WHAT THEY
SAID:
The Seattle
Times: "Wax Orchards, makers of some darn good chocolate
sauce for sundaes, baking and, as often as not, eating right out of
the jar; a sauce that has been the salvation of dieters, diabetics
and chocolate lovers across the country."
Gourmet Magazine: "Heavenly, wholesome hot fudge- a rich yet
non-fat chocolate". Sugar-free, too! "
Prevention Magazine: "classic fudge sauce satisfies deep fudge
yearnings. Luscious"
The Natural Way: "A line of unbelievably rich but virtually
fat-free fudge sauces that will satisfy the cravings of the most craven
chocoholic." This was in their first edition.
The American Diabetes Association: "Guilt-Free Indulgence"
FOR THE HEALTH OF IT:
"Recently cocoa &
chocolate products have been identified as a dietary source of
antioxidants called polyphenols." From the trade magazine Functional
Foods
and Neutraceuticals . Per the chart below,
Wax Orchards dark chocolate class is at the top of the list, with
double the value of #2.
Why are antioxidants
important?
Because they keep our veins
and arteries clear of platelets that can clog them. In many
ways they keep our blood vessels healthy.
Wax Orchards chocolates have the extra healthy advantage
of being free of the added fat that is usually in chocolate products.
