Whittaker's Oat Milk chocolate

After much hype, Whittaker's has officially announced its latest offering: Oat Milk, a plant-based alternative to milk chocolate. Mad Chapman delivers her ...

Unlike creamy milk (delectably melts in your mouth) or classic dark (delectably melts in your mouth a little bit slower), the Oat Milk chocolate was firm and had virtually no immediate flavour. So not only were they venturing into a new realm in plant-based chocolate but they also decided to make the oat milk themselves? Its creamy milk block is arguably the best staple block of chocolate in the world, so as someone who has a mild-to-moderate dairy allergy (meaning if I ate half a block I would simultaneously turn into a hive and shit myself) I desperately wanted Oat Milk to be good. We heard a whisper on the wind that an oat milk chocolate was on its way, courtesy of the country’s best chocolate makers. The first warning signs were in the scent. Here I was thinking that an Oat Milk chocolate would substitute dairy milk for oat milk and, bada bing bada boom, a vegan classic is born.
