Notes
Where do I find Vegan chocolate chips? I have three go-to vegan chocolate chips that I use. (Mainly because some of them are not available from time to time). This one has a delicious, milky chocolate flavor, this one is sweetened only with stevia, sugar-free and delicious, this one is allergy-friendly, affordable and reliable.
