American chocolate brand Wild West Chocolate has launched its Goldstruck range nationwide, exclusively through Sprouts Farmers Market.
The new collection features chocolate bars divided into seven gold-ingot-shaped pieces, inspired by the American Gold Rush. Each bar contains a creamy nut-butter centre and comes in a recyclable gold wrapper.
The range includes four varieties: peanut butter and hazelnut butter in 70% dark chocolate, plus almond butter and cashew butter in oat-milk chocolate. According to the company, the products are organic, vegan, Fair Trade Certified and contain no added sugar or sugar substitutes. The recommended retail price is $6.99.
