Allergen Information (Tap to open):
We take your health and safety very seriously. If you have any allergen inquiries please Contact Us.
If an allergen is present in the product, it will be clearly declared in the ingredients.
"May Contain" statement NEW FOR 2025 (Progressive rollout):
- In 2025 we will be progressively updating our labels and product pictures with our new label that now include a "May Contain" statement.
- The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) dictates that "Cross-contamination statements may be declared by food manufacturers and importers".
- That said, we hold ourselves to much higher standards than the CFIA and Health Canada rules oblige. Most companies do not and you will only rarely see "May Contain" statements.
- If there is a remote chance that there might be cross-contamination of a priority allergen, we will declare it on the product label in the form of a "May Contain" statement.
- A "May Contain" statement does not mean that the allergen is present in the product, it is simple a precautionary measure we take to stay the most transparent possible.
- If an allergen is present in the product, it will be clearly declared in the ingredients.
- For example our Quebec made flours come from a mill that makes both oat and wheat flours. Since both allergens are present in the mill we automatically declare the possibility of cross-contamination even if all precautionary measures are taken.
- Only priority allergens are declared in the "May Contain" statement, which are:
- Cereals & Grains: Triticale, Barley, Oats, Rye, Wheat.
- Tree Nuts: Almonds, Brazil Nuts, Cashews, Hazelnuts, Macadamia Nuts, Pecans, Pine Nuts, Pistachios, Walnuts.
- Peanuts
- Sesame
- Eggs
- Milk
- Soy
- Mustard
- Fish
- Seafood: Crustaceans, Molluscs.
- Sulphites
- Priority allergens are decided by government agencies and health boards. To read more on the subject see "Common food allergens - Priority allergens" published by the CFIA.

Our organic chocolate wafers 70% are truly a godsend. These Peruvian chocolate wafers also called chocolate drops are only what you would expect from a premium chocolate and are incomparable with anything found in grocery store shelves.
From snacking to crafting your own artisan chocolates, these organic chocolate wafers will disappear faster than you can imagine.
What does 38%, 55%, 70% and 100% mean?
- It refers to the cocoa content in the chocolate. For example 70% cocoa is 70% of its mass in ground up cocoa beans. Be careful with products listing "70% cocoa content" as these inferior products have much lower cocoa bean percentage. Their "cocoa content" is often jacked with cocoa powder. A premium chocolate typically has very little or no cocoa powder. Its cocoa is purely in the form of cocoa beans. This is why some cheap chocolate products and chips feel dry and crumbly, there is too much added cocoa powder.
- 100% cocoa as the name implies is pure ground up cocoa beans without any added sugar or fillers. This is made purely for making chocolate and recipes as it is extremely bitter.
- A higher "%" does not mean a higher quality, it is just the taste. Our 38% Belgian chocolate drops are very low in cocoa but tastes like heaven.
What are the different chocolate shapes?
- With premium chocolate comes specialized chocolate depending on the intended use.
- Chocolate chips are intended for baking inside dough such as cookies, muffins, pancakes, etc. Chips dry out if melted in open air, as they were not designed to be melted.
- Chocolate wafers or chocolate drops are made to be melted into molds, bars, etc. Their shape make them easy to melt and their composition is designed for that purpose. If you want to try to make your own gourmet chocolate, these are the way to go.
- Chocolate couverture blocks are as the name implies blocks to be melted. You can always eat is as a giant chocolate bar, we won't judge. Some people genuinely like the texture of chunks. Couverture chocolate as the French word implies is formulated to cover things. This chocolate is what you want to use for chocolate fondue, chocolate covered fruits and nuts, etc. It is very malleable and won't crack even if is very thin over a product.
What is the difference between regular, semi-sweet and bittersweet?
- Regular is pretty straightforward meaning the sugar content and bitterness are what you would normally expect from a chocolate bar.
- Semi-sweet chocolate has sugar added, but less than what you would expect from regular chocolate. Our organic semi-sweet chocolate chips have 47% cocoa beans and 52.5% sugar.
- Bittersweet has even less sugar added and is commonly called "Baker's Chocolate". Our bittersweet chocolate have around 52.2% cocoa beans and 47.3% sugar.
- As you can see the differences between semi-sweet and bittersweet are marginal and can be used interchangeably in baking.
