Milk Chocolate with Hazelnuts
This is a mass-market confection rather than a health-focused chocolate; sugar is the primary ingredient and the low cocoa percentage fails to meet the 70%+ threshold for flavanol benefits. While the brand uses certified sustainable cocoa and real cocoa butter, it lacks the heavy metal transparency and non-alkalized processing required for a higher grade.
