Mars has expanded its vegan Galaxy chocolate bar range with the launch of a new vegan fruit and nut bar, available now in the UK. The Galaxy vegan fruit and nut bar combines dairy-free milk chocolate with hazelnut paste, raisins and roasted hazelnuts. Galaxy introduced its first dairy-free line in 2019. The range includes popular flavours such as Smooth Orange and Caramel, as well as a vegan version of Galaxy’s classic Crumbled Cookie. In addition to a 100g bar, Galaxy Vegan Fruit and Nut is also available in a smaller 40g snack-sized format, designed to provide a convenient on-the-go treat for consumers. The new bar is available now at Morrisons stores across the UK.
