NOMO Wins Best Vegan Chocolate At Vegan Food Awards

NOMO’s Caramel Chocolate Bar has won the most prestigious award at the Vegan Food UK awards – regarded as the nation’s largest online vegan food event.  

The annual award is now in its fourth year with thousands of people taking part by voting for their favourite vegan products of the year by a multitude of brands.  

It's a fantastic success of NOMO - the UK’s number one free-from chocolate brand since its 2019 inception - driven by ‘nomies’ the brand's loyal fans.

The win is a brilliant way to end Veganuary – with new NOMO research finding a fifth of Brits are thought to have taken part, with the number considering a plant-based diet doubling since last year. The research also found that Brits were 38% more likely to try vegan chocolate this year, compared to last – with one in five picking up a bar.

Caramel is one of the nation’s favourite flavours and NOMO wanted to create a smooth, gooey caramel bar that both vegans and allergy sufferers could enjoy. Made with a non-dairy alternative to milk chocolate, with a vegan caramel-flavoured centre, it is completely vegan and free from dairy, gluten, egg and nuts.

Jacqueline Tyrrell, Brand Manager of NOMO said: “We are honoured to be recognized within these prestigious awards amongst so many other respected brands, especially as it was voted for by over 42,000 UK vegans! NOMO offer all the flavours and formats that are available in mainstream confectionary so that vegans and allergy sufferers do not miss out on the great taste of chocolate – whilst also making it easier for mainstream consumers to try vegan products through simple direct swaps. This is something NOMO prides itself on and we are so pleased our loyal fans continue to love our products as much as we do!”  

The award cements the astounding success NOMO has had over the past year, selling almost £8 million in value sales and 297.9 tonnes of chocolate – the equivalent to 24 double decker buses – to help it record a 52.8% growth since 2020.    

NOMO products are available to purchase from The Vegan Kind Supermarket - the UK's favourite supermarket with planet-friendly products.
