Is it really chocolate?

Paste the bar's ingredients. We check whether cacao comes first, un-split the sugar brands hide across several names, and flag alkali-processing, trans fats and dairy. So you can tell real chocolate from sweetened cocoa.

Every Chocolate, Scored on the Throne Standard

We read the ingredient list of every chocolate this brand sells and scored each one against the Throne Standard, the same rubric behind our food ratings. Only whole-plant ingredients count as natural. The headline score below is the average across the full range.

Every chocolate on sale at honestchocolate.co.za was read ingredient-by-ingredient and scored against the Throne Standard, where only whole-plant ingredients count as natural. Cacao, cacao butter, and whole-plant sweeteners such as coconut sugar. Refined sugar, soy lecithin and flavourings are not natural, and milk and honey are animal ingredients. So only a fully whole-plant bar can reach 100% and a full 5.
