At BELOVD, real food is simple and delicious. Here's everything you might want to know about what we craft, why we craft and how we're redefining chocolate, one ingredient at a time.
What does Return to Real mean?
Return to Real is more than a tagline. For BELOVD, it means returning to food as it was meant to be: whole, unrefined, and nourishing. And, crafting food with real ingredients. No fillers, no additives, no manufactured or ultra refined products.
What is COCOALINA?
Cocoalina is BELOVD's signature blend of cocoa + coconut sugar + spirulina. Every bar begins with regeneratively grown cocoa beans, organic and unrefined coconut sugar. The result? Chocolate the way nature intended. Rich and real.
What is spirulina?
Spirulina is a nutrient-dense superfood that thrives through sunlight and water. Gram for gram, it’s one of the most powerful sources of antioxidants, plant-based protein, vitamins, and minerals on Earth. We chose spirulina because it fuels your body with what it needs. It’s been shown to support immune health, detoxify heavy metals, balance cholesterol and blood pressure, and nourish your body at the cellular level. Not all greens are created equal, and spirulina stands at the top. That’s why it’s a cornerstone of Cocoalina®.
What is a superfood?
A superfood is more than a buzzword—it’s food that offers extraordinary levels of nutrients per calorie. In their natural form, superfoods fuel, protect, and restore the body. Think: cacao, hemp seeds, quinoa, coconut sugar. We think real superfoods don’t need marketing gimmicks. They speak for themselves through how they make you feel.
Why coconut sugar?
Because real sweetness doesn’t need to come at the cost of your health.We sweeten our chocolate with organic unrefined coconut sugar because it: has a low-glycemic value; helps to support balanced blood sugar; naturally contains inulin (a prebiotic fiber linked to better gut health); tastes subtly caramel-like without overwhelming the chocolate's natural flavor; and, coconut trees are powerful soil builders making them better for the planet. Better for you. Better for the earth. Exactly how real food should be.
Is BELOVD chocolate allergy-friendly?
BELOVD is crafted to be safe, welcoming, and real. And, as of September 2025, we craft our chocolate in a Top 9 Allergen Free facility! Our chocolate is always crafted with: no peanuts, no tree nuts, no dairy, no soy/sesame/sunflower, no gluten, no eggs. We also skip fillers, gums, lecithins, emulsifiers, and anything ultra refined. Because real food should feel safe. And indulgence should feel effortless.
Is it vegan?
Yes. Every bar of BELOVD chocolate is 100% vegan. No dairy. No animal products. No compromises. Just real, plant-based ingredients the way nature intended.
How should I store BELOVD chocolate?
Real food deserves a little real care. Store BELOVD chocolate in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ideal temperature: 65–70°F (cool room temperature). Because we don’t add preservatives or stabilizers, our chocolate may develop a natural "bloom" (a light, powdery look) if exposed to heat swings, but it’s still perfectly safe to eat. BELOVD is real—that’s what makes it beautiful.
