Galaxy launches “melt-in-your-mouth” vegan honeycomb bar in Sainsbury’s

From veganfoodandliving.com

Galaxy has launched a vegan honeycomb chocolate bar, extending its dairy-free range with a crunchy, “melt-in-your-mouth” treat.

Galaxy is expanding its plant-based offering with the launch of Galaxy Dairy Free Honeycomb in the UK.

The new 40g bar combines smooth cocoa, rich hazelnut paste and crunchy golden honeycomb pieces, creating a dairy-free alternative for chocolate fans.

According to the brand, the vegan chocolate bar delivers the “signature silky Galaxy taste” with the added texture of “melt-in-your-mouth honeycomb pieces”.

It has been crafted for those following a dairy-free lifestyle and is registered with The Vegan Society.

Like the rest of the Galaxy Dairy Free range, the new Honeycomb bar is made in a completely dairy-free and gluten-free environment.

                     The new Galaxy Dairy Free Honeycomb bar is available at Sainsbury’s stores from 27 April, priced at £1.50.

More from the Galaxy Dairy Free range

The launch of Galaxy Dairy Free Honeycomb follows a series of plant-based releases from the brand.

Galaxy introduced its first vegan chocolate in 2019 and has gradually expanded the range with flavours such as Classic, Orange, Crumbled Cookie and Salted Caramel.

Earlier this year, the brand released a Hazelnut Praline bar featuring a soft praline filling coated in dairy-free chocolate. It also introduced a vegan Fruit and Nut variety, building on the familiar favourites offered in its traditional chocolate range.

Galaxy states that all products in the Galaxy Dairy Free line are created in dedicated facilities to avoid dairy or gluten contamination.

Despite the name, vegan honeycomb chocolate does not contain honey or involve bees.

In confectionery, “honeycomb” usually refers to a crunchy, aerated toffee made with sugar and baking soda.

Galaxy is not the first brand to combine creamy vegan chocolate with crunchy honeycomb. Free From brand Moo Free’s ‘Bunnycomb’ bars are one well-known example of vegan chocolate bars that also feature small chunks of honeycomb.

Meanwhile, other plant-based brands have made vegan alternatives to Cadbury’s popular Crunchie bar.

Buttermilk’s Honeycomb Blast and Mighty Fine’s Mylk Chocolate Honeycomb bars are among those that feature a satisfying slab of honeycomb covered in chocolate, offering a cruelty-free alternative to the original.
