Nut-Free Chocolate UK
We know how difficult it is to find chocolate bars that do not include nuts or are not cross-contaminated during the production process.
Brands and products change their recipes constantly, so to guarantee your safety always double-check the packaging and read the product label yourself every time!
Top 10 Nut-Free Chocolates
1. Maltesers
Maltesers are a classic treat and have been since manufactured by Mars in 1937. You have got to love Maltesers. They have a malted milk centre with a milk chocolate surrounding. They are delicious.
Everyone knows and loves Maltesers, so it is a chocolate lover’s dream that they are nut-free too.
2. Munchies
Munchies are another British classic. They were launched in 1957 by Nestle. They have a soft caramel centre on top of a soft biscuit base covered in chocolate.
They are available in a tube or a sharing bag. I know which one I would choose!
3. Kinder Chocolate
Kinder is Italian-made chocolate. They have a creamy milk filling covered in chocolate.
These treats are perfect for children but shouldn’t stop adults from tucking in.
They are a real treat and nut-free.
4. Cadbury Twirl
Twirls manufactured by Cadbury have two fingers of indulgent nut-free chocolate swirls. This chocolate bar is guaranteed to melt in your mouth.
Cadbury also has hot chocolate options, which are also nut-free, perfect for the colder months.
5. KitKat Mini
Nestle has committed to a Peanut Free promise. So much so that they put a ‘Peanut Free’ logo on their mini-sized favourites (KitKat, Aero and Smarties) exclusively made in their Peanut Free facility.
Nestle has officially stated that if the product does not contain nuts but has been manufactured in an area where it may have come into contact with nuts or nut-containing products, the statement ‘may contain nut traces’ will be present at the end of the ingredients list.
As of 2020, Nestle has released a PDF of all snacks, chocolates, and coffees suitable for a nut avoidance diet.
6. Cadbury Chocolate Buttons
Little chocolate buttons that are so delightful. I love using this nut-free chocolate from Cadbury as chocolate chips in baking. They have mini bags and sharing bags, so ideal for any occasion big or small.
7. NOMO
NOMO is the UK’s number one vegan and ‘free from’ chocolate brand. So you can expect great things from NOMO!
They have an amazingly wide range of free-from products including:
- Caramel
- Fruit & Crunch
- Hazelnot Crunch
- Choc Orange Crunch
- Chocolate buttons
- & Advent calendars
8. Hotel Chocolat Free From Range
Hotel Chocolat offers a luxurious Free From Range which offers:
- Dark Batons – Free From
- Free From Slabs
They are dairy, gluten, wheat and nut-free! Perfect for everyone and also as a nut-free chocolate gift! Their chocolate is dark, rich, smooth and creamy as you would expect from Hotel Chocolat.
9. Smarties
Another Nestle product to provide nut-free goods! This time it is Smarties.
The following products are all nut-free: Smarties Tube, Mini Smarties, Smarties Milk Chocolate Bar & Sharing Block and Smarties Little Bar!
What a treat.
10. Kinnerton Chocolate Lollies
Kinnerton has been making nut-free chocolate since 1999 and invested over £1 million into ensuring their factories and products are nut-free.
Kinnerton offers amazing chocolates for kids including a Peppa Pig, Paw Patrol, and a Barbie range. This brand can and will satisfy all kids or adults.
