Aurora – Our partners

At VGAN we are proud to collaborate with Norwegian singer, songwriter and record producer AURORA. She has developed her very own VGAN chocolate, the amazing hazelnut, guarana and ginger flavor.

I wanted to collaborate with VGAN because, first of all, this chocolate is amazing. And second of all, I love chocolate. And then last , but not least, we should always try to figure out how to live in harmony with the living things around us. The animals have suffered too much, for too long. And the planet too. VGAN chocolate is a little step, towards a brighter, kinder future.
