We initially reviewed Lake Champlain Dark Chocolate Bars about a decade ago. At the time, they didn’t seem to be taking dairy-free very seriously. They had a few dark varieties that just happened to be non-dairy and soy-free since they use high quality, all natural ingredients. But now Lake Champlain has an entire organic vegan section on their website that’s filled with numerous dark chocolate bars, bites, and other confections. Several are even available in stores.

We have details below on all vegan varieties, including some that come in bite-sized squares. But if you can’t decide, they have a Vegan Chocolate Bar Library that includes a whole assortment.
