With rising cocoa shortages and sustainability concerns, the chocolate industry faces growing challenges that demand innovative, eco-friendly alternatives, like the Fazer Taste the Future Raspberry Dream bar. This fresh, cocoa-free addition to Fazer’s Taste the Future concept is made with 10% malted rye and takes the form of a crispy treat layered with raspberry and vanilla fillings enrobed in a grain-based coating. This indulgent treat is plant-based, vegan and free from palm oil.

This product, like all other Taste the Future products, features a QR code that allows consumers to provide direct feedback on everything from taste and texture to packaging.

Building on previous grain-based prototypes, the Taste the Future Raspberry Dream bar marks the first full-scale production of cocoa-free innovation at Fazer’s chocolate factory in Vantaa, Finland.
