Nut-free chocolates or biscuits - luxury gift

8 replies

Hi all,

Completely new to this!

I need recommendations for a GREAT Christmas collection of luxurious chocolates or biscuits please!

Absolutely to be free of nuts.

Around the £40-£75 mark would be fab 🙏

Do you mean free of "may contain" warnings too? Salcombe dairy would fit the bill for luxury chocolate gifts. I am not sure about very luxurious biscuits. The best we have managed is the posher style that McVities do at Christmas in supermarkets, called Victoria. Or M&S have a big shortbread tin with a stag on it that I've seen is safe this year.

I’ve just discovered Salcombe dairy. Their chocolate seems to be genuinely nut and soya free (no warnings of ‘traces’).

So far I’ve only tried the bars but it’s good chocolate. It costs £5 a bar and I’m not sure it totally lives up to the price but it’s worth it for properly nut free chocolate. I have a nut allergy and am finding increasingly that I have mild reactions when eating chocolate that ‘may contain traces’

I like these. There's no nuts in them but they are 'may contain'.

Nomo are good, entirely nut free, they have sharing boxes and caramel chocolates. Plamil also good but not very fancy. Nutfreeliving on Facebook has lots of photos of suitable products, all totally nut free (no traces).

Wow! Thankyou so much everyone 😊 They do have to be completely nut-free so I will look into the suggestions.

I’d take care with Nomo products. I can’t eat them due to Shea being from Shea nuts. Apparently it’s refined enough not to be a problem but I’m intolerant to it, and to inulin and lethicins which can come from pulses (if your friend is allergic to peanuts they may not tolerate soya and other legumes)

Wow, @IINeedNewShoes, my son is allergic to nuts and peas and Nomo has always been his "go to" chocolate, never had a problem with them but it just goes to show how awful and unpredictable allergies can be!
