Indulge in consciously better chocolate, with Prodigy Snacks co-founder Neena Vaswani

How can we start to tread more lightly as responsible guardians of our planet, of our bodies, of our businesses? 

If you are interested in how a chocolate business began making chocolate that’s better for us and better for the planet, listen to this week’s guest Neena Vaswani, co-founder of Prodigy snacks – the B-corp chocolate company that is both climate & more gut friendly.

Prodigy makes chocolates which are a well loved part of our lives.  It's an impact driven chocolate brand that exists to help people make healthier food choices every day.   

Inspired by the classics, Neena and her husband Sameer (the Willy Wonka half of the duo) wanted to reinvent our favourite chocolate bars and biscuits, only better.  Better because they use 100%  natural, plant based ingredients, high quality single origin cacao and a uniquely low percentage of natural sugar.  They  are also the UK’s first plastic negative chocolate bar, carbon neutral and proud to be B Corp.  Every bar sold funds the clean-up of the equivalent of 10 ocean bound plastic wrappers.  

But it's all well and good be a consciously impactful chocolate brand, but it's still got to taste delicious. Find out more about Neena does this on her mission to taking on the big boys in confectionary.

Listen to this episode as Neena points the way to treading more lightly on this planet, with others and with ourselves, and for giving us classic-style chocolate treats that we can enjoy in good conscience.
