JOYÀ's Limited-Edition Dark Chocolate is Enhanced with Lion's Mane
Laura McQuarrie — November 5, 2021 — Lifestyle
JOYÀ, a creator of ethically sourced, vegan and paleo bean-to-bar chocolate, launched a limited-edition dark chocolate variety that gives chocolate lovers a new way to appreciate directly traded organic cacao beans. The limited-edition Dark Chocolate with Lion's Mane bar features single-origin heirloom 70% cacao, coconut sugar and an extract from a beneficial medicinal mushroom.
The functional chocolate bar is packed with antioxidants and ingredients for energy, brain-boosting and immune support, and it shares just a single gram of sugar and zero mushroom flavor—instead, the bar is said to have decadent notes of coffee, pear, honey and caramel. The snack-sized bar promises to be a new staple at home or the office, especially when a pick-me-up is needed.
