New industry-first, sustainable packaging for mini bars and cups also selected as a finalist in the 2025 NEXTY Awards

BOULDER, Colo., March 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Chocolove, the Boulder, Colo.-based leader in chocolate quality, flavor innovation and sustainability for nearly 30 years, will give Natural Products Expo West 2025 attendees a first taste of its three new nut and sea salt bar flavors: Milk Chocolate with Pistachios & Sea Salt, Milk Chocolate with Pecans, Cookies & Sea Salt and Dark Chocolate with Walnuts & Sea Salt. With growing demand for products that deliver on both taste and nutritional value, as well as increased interest in ingredients like pistachios and pecans, the on-trend flavors are sustainable, indulgent and rich in texture, all key elements sought out by today’s consumer.

The innovative new bars that exquisitely combine sweet, salty and savory, were developed and honed to perfection through a meticulous collaboration between Chocolove Founder, Timothy Moley, and the company’s European-trained Master Chocolatier, Patrick Peeters.

“The nuts for each of these bars were thoughtfully sourced, selected and prepared to perfectly complement and balance our smooth and delicious chocolate,” said Master Chocolatier, Patrick Peeters. “The combination of ingredients, including sea salt, results in a unique eating experience in terms of both texture and taste.”

Here are the ingredient and recipe details for the three brand-new bars:

• Milk Chocolate with Pistachios & Sea Salt: The perfect balance of rich, creamy milk chocolate paired with the delicate crunch of roasted pistachios and a hint of sea salt creates a satisfying flavor experience with every bite, complete with antioxidants, healthy fats and fiber.
• Milk Chocolate with Pecans, Cookies & Sea Salt: A comforting blend of velvety milk chocolate and decadent crumbles of cookies, enhanced the by the crunchy richness of pecans makes this bar reminiscent of nostalgic dessert flavors.
• Dark Chocolate with Walnuts & Sea Salt: Bold and sophisticated dark chocolate harmonizes perfectly with the earthy crunch of walnuts and the savory touch of sea salt delivering an elevated taste, as well as omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants.

For a limited time, the new nut bar flavors will be available online at Chocolove.com and Amazon.com in a special six-pack assortment box, with two of each variety, ideal for sampling and gifting. The bars will launch in retail stores nationwide later this year.
