The Best Dairy-Free Valentine Chocolate To Give and To Receive

2022 Update! Holiday deadlines quickly approach when it comes to ordering gifts online. So, I’m getting the jump on my best dairy-free Valentine chocolate round-up now. Make sure to order soon if you want your sweet gift to arrive in time. Of course, you’ll still be able to purchase from these vegan-friendly chocolatiers (over 25 of them!) well beyond Valentine’s Day. But why not make someone’s February special?

The Best Dairy-Free Valentine Chocolate To Give and To Receive

This primary round-up includes options available in the United States, and many of them are sold in Canadian stores. Some of these chocolatiers also ship direct to Canadian customers. For dairy-free Valentine chocolate options in the United Kingdom, see the separate list near the end of this post.

Allergen Notes: All items listed below were dairy-free by ingredients at the time of our review. But ingredients are subject to change at any time, and all products are at some degree of risk for allergen cross contamination. If you are concerned about potential cross contamination of an allergen, always contact the company to discuss their ingredient sourcing and allergen protocols before purchasing. Only you can decide what is safe for your needs.

Fames Chocolates

This Brooklyn chocolatier has been around since 1948, but somehow they didn’t hit our radar until last year. They are reportedly a completely kosher pareve and milk-free company, but double check for your own needs when placing an order. They do use other top allergens to make their dairy-free gifts, which range from Assorted Chocolate Gift Boxes to Unique Chocolate-Covered Assortments.

No Whey Chocolate

Hearts and roses are a year-round theme with this completely dairy-free, top allergen-free chocolatier. But, their “milk” and white chocolate hearts and holiday-themed truffle boxes are in full force for this beloved season. The head chocolatier, Yochy, usually introduces some new dairy-free Valentine chocolate items every year. But this year, we were happy to see several return items, like those very chic chocolate heels and the two-toned heart lollipops.

Gnosis Chocolate

Gnosis is the oldest, most beloved, raw vegan chocolatier, and I’m happy to announce that they have a wonderful line of Valentine gifts. In addition to stunning truffle boxes, they have a 14 Days of Love Advent Countdown Valentine’s Day Calendar. Gnosis chocolates are certified vegan and organic, and made on their own equipment without dairy, soy, or gluten.

Purdy’s

Oh yes, their vegan line continues to deliver – in both the U.S. and Canada. Purdy’s dairy-free Valentine’s Day chocolate assortment includes heart boxes of those amazing Georgia Browns and Hawaiian Black Salt Caramels. They’re also producing vegan mylk chocolate cupids and some love-themed dark chocolate treats.

Endangered Species

They haven’t begun making truffles (yet!), but Endangered Species has released a special Valentine’s Day box of bars, complete with pretty hearts and deep, dark chocolate, dairy-free flavors. It even includes one of their oatmilk varieties!

Divine Treasures

This Connecticut based chocolatier has been getting a bit more whimsical. Their classic truffle boxes have been replaced with more creative Valentine’s Day shapes and delights. They claim to be diabetic-friendly, I believe because their products are vegan and they use natural, low-glycemic sweeteners. But check with them to be sure – they have great allergen labeling but limited ingredient information.

Amanda’s Own

Kid-friendly chocolates in loving shapes, all made with care in their dairy-free, egg-free, gluten-free, peanut-free, soy-free, and tree nut-free facility. In recent years, Beth, Amanda’s mom and the company founder, has upped their game with pretty conversation hearts, new molds, special food allergy-friendly teal packages, and even long-stem rose chocolates.

Sjaak’s

Year’s ago, this “traditional” chocolatier went completely vegan, and never looked back. I put traditional in quotes, because Sjaak’s has always gone far beyond the norm with creative flavors and cute designs made with organic, fair trade chocolate. And this year, they have an epic Valentine’s Day collection with all types of dairy-free filled chocolate hearts, chocolate bars, and truffles.

Raaka

This fine chocolatier specializes in gourmet chocolate bars, and their entire line is vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free, soy-free, and organic. They offer milky varieties made with coconut milk and oat milk, and have special flavors for the holidays, like Valentine’s Day. This year, they’re offering rose cardamom, strawberry swirl, and some ther delights.

Chocolate Emporium

This on again, off again dairy-free chocolatier seems to be back for good, but their collection keeps evolving. You can count on them for beautiful classic heart-shaped boxes of chocolate, but they also have some unique offerings. This year, we’re enamored by their lovely chocolate pop collection with white chocolate peppermint hearts, chocolate roses, and more. As a heads up, this year Chocolate Emporium is not producing a peanut-free, tree nut-free line, like they have in the past.

