Plamil Foods

Yummy dairy free Plamil chocolate !

It is an honour that Plamil foods chose to support us. They have a huge range of delicious tasty choccy bars !

Plamil is a private company who have a high standard when it comes to their products. They make sure that everything they produce does as it says on the packet, if it says dairy free, it is dairy free. Guaranteed.

Their history:

As still applies today, Plamil started with nutrition, ethics and the environment high on the agenda. Originally the company was set up in the 1960’s to produce an alternative to dairy milk, producing milk from plants, the original ‘soya milk’ called Plant Milk. PLAnt MILk became Plamil Foods. Gradually from those early years Plamil has diversified to manufacturing a whole range of foods that you see today.

Their products:

Plamil makes a wide range of Award winning products.

Plamil chocolate is almost ‘guilt free indulgence’. With our range of luxury mini chocolate bars together with our dairy free, organic, no added sugar chocolate and carob bars, and scrumptious organic chocolate spread there’s truly something for everyone’s taste.

Our mayo range is just delightful in taste. With no egg, so everyone including those seeking to avoid eggs can enjoy! Becoming ever more popular, the increasing awareness and diagnosis of egg allergy mirrors Plamil’s experience when it first introduced soya milk back in the 1960’s. Manufacturing alternatives to egg based mayo is a natural progression from soya milk, meeting demand for tasty egg free foods. Our Rice based mayo provides a fantastic alternative to both egg & soya based mayo. Plamil’s leading egg free mayo range is a best seller; you only have to taste it to see why!

Some of their products:

Plamil dairy free chocs

Plamil has been making its own chocolate for decades. Our expertise in making quality chocolates ensures each bar is sumptuous tasting with a superfine texture that just melts in the mouth.

In addition to being completely dairy and gluten free our bars are now manufactured in our ‘no nuts used here’ factory.

Dairy free plain, mint and orange chocolate

These rich chocolates are a family favorite, and to our assured dairy free chocolate we add natural mint or orange oil to wonderfully complement the taste of the cocoa.

Alternative to milk chocolate

Our alternative to milk chocolate has all the special qualities of our chocolates, plus even more soy to make this bar ideal for all those who love the taste of dairy milk chocolate without the dairy milk.

Why ‘alternative to’

You may ask, “Why do the dairy free chocolates say ‘alternative to’ on the labels?”. Well, a couple of decades ago the men in grey suits in the EC decided to list soya as an ingredient that would not be allowed in chocolate when describing chocolate in the chocolate labelling regulations! Not surprisingly this went unnoticed for a few decades. Considered as ‘daft’ by all that now see the regulation, it’s still the regulation, so we have to lawfully describe it as ‘alternative to’ although it has more chocolate in it than many dairy chocolate bars. All questions to the men in grey suits please…
