Is Scharffen Berger vegan?
Most dark chocolate products are vegan, but no dedicated vegan range or certification is offered.
Vegan means no animal-derived ingredients — beeswax, lanolin, carmine, collagen, silk or milk proteins — anywhere in the formula. It is a separate claim from cruelty-free, and a brand can be one without the other.