Rawmio Chocolate Hearts

For your sugar conscious loved ones, these little chocolate hearts are sweetened with coconut sugar, and come in raw dark chocolate, orange chocolate, and mint chocolate. They also have a sugar-free keto chocolate heart option that’s sweetened with monk fruit and erythritol.

Rose City Chocolatier

Rose City churns out vegan chocolates with elegant style. Carefully crafted assorted chocolates or cordial cherries arrive in one of their gourmet boxes (you can choose from several looks). Their chocolates are made with imported Belgian dark chocolate, but be sure to select the “vegan” option. They also make dairy-based chocolates.

Mama Ganache

Formerly known as Sweet Earth Chocolates, Mama Ganache has kept the tradition of producing a line of vegan chocolate. As an added bonus, Mama Ganache uses fair trade and organic chocolate and her vegan chocolate is soy-free (made without soy lecithin!). At our time of review this year, Mama has the truffles shown below in her lovely heart-shaped boxes. Just pick your box of choice and then select the “Vegan” truffle option.

Lake Champlain Chocolates

This traditional chocolatier has expanded their vegan dark chocolate line to include more seasonal options. For Valentine’s Day, they offer dark chocolate hearts, vegan chocolate truffles, plus some other goodies.

Chocolate Inspirations

Chocolate Inspirations is an interesting hybrid confection maker – they churn out creative and fun sweets, but also cater heavily to corporate. They have a core chocolatier underpinning, but they offer a huge array of brittles, toffees, and even “peanut butter pillows” that are dairy-free, along with some pretty Valentine-specific gifts. This year they have caramel heart and peanut butter heart truffles, oreo bark, and more.

Daydream Dessert

They use “nourishing” ingredients to make indulgently-flavored truffles, like cookie dough, pecan pie, and fudge brownie. Their entire selection is dairy-free and gluten-free, while some are vegan and some are paleo. They don’t have specific Valentine chocolate, but their truffle boxes speak to all gifting holidays.

Neto Chocolatier

This small-batch Brooklyn company is dairy-free, nut-free, gluten-free, vegan, and kosher parve. And their truffles are positively stunning. Their pretty treats include various boxes, chocolate-covered Oreos, chocolate lollipops, and more.

Monty Bojangles

This British chocolatier makes a vegan line of truffles that isn’t heart shaped, but it does have definite appeal for Valentine’s Day. Their tower includes cocoa berry blush, caramel haze, and cocoa nib nights.

For: Dairy-Free, Vegan

Fine & Raw Chocolate

Everything they make is dairy-free, plant-based, organic, and sweetened with coconut sugar. They offer chocolate truffles and bars throughout the year, but for Valentine’s Day they have a sweet chocolate bar set and a chocolate truffle box.

Lagusta’s Luscious

Lagusta started out years ago with her handmade vegan truffle boxes. As her popularity grew, so did her product line. Today, Lagusta offers a wide variety of truffles, bluestocking bonbons, bark, caramels, and toffees. And everything is still artisan-crafted and hand packaged. Her entire product line screams Valentine’s Day, but with some very unique variations. Let’s just say, this dairy-free Valentine chocolate collection is an experience.

Cococlectic

They don’t have a Valentine-specific box, but this is the gorgeous, high-end gift that keeps on giving. It’s a vegan, bean-to-bar chocolate subscription service. You can read more about it on my Cococlectic Review.

Ethereal Confections

This completely dairy-free and gluten-free chocolatier even has a storefront in Woodstock, IL. But, you can buy their delicious confections from anywhere in the U.S. For richness, they use coconut milk and coconut oil, rather than soy, and they offer a delightful dairy-free valentine chocolate range, from boxed truffles to filled hearts to chocolate-covered cherries with stem still in tact!

Coracao

This paleo-friendly, vegan-friendly chocolatier offers their ‘You Are Loved’ Collection of chocolates. These 100% organic truffle assortments are sweetened with low-glycemic coconut sugar. They don’t provide allergen information on their website, so we’re not sure if their products are made on shared lines. Contact them directly to inquire if you have severe allergy concerns.

