If any of you have read the How do you feel today thread, you would know that I ate a bar of white chocolate on the weekend, which taught me a lesson - I am vegan forever :)
Anyway, I DID enjoy the experience of munching on a bar of white chocolate, coz I always loved my milkybars and white freddo frogs. So I was prompted to write to the makers of the best vegan chocolate in Australia - Sweet William (http://www.sweetwilliam.com.au/) and request the making of a vegan white chocolate bar:
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing in regards to the possibility of the production of a dairy-free white chocolate bar. As a vegan, I know that there is a market for it, and I know that it is possible to make as I have located vegan white chocolate chips. Please consider doing this -I know it will be worth your while!
And this is the response I recieved:
Dear Nat
Thanks for your email and enthusiasm for our product. Yes, we do know that a white
chocolate bar would be popular for some people and we would be looking to introduce this in
approximately two years. It takes about two years to get a product into supermarket and in
the meantime we have to increase the sales of our existing lines to convince the
supermarkets to accept another. Every time a new line is introduced another line has to be
taken out. Healthfood stores have similar problems.
We have been very fortunate in that both Coles and Woolworths have just accepted two new
lines of our No Added Sugar chocolate, making 6 lines now available in Coles. We shall also
be introducing a chocolate spread by the end of the year.
To accelerate the introduction of white chocolate we suggest you and your friends eat as
much Sweet William as possible - sales figures determine our ability to get more product on
the shelf.
In the meantime you might like to check out our Chocolate Xmas decorations (see attached).
These will be available in IGA and healthfood stores. We suggest you get in early so as not
to be disappointed.
Nat, thanks again for your support and encouragement.
Best Regards
