Description

Dairy-free chocolate chips are small pieces of chocolate made without any milk-derived ingredients, ideal for people with lactose intolerance, allergies, or those following a vegan diet. Their texture and flavor allow them to be used in a wide variety of recipes, from baked desserts like cookies, brownies, and muffins, to decorating ice creams and other sweets.

Chocolate has its origins in Central and South America, where indigenous peoples were the first to cultivate the cacao and harness its benefits. Dairy-free chips are made by processing cocoa paste, sugar, and cocoa butter without adding milk, thus maintaining a more authentic and purer cocoa flavor.

Among their properties, they stand out as a source of natural antioxidants, contributing to cardiovascular health and providing an immediate energy boost thanks to their content of sugars and healthy fats. Furthermore, as they contain no dairy, they are a suitable option for diets free of animal products or for those with allergies.

In Latin America, dairy-free chocolate chips may also be known as vegan chocolate drops, milk-free chocolate chips, or simply vegan chips, terms that vary by country but refer to the same ingredient.
