The Best Dairy-Free Valentine Chocolate To Give and To Receive
2024 Update! We started this dairy-free Valentine chocolate round-up over fifteen years ago(!) and it’s still going strong. It’s always live, but in the month leading up to Valentine’s Day, we make necessary little tweaks to update this guide. Holiday deadlines quickly approach when it comes to buying gifts online, so 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 the beloved holiday. But why not make someone’s February special?
Clockwise from top, Sweet Vegan Chocolates, Ethereal Confections, and Dallman Confections.
