All our Dark Chocolate products are sugar free and our milk chocolate products contain no added sugars. (Milk contains lactose, a naturally occurring sugar).

Throughout the Amber Lyn Chocolate store you’ll find products that are listed as “Sugar Free” and “No Sugar Added.” The difference is really in the dark and milk chocolate. Milk chocolate contains milk sugar – lactose, that occurs naturally in milk. Therefore, all of our milk chocolate products are listed as “no sugar added” and all of our dark chocolate products are listed as “sugar free,” as they contain no milk. That being said, we do not add sugars to any of our milk or dark chocolate products.

Our Belgian Chocolate is sweetened with Maltitol. Maltitol is a natural plant-based, reduced calorie sweetener that has 90% the sweetness of sugar. Maltitol is a member of a family of sweeteners known as sugar alcohols or polyols. Most of the maltitol on the market today is derived from corn. The maltitol used in Amber Lyn Chocolates is derived from wheat, but the wheat has been processed to allow this food to meet the Food and Drug Administration requirements for gluten-free foods.

The maltitol used in Amber Lyn Chocolates is derived from wheat, but the wheat has been processed to allow our chocolate to meet the Food and Drug Administration requirements for gluten-free foods. Third party laboratory analysis confirms that Amber Lyn chocolate contains less than 10ppm gluten which exceeds both the FDA and Gluten Free standards for gluten free.

There are numerous benefits that warrant the use of Maltitol in the manufacturing of confectionery products:

- It does not promote tooth decay

- It has only 2.1 cal/gram, compared with the 4 cal/gram in sugar

- It is useful in the manufacturing of sucrose-free chocolate

- It has been approved by the FDA as GRAS

- It has little or no effect on blood sugar levels

All Amber Lyn products are gluten-free and sugar-free / no sugar added.

No. Our chocolate contains no chemicals, preservatives, or artificial flavors. It’s made from premium Belgian Chocolate containing only the highest quality ingredients and inclusions.

Net carbohydrates are calculated by taking the total carbohydrates and subtracting fiber and non-sugar sweetener carbohydrates, or any other “non-impact” carbohydrate. Net carbohydrates are the carbohydrates that are actually absorbed by the body.

Our Dark Chocolate contains 55% cocoa and Milk Chocolate contains 35%.

People often ask, “Does your chocolate contain caffeine?” The short answer is yes, chocolate does contain small amounts of caffeine. Chocolate also contains another closely related substance called theobromine which can mimic the effects of caffeine. One ounce of dark chocolate averages about 12mg (less than 25% of the amount in a cup of coffee). Milk chocolate contains even less.

We have a number of chocolate products that do contains nuts. Most do not. We do not use peanuts in any of our products and our production facility is peanut-free.

Our chocolate does not currently carry a Kosher certification.

The natural plant-based sweetener we use, maltitol, can cause a mild laxative or fullness effect in some individuals with digestive sensitivities. The effect is short lived, completely harmless and not unlike what often happens when you eat a handful of fresh cherries. When eaten in moderation, most people experience no negative effects.

Most other sugar free (and traditionally sweetened) chocolate products are made from inexpensive domestic chocolate. These other “value” brands often use artificial sweeteners such as sucralose (Splenda) to sweeten their products. Amber Lyn Chocolate is not only sugar free (or no sugar added), it is premium chocolate of the very highest quality, imported from Belgium where our beans are roasted, ground and conched by world renowned Belgian chocolatiers. Our chocolate contains no artificial sweeteners, no substitute oils and no preservatives – nothing artificial. It is the world’s finest sugar free chocolate.

The shelf life of Amber Lyn Chocolates is typically 9 to 12 months and even longer if refrigerated and stored in a dry place.

Unfortunately we are no longer able to source the raw ingredients for White Chocolate. We apologize for disappointing our loyal white chocolate customers. We sincerely wish this was not the case.
