Divine has launched a new range for all dessert lovers

Divine Chocolate has launched a new range of Dessert Bars, inspired by the flavours of popular puddings, such as Tiramisu, Cherry & Almond Bakewell and Lemon Cheesecake.

As the world’s sole farmer-owned Fairtrade chocolate maker, Divine has been doing things differently in the chocolate industry for over a quarter of a century. Now, it's inviting fellow chocolate lovers to ‘do dessert differently’ with the launch of its Dessert Bar range.

The Divine Dessert Bars offer a fuss-free alternative to run-of-the-mill puddings, featuring classic flavour combinations, enrobed in Divine’s signature dark, milk or white chocolate. The Divine Dessert Bars are already available through Amazon.co.uk and www.divinechocolate.co and will be available via Ocado and Oxfam from the beginning of March. RRP £4.49.

This concept offers diners the opportunity to ‘do dessert differently’ with the launch of its brand new Dessert Bar range, a fuss-free approach to after-dinner sweet treats. Offering the fun and frivolity of dessert, but without the faffing about, the Divine Dessert Bars have been specially created to offer the same flavours of our much-loved sweet treats, minus the cooking commitment. 

The Dessert Bar range is perfect for sharing, and includes a variety of three delicious and decadent flavours, guaranteed to impress the chocolate-lover in your life.

As the only farmer-owned Fairtrade chocolate maker in the world, Divine has been doing things differently in the chocolate industry for over 25 years. The launch of its Dessert Bar range is no exception, offering chocolate-lovers an easy alternative to preparing their own pud.

With nearly a quarter (24%) of Waitrose consumers enjoying a dessert at weekends, but 30% confessing to buying more sweet treats than ever before, it’s clear that when it comes to pudding prep, we prefer ready-made to DIY. On a mission to sweeten the dessert scene with effortless and Divinely different sweet treat solutions, Divine’s newly launched Dessert Bar range has been inspired by the flavours of our most popular puds, enrobed in a rich dark, milk or white chocolate coating. 

Encompassing three flavours, spanning the decadence of Cherry & Almond Bakewell to indulgent Tiramisu, and the tart freshness of Lemon Cheesecake, there’s a bar to suit all dessert devotees.

With chocolate the key to many hearts, what better way to express love than by breaking a bar with the chocolate-lover in your life. Perfect for sharing, all you need do is lift the wrapper, divide and devour for a show-stopping pudding.

Sophie Loveday-Davies, who is Group Marketing Director at Divine said: “We’re incredibly excited to be sharing our new range of Dessert Bars with fellow chocolate lovers. We know that in increasingly challenging times, the power of the ‘pudding effect’ is more evident than ever before, with people looking for small tasty treats to brighten the day-to-day. Our mission at Divine is to spread a little joy with our deliciously decadent range of Fairtrade chocolate, so we’re delighted to now be able to offer our customers a Divine-worthy dessert with the launch of our Dessert Bar range. We hope pudding-lovers everywhere will enjoy breaking a bar with the fellow chocolate lover in their life.”
