QOA - Unbelievably delicious cocoa-free chocolate

by
QOA is doing for chocolate, what Oatly did for milk by developing the world's first 100% cocoa-free chocolate. Their chocolate tastes & feels like conventional chocolate but at 10x sustainability. By 2035, QOA will replace chocolate in mass-market products.

What are the carbs in this product compared to traditional chocolate. Asking as a type 1 diabetic that only occasionally splurges on chocolate due to the carbs.

@robert_stevens Currently, speaking for this testkit, pretty much like a conventional chocolate. We are currently working on sugarfree / low GI versions.

Would love to try for baking, does it melt like chocolate, can you mimic cocoa powder? Of course will just eat it as is :D
Sara Marquart
@northxnorthcutt glad that you asked! Actually we produce also QOA powder (= cocoa powder). So definitely possible to use it for baking! If there are going to be more requests for baking, we might launch that as well individually!
Colleen Northcutt
@sara_marquart very cool, I'd test that out any time!

Finally a win for the fight against slave labor. I'll bite! Good luck with this initiative.

@rog_h one of my own private motivations! besides the science behind :-P

This looks amazing! But couldn't find an ingredient list anywhere on your site. Love more sustainable forms of food, but know that sometimes that comes at the detriment of health, so curious about what's in QOA.
Sara Marquart
@anu_jayasinghe we were making the packaging in parallel to finalizing our final formula for the kit. The ingredient list reads pretty much like that of a conventional chocolate, but replace the cocoa with "fermented seeds and nuts".

Great idea. What varieties are planned?
Sara Marquart
@david_r5 Currently, we do make a white, dark (comparable to a 55% cocoa) and a milk-type (but dairyfree) QOA. There could be plans in the future to go darker, however, as we love chocolate and cocoa, we think high-% cocoa chocolates, that are sustainably produced, are nothing that we want to challenge right now (other than for people with a cocoa allergy).

QOA sounds really cool… but it will need to be REALLY good to convert my partner… she loves chocolate, especially dark chocolate… our son in preschool when he had to draw a picture of his mom wrote next to it "my mom likes chocolate"… 35 years later the love of chocolate is even more intense :-)
Maximilian Marquart
@trevorml We NEED to test it with your partner! There is dark chocolate in btw!
Trevor Murch-Lempinen
@maximilian_marquart she is VERY particular… tried a few non-cocoa based "chocolate" and they usually just get the "yeah… it's… OK… I guess" :-)
Ken Fricklas
Very curious to try it. What are the nutritional details? Antioxidants? Caloric content? Additives?
Maximilian Marquart
@ken_fricklas1 It is similar to vegan chocolate. No additives, all natural :) We pursue clean label policy.
