Dr. Bronner’s New Magic All-One Chocolate  

Dr. Bronner’s is producing luscious, organic, fair trade and vegan chocolate bars with chunky bites and smooth rich and decadent fillings, based in 70% dark chocolate from cocoa beans grown using regenerative organic practices, and sweetened with lower-glycemic coconut sugar. Born from the company’s industry-leading socially and environmentally responsible supply chain and developed with the expertise of world-class Swiss chocolatiers and industry experts—this is a chocolate experience like no other. Magic All-One Chocolate is on track to become Regenerative Organic Certified in 2023, and with this regenerative organic and fair trade cocoa supply chain the company seeks to demonstrate that chocolate can truly be a transformative product that uplifts tastebuds, body and soul, as well as helps mitigate climate change and support small-scale farmers globally. Dr. Bronner’s Magic All-One Chocolate is a vehicle for addressing and providing solutions to the ecological and social harm prevalent in the conventional chocolate industry, and the company will be offering chocolate samples alongside its educational display “A Supply Chain that Honors People and Planet” at its booth #2733 throughout the show, and their booths in North Hall Level 2 Hot Products and Hall C. Flavors include: Roasted Whole Hazelnuts; Crunchy Hazelnut Butter; Salted Whole Almonds; Salted Almond Butter; Salted Dark Chocolate; and Smooth Coconut Praline.

 

Dr. Bronner’s Promotes New Documentary Film Coextinction

Dr. Bronner’s is proud to announce its support for the new documentary film, Coextinction. A profound award-winning documentary on the ocean extinction crisis, Coextinction debuted at film festivals in 2021, and will be officially released globally in 2022. Dr. Bronner’s helped fund the production of the film and will partner with the filmmakers to promote educational events, screenings, and advocacy work connected to the film to inspire viewers to take direct action in stopping the impending extinction event on the horizon for orcas and wild salmon, and the consequential threats faced by Indigenous communities, and ultimately ourselves. In support of this partnership, Dr. Bronner’s has created a limited edition “Protect The Orcas” 4oz soap label for promotional and educational giveaways, to further raise awareness about the film and its call-to-action. The company will announce other promotions connected to its support of the film later in 2022. “Protect The Orcas” 4oz soap labels will be distributed at Dr. Bronner’s main booth #2733 while supplies last.
