My husband and I try to stay away from sugar (including substitutes like malitol). We get away with chocolate by purchasing products that have a high amount of cacao.

It really depends on the product. In the case of our sugar-free dark chocolate covered almonds, they are coated in a sugar-free semisweet chocolate, which contains maltitol. The ingredients in each of our products are listed on the lefthand side of the product pages, so you can check them out before placing an order! Hi, Miguel! It really depends on the product.

The price on our chocolate covered almonds has everything to do with quality. It's similar to other confections, such as chocolate bars: A Godiva chocolate bar may look like a Hershey bar, for example, but it certainly doesn't taste or cost the same. Thousands of companies make dark chocolate covered almonds, but the almonds that we currently offer are a premium variety that we've found to be some of the highest-quality (and tastiest) chocolate almonds around! We actually used to carry a variety of dark chocolate covered almonds that was similar in price and quality to those found in most supermarkets, but we switched to a premium brand when we found that our customers preferred the higher-quality product. These new dark chocolate covered almonds are one of our best sellers, so we think most customers would agree that they're worth the extra! :) Thanks so much for your question, Jim! We always love to hear feedback from customers and potential customers. If you'd like any other information about our dark chocolate covered almonds (or any other product, for that matter), please feel free to contact us directly at CustomerService@NutsOnline.com.

Kroger grocery has a candy tower located off the main front entry that has various nut and candy sweets of which dark chocolate covered almonds are among the selection. They are the hottest item on the stand and sell out and have to be restocked every two or three days. I am a big fan and purchase generally a pound every other visit. Their price is $3.47/lb. My question is why yours are so much more expensive? They look the same and, although I have never tasted your product, I assume they are most similar in that arena. I can understand markups but a 100% over an item that makes money for the grocery chain places your almonds in a category of their own. I love nuts and, in particular chocolate covered. If there is a specific reason to justify the difference in cost I am interested. Thank you and look forward to a reply,, Jim Just curious.
