Looking for dairy free chocolate? This list has over 100 options that are free from dairy, lactose, and milk. There's something for everyone on this list, including milk-style options, dark chocolate, white chocolate, and gifts. You'll even find a few options that are gluten free and vegan, too.
An important note: You must read every label every time you purchase a food item to confirm it is still dairy free. If you have a life-threatening milk allergy, please be sure to confirm with the company that the item you are purchasing is safe for you. Manufacturing processes change all the time, so be sure to confirm the product is still safe for you. You'll notice that I've included some options in this list that carry a "may contain milk" label. These items won't be suitable for all dietary needs. However, some people are able to consume these items so I've included them in the list. Every individual body is different, so I've tried to include a variety of options here. If you're avoiding milk, allergic, or lactose intolerant, I hope you'll find a new favorite on this list!

Dark Chocolate
Dark chocolate is a great option if you're dairy free because it shouldn't contain milk. However, due to some brands using shared processing equipment, it is often possible that dark chocolate contains trace amounts of milk. If you're dealing with a milk allergy, some safe brands I recommend are That's It, Pascha, No Whey Foods, Free2B, Amanda's Own, and Enjoy Life. Be sure to check with the companies directly before purchasing to ensure that their products are safe for you.
