dangerous, but it's lab-made — and its presence flatly contradicts the product's 'all-natural' marketing.
