I think I may have mentioned my deep and undying love for chocolate before….during one of my many chocolate giveaways on here, Facebook, twitter and Instagram or maybe when I was visiting Exeter Vegan Market or was it when I was reviewing heavenly chocolate cake or off-the-shelf dreamy chocolate desserts!
So you get the picture, I like chocolate and I’m soooooo pleased to be doing another vegan chocolate giveaway now * so THREE of you get to try Plamil’s new range of So free vegan chocolate. Read on for your chance to win some vegan chocolate!
All of the chocolate Plamil makes is dairy free and gluten free and made in their own ‘no nuts’ factory. Their latest range which I was incredibly lucky to sample is completely vegan using 100% plant power! The range includes Certified organic and Fairtrade bars. I was also impressed to find out that they are all ethically made by Plamil with renewable energy. Go Plamil !
Now I could talk about chocolate until the cows come home (to a loving lifelong vegan sanctuary!) but I don’t imagine you’ve got all day so here are the highlights through the taste buds of me and my family.
There are 11 varieties in the range and my absolute favourite was the Espresso Dark Chocolate. The smell was incredible from opening the packet and the taste simply sensational. I also really liked the Organic Perfectly Dark 72% Chocolate. It was creamy and delicate. If you don’t usually like dark chocolate then this one is for you.
I have grown to appreciate orange flavour in chocolate as I’ve got older and the So Free Tropical Orange Organic Dark Chocolate is delicious. Plamil have been making organic chocolate for over 15 years and it’s great to see that several bars in this range are organic. There’s also Hemp Seed Dark Chocolate which tastes very earthy and Milk Chocolate which my kids loved. The White Chocolate was not too sweet like so many white chocolates. The Cool Mint Dark Chocolate smells sooooo minty when you open the packet. I preferred the taste of the Intense Mint Organic Dark Chocolate. Really rich and grown up. Perfect with a cuppa and a good book!
You can buy all of these delightful bars of wonderment either direct from the Plamil website or from places like Holland & Barrett and a range of online ethical superstores.
You can enjoy one of these three 35g bars of So Free Chocolate below simply by adding a comment below telling us which of the three bars you would most like to win. Our giveaway ends at midnight on July 31st 2018 when we’ll randomly select three winners. It’s open to anyone inside or outside the UK. One entry per person.

