There are indeed plenty of functional companies out there, combining effective ingredients with formats like beverage, on-the-go snacks, and even baking mixes. Something we haven’t seen before, or at least to this extent, is truly functional chocolate treats, which is precisely what the relatively new brand The Functional Chocolate Company is all about.
The Functional Chocolate Company makes a family of delicious chocolate blocks, each enhanced with a handful of ingredients to support a functional benefit. The chocolate itself uses Fair Trade 60% cacao for that mouthwatering chocolate experience, providing a nutrition profile of a gram of protein, 3g of carbohydrates, 2g of fat, and 42 calories in each 8g square.
There are six different blocks of chocolate from The Functional Chocolate Company, all named after the effect or area the added ingredients intend to support. The lineup consists of Carefree Chocolate, Rhythm Chocolate, Sleepy Chocolate featuring the likes of chamomile, PharmaGABA, and valerian root, Hot Chocolate, Sexy Chocolate, and Energy Chocolate with ashwagandha, maca, tyrosine, green tea extract, and a few others.
The Functional Chocolate Company is certainly a unique brand, bringing a respectable functional twist to a food format we had yet to see done to this level. If you’d like to get a closer look at all of the brand’s delicious and beneficial chocolate, check out its website and online store at funcho.co, where all of its infused chocolate costs $7.49 for a full 50g block.
