The folks behind Glasgow's healthy chocolate factory have created a new bar that may be the healthiest chocolate ever.
Rebel Chocolate, in collaboration with Tempo Tea Bar, have created the antioxidant packed and vividly green Matcha Japanese Green Tea chocolate.
With three servings of Mmtcha per bar, 20% protein and 40% less sugar, they reckon chocolate doesn't get much healthier than that - and is as tasty as ever!
As with all Rebel Chocolate’s products, it is also free from lactose, gluten and palm oil.
Neil Robson, co-owner of Rebel Chocolate said: "We are all about the marriage of great taste and innovation so when Liam and his team from Tempo Tea Bar came to us with the idea of incorporating Matcha into our white chocolate I was intrigued.
"I knew green tea was a good source of antioxidants, but when I discovered Matcha contains more than 10 times the amount of antioxidants compared to standard Green Tea, this really got my attention."
With a background in biological sciences, Neil already had a good grasp of the importance of eating plenty of different food types that are naturally high in antioxidants. The emerging idea would see high quality matcha added to a “tweaked” version of Rebel Chocolate's high protein and delicious white chocolate.
So if you're looking for a healthier alternative - or maybe love the taste of matcha - then you can grab a bar from Tempo Tea Bar in Glasgow or pick one up from Rebel Chocolate directly from their website here at a special price of £2.95.
