How is 44% bittersweet? It seems too low. Isn't it closer to milk chocolate?

Hi Gina. It's in the medium between dark and milk, it has a pretty great taste though.

I'm eat vegan , do chocolate have milk or not ?

They do not contain milk. This is the ingredients list: sugar, unsweetened chocolate, cocoa fat, soy lecithin added as emulsifier, vanillin (an artificial flavor).

Not sure the Nutritional content. But this is baking chocolate, not like a candy bar. So I would assume it might be the same nutrition as any other baking type of chocolate. This item is more about the flavor.

are you able to freeze the chocolate sticks to conserve between uses or would that decrease the quality substantially?

We do not recommend freezing chocolate as this might lead to loss in quality. The chocolate sticks have a good shelf life (24 months) kept in a cool and dark place, away from direct sunlight or sources of heat.
