Organic Snacks # 1: Chocolate from Original Beans<\/span><\/h4>\n

Eating chocolate and doing good<\/strong>? It has never been so easy. Thanks to the smart concept of Original Beans<\/strong>, not only rare but unfortunately endangered cocoa beans<\/strong> are protected – with each bar sold, a tree<\/strong> is also planted in the rainforest. The carefully selected varieties are purchased directly from the smallholders on site and training<\/strong> in sustainable farming<\/strong> is still on top. Plus: the beautiful packaging of this delicacy is also fully compostable<\/strong> and the entire company is climate-positive<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The original Beans motto? Making the world better with better chocolate <\/div><\/div><\/span><\/h4>\n

And the chocolate? Behind each of the outrageously delicious varieties is a fascinating story and a project. My current favorite? Esmeraldas Milk<\/strong> with Fleur de Sel, which comes from the last Pacific rainforest in Ecuador. Feel like? Chocolate for 3.95 euros at originalbeans.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Organic Snacks # 2: Cocoa Bars by Pana Cacao<\/span><\/h4>\n

Vegan, raw, gluten-free, without soy, no added sugar<\/strong> – what sounds like maximum health with minimal enjoyment is all, utmost delight. Bites for bites. This small, 45-gram<\/strong>, handmade, Australian, naturally eco-certified chocolate bar fell into my hands at the beginning of the year at Fashion Week in Berlin and I put it aside for the emergency described above. In fact, I discovered it in my luggage only in Munich and as luck would have it, it was snack time.<\/strong> A single bite catapulted me into seventh chocolate heaven<\/strong>. Delightfully refreshing with coconut and goji berries! At this point, I must apologize again probably that I did not think the really nicely packaged bar. I hope he has forgiven me, because now he belongs to my unfortunately not quite cheap standard repertoire. Want to try? Coconut Goji<\/strong> is currently on sale for 2.49 euros. The entire repertoire of Pana Cacao is here<\/a><\/p>\n

Organic Snacks # 3: Snack Balls by Mission More<\/span><\/h4>\n

Perfect alternative to chocolate are the Superfood Snack Balls<\/strong>. At the moment I’m really into the variation of coconut maca guarana<\/strong> and what I particularly love about the delicious balls is that they are produced on a date-fruit basis and are completely sugar-free<\/strong>. That is, they provide decent and long-term energy and do not result in the low-effective short-term energy boost of refined sugar that disappears as quickly as it did.<\/p>\n

The mission? The most sinful taste, derived from natural ingredients. <\/div><\/div><\/span><\/h4>\n

The only thing that really bothers me is the packaging. Six balls in my opinion oversized packaging – there is still room for improvement. I urgently need to inquire about a plastic-free solution. Blueberry, Chia Cranberry \/ lemon<\/strong> or just coconut \/ maca \/ guarana<\/strong> are available for 1.95 Euro at foodist.de<\/a><\/p>\n

Organic Snacks # 4: Barrel Marshmellow Bars<\/span><\/h4>\n

That the Belgians have a knack for chocolate is not new. Not for nothing did my Belgian grandfather always hoard an extra-large portion of chocolate<\/strong> in his closet, which was guarded with arrogance when the family invaded him. It was only piecemeal enough … But this pleasure object here is still a very different number anyway, because here meets the darkest chocolate<\/strong> on fluffy marshmellow<\/strong> and wonderfully surprising salty caramel<\/strong>. In sum, that results in … Well, you have to find out yourself. Only so much: once bitten, never forgotten! Incidentally, the Marsh Mellows are still stirred and cut by hand at the young start-up. The caramel is prepared according to an old house recipe. And of course there are no chemical colors<\/strong> or any nasty taste enhancers<\/strong>. And they are in the 6-pack for 9.95 euros at baru.be<\/a><\/p>\n

Organic Snacks # 5: Coconut water from Tropicai<\/span><\/h4>\n

Hello? Coconut water? This is about snacks! And that’s exactly what coconut water<\/strong> is for me. Deliciously refreshing and wonderfully healthy, coconut water has already replaced a chocolate snack. It is not for nothing that this beverage has been prized around the world as a natural “isotonic” drink<\/strong> before it has come out of nowhere.<\/p>\n

Fills up empty storages and brings holiday feeling to our latitudes. <\/div><\/div><\/span><\/h4>\n

King Coconut <\/strong>comes from Sri Lanka and is made from one (and I mean ONE per bottle) orange coconut. Tropicai (by the way, I also have coconut blossom sugar at home from this label) is committed to sustainable cultivation and cooperation with fairly paid smallholders<\/strong> in Sri Lanka. Plus:<\/strong> vegan, gluten and lactose free and preservative free and artificial sweetener. For 2.49 euros at tropicai.com<\/a> Incidentally, there are also as “Minty Melon”<\/strong> and “Pineapple Passion”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Organic Snacks # 6: Herbal Tea by Detox Delight<\/span><\/h4>\n

And because I think that tea and chocolate<\/strong> is a unique combination, here’s my current favorite tea. Who feeds a lot of chocolate & Co. can drink a detox tea<\/strong> in between. The herbal tea is a wonderfully fresh blend of lemon grass, coriander, cinnamon, ginger and mint. And so in the pretty box is pretty much everything that makes a favorite tea<\/strong> for me. All organic, of course. My ideal at this very moment? Wonderfully comfortable lying on the couch, with a pot of tea, a good book and a (or two) delicious piece of chocolate … And the box also has a connection use – my daughter wants her as a treasure chest for her earrings. By the way, my tea is still from Detox Delight<\/strong>. The Munich label has renamed itself and is now called Tea Delight<\/strong>. The tea is available for 17 euros at pure-delight.de<\/a><\/p>\n