Amore di Mona

For the low-glycemic, vegan, healthy, or allergic loved one in your life, I highly recommend this wonderful line of confections. Even though I indulge in “ordinary” dairy-free chocolate, I adored Amore di Mona and yearned for more of their buttery, low-glycemic pure chocolate bar (just 4 grams of sugar in 1.25 ounces!). Plus, this brand is allergen-safe, including peanut-free, tree nut-free, soy-free, and dairy-free (obviously!). And they now have special dairy-free Valentine chocolate boxes just for the season.

Sweet Pete’s

This is another “traditional” chocolatier that also has a line of dairy-free offerings. For Valentine’s Day they always have some vegan goodies. This year, that  includes boxes of vegan truffles and assorted gift baskets. Many of their goodies are manufactured in a gluten-free facility, but be sure to ask about potential cross-contamination for top allergens, including dairy, if a concern for you. Some items seemed to have “may contain” warnings while others did not.

Lulu’s Chocolate

Lulu’s shares the love year round but Valentine’s Day is when this “everyday” raw chocolatier shines! Their logo is a heart and it carries over into all of their gift-worthy bars, truffles, and specialty chocolates. Plus, they use coconut sugar to sweeten for lower GI chocolate that we like to think is more “heart healthy”. As for allergens, Lulu says, “We do process tree nuts but never process dairy, soy or gluten.”

Creek House Handcrafted Find Chocolates

This is a small, traditional chocolatier that is slowly being overtaken with an organic vegan truffle line. Most of their products and raves are for the dairy-free selection! They offer pretty vegan truffle boxes like the one pictured below all year.

Oh Nuts!

This isn’t a dairy-free company, but they do have a big line of certified kosher parve, dairy-free chocolate products. For Valentine’s Day, we love the chocolate message hearts and the boisterous non-dairy truffle box. They also offer a few parve sugar-free truffle options! Please note that some of their truffles contain egg white, so they aren’t strictly vegan. But their message hearts and other parve solid chocolate appear to be plant-based.

Miami Beach Chocolates

Hearts and teddy bears are the Valentine’s Day themes at this kosher chocolatier. They do make both milk and parve chocolates, so be sure to order the parve (dairy-free) ones. They offer a great selection of edible heart boxes in addition to some chocolate bundles.

Honorable Mention: Delicacies Lollipops

I know, it isn’t chocolate, but these pretty organic hearts deserve mention. Delicacies makes gourmet organic and vegan lollipops, in small batches, to order. They come in flavors like brilliant Cherry, romantic Champagne, and fragrant Cinnamon Saffron, and you can order any flavor in their sweet heart shape. They arrive individually packaged in a pretty box for the perfect sweet gift. This is a Canadian company, but they ship throughout North America.

* We have good reason to believe that this chocolatier processes their dairy-free products in a facility or on a line where dairy might be present. But always contact the manufacturer when a severe or sensitive food allergy is the concern to discuss their processes and allergen protocols. There are no guarantees when it comes to potential cross contamination with a food allergen!

Dairy-Free Valentine Chocolate Gifts in the U.K.

Those listed above are mostly for North America (yes, many are available to Canadians!), but the dairy-free chocolate options are expanding in the U.K., too. The following chocolatiers offer dairy-free valentine chocolate delights:

• Montezuma’s Chocolate – This is a traditional chocolatier, but they offer vegan chocolates too!
• D&D Chocolates – They specialize in dairy-free and gluten-free chocolate confections and carob treats.
• Moo Free Chocolates – I have also seen this dairy-free brand available from some online retailers in North America. It is a popular line.
• Booja Booja – Truly gourmet truffles for an elegant gift.
• Animal Aid – Another online retailer, but all of the chocolates they carry are suitable for vegans.

Important Notes

Be Allergen Aware: If your special diet needs are particular, please read this article carefully and inquire with the manufacturer prior to purchasing. I have included notes on what “free-from” needs the chocolatiers cater to (including soy-free and nut-free!), and if we’ve read that they use shared equipment in production (see the star note above). However, products, ingredients and processes may change at any time. Always double check with the manufacturer before purchasing or consuming any food whenever there is a food allergy concern.

On Gluten: The above chocolates that are noted as “gluten-free” are made without gluten or wheat, according to their ingredient lists. But, cross-contamination with gluten could be a potential for some of these companies; always double check with the manufacturer on their production processes if cross-contaminaion issues are a concern for you.

Taste: We have not sampled all of the chocolates below. For our thoughts on the ones that we have trialed, see our dairy-free chocolate reviews.