I never see vegan mint or white chocolate these days!
Shame as they do seem quite popular Tina! 🙂
Finest Dark Chocolate would be my choice out of these three (and I’ll definitely be looking out for the Espresso one) x
Ooh do let me know what you think on here if you try the Espresso won’t you Helen 🙂
I’d love to win the milk chocolate one 🙂
Best of luck Georgia 🙂
It’s dark chocolate all the way for me!
Good choice Katy 🙂
I have never tried a Plamil chocolate that I didn’t like! I love them all!
Perfect comp for you then Sarah 🙂
Got to love some vegan white chocolate
You don’t see it too often do you Mary! 🙂
Hi Mary – you’re one of the winners. Please email me your address sdpavey@gmail.com thanks, Sharon x
I would most love to win the finest dark chocolate; I usually go for dark chocolate, but I am always happy to try all kinds of chocolate occasionally for a change. 🙂
Best of luck Susanna, thanks for entering 🙂
Hmm, so much choice. Intrigued by the milk chocolate alternative.
I don’t think you’d be disappointed Maria x
It’s close but I think the dark mint just wins over the dairy milk alternative. My fingers are crossed!
….and your toes Gemma?! 😉
Minty goodness for meeeeeee! X
You are minty goodness Naomi 😉 xxx
My son has decided to make the transition from veggie to vegan. I’m already vegan so am obviously over the moon. He loves milk chocolate so I would like to win this one for him. If I’m lucky he’ll let me have some too.
I’m sure he’ll share it with you Sian 🙂
Oooh, dark for me! Closely followed by the mint. <3
Dark is a classic really Sarah – good choice! 😉
As a vegan newbie, I’m still finding my feet.. and searching for a tasty milk chocolate alternative! Help a sister out!
Congrats on making the switch Joanne. There are so many vegan chocolates out there, have fun trying them all 🙂
I haven’t found any vegan choc I like yet ……. would be very excited with any of them but dark!
I think you need to make more effort Lisa! 😉
Either dark chocolate for me, or milk chocolate for my youngest!!
A treat for one of you Emma, good luck 🙂
Ooh hard to choose, but I’m a die hard coffee lover so it has to be Espresso for me. Plamil products all the way!! X
Yup that Espresso is good Faye! 🙂
Dark dark dark chocolate because YES. But what about this mint now? I could be curious
Curiouser and curiouser said Steve…! 😉
Definately the mint flavour! It has the dark chocolate i like plus the mint that maybe my boys will like (and the husband) my 7 month old cant have dairy and i bought some dairy free little coins and let him have a taste….which he clearly liked and my 3 yr old didnt even notice any difference. 😀 i will be looking out for the expresso flavour for myself for sure!!! #tiredmama
Yeah that Espresso is the bees knees Karina! 🙂
Mmmmm what a great review. The chocolate that I would love to win would be the Dark Espresso, the white chocolate and the mint🤤! Funny enough my partner and myself have tried the “so free orange” chocolate before, I did have to question whether I was in heaven or not!!!
Thanks Helenna – it’s good stuff isn’t it! 😉
Ooh mint chocolate… Drool, makes me think of mint chocolate chip ice cream – which I have yet to find a vegan version of! 🙁
Thanks Jacqueline – surely there must be vegan mint choc chip ice cream somewhere?! I’m not a fan myself but Dan & Tasha are.
Hi Jacqueline – you’re one of the winners. Please email me your address sdpavey@gmail.com thanks, Sharon x
Definitely the mint one for me 😊😊😊
Mint is a great choice – very refreshing 😉
I’d love to try the milk chocolate alternative. I’ve never found a vegan chocolate that I like, can’t believe I didn’t see these at Exeter Vegan Market yesterday, it was busy and I was shopping with small children!
Best of luck Karen x
I would love the espresso, mint and orange ones. Thanks!
My pleasure Diane – I wish you luck 😉

Sounds mint to me Clare! 😉
I’d love to try the milk chocolate. It’s the one thing I miss.
Yes there’s not so many vegan milk chocs out there
The Tropical orange bar is my pick! I came across Plamil for the first time 4 years ago while on vacation in Berlin. The Veganz grocery store stocked it. I got the chocolate orange sauce and it was amazing! Sadly you can’t find it in the US.
Changing mine to the dark chocolate since the orange isn’t a choice.
But you can find it in the shops👍🏽
Milk chocolate for me 🙂 Haven’t tried Plamil! I wonder if it’s available here in the US
Mint Dark Chocolate and vegan too – my favourite!!!! 🙂
Thanks Charlotte – best of luck x
The cool mint dark chocolate for me please. Love minty goodness and since going vegan I have a new found appreciation for dark chocolate.
They say dark chocolate is good for you too Clare! 🙂
Hi, It’s a difficult choice but I’d like to sample the milk chocolate plamil 😛
Awesome choice Rachel x

Milk chocolate! It’s so hard to come by vegan.
It certainly is Anna x
I loved choccie-mint in my pre-vegan days, so I’d like to sample this version which I’m sure is infinitely better… 😉
It certainly is good Kate x
As a newbie to vegan choc, the milk chocolate alternative would be great to try.
I think I’d like to try the the Tropical Orange Dark Chocolate….if I had to choose! Secretly, I’d like to try them all! 😜
Your secret is safe with us Clare! 😉
Most definitely intrigued by the hemp seed chocolate! How you described the dark chocolate has already made my mouth water and we need more espresso choc!!
Espresso is the best! Xx
I would love to win the milk chocolate as that’s the chocolate my kids love the most. I’m a lover of all chocolate so all of them sound amazing and I’m definitely going to be on the look out to buy them!!
