I am flabbergasted by the amount of bad reviews here! First question: are they for real? Did they eat the same chocolate as mine? Do they have something against the company itself?
Very strange…please do not read those reviews , they are very wrong. How can you throw away a $10 chocolate bar in the garbage? How stupid is that? Even if you don’t like it, offer it to someone who might actually love it or put it in a chocolate recipe or be creative about it. There is definitely something off with all those negative reviews. As to the positive:,this chocolate is so smooth and sooo good , it will be hard to go back to other chocolate bars after but for the price , which is probably the only real negative here. So please, do yourself a favor and do your due diligence, try it and you will be rewarded with a great chocolate experience!

Ordered 3-flavors all exceeded my expectations for "real chocolate", not sugar bars. Favorite is Orange. Will be ordering again.

REAL CHOCOLATE!!!! NOT sugar laden junk!!
Ordered one of every flavor and gave myself time to work my way through them all. This chocolate is not meant to be chowed down on like a Hershey bar. It is meant to be placed in the mouth in small amounts, allowed to melt slowly and savored. That is how the full flavor of the chocolate comes through. If you just chew it up and swallow in 5 seconds, you likely won't like it because there is no processed refined sugar in it to offset the natural somewhat bitter property of pure cocoa bean. The dates used in these provides just enough sweetness without being THE primary part of the chocolate bar the way sugar is in almost all typical American chocolate candy. And no, you are NOT going to taste any date flavor. You aren't meant to. What you ARE going to get is a chocolate bar where you can actually taste the chocolate, something most people in the U.S. are not used to. I love this chocolate. People new to real chocolate might not. But when I get hit with a chocolate craving, two squares of this chocolate is all I need to satisfy it. (My personal favorite is the Orange Blossom bar. . .)
Also great is their packaging and shipping materials. Every bit of it is compostable. And the candy wrappers are recycled paper product, with the inner wrapper being made out of wood pulp fiber. It looks like cellophane, but it isn't. No plastic is used in the packaging. So you get to not only enjoy a healthy candy bar with no junk, you aren't putting any forever junk into a landfill either.

Customer Service
This review is about the quality of their customer service as I haven't tried the chocolate yet. Due to extenuating circumstances, I had to return a shipment that had just been received and was assisted with the utmost grace and kindness from the start. Theyhandled the issue promptly and efficiently and have won me as a future customer even though I've yet to even taste the product!

I’m in shock at the low rating here so…
I’m in shock at the low rating here so I had to add mine, Firstly : the chocolate is NOT bitter, it’s 72% chocolate, craft chocolate - not sugary candy chocolate. Fine chocolate like Belgium, Dutch, Swiss was a regular in my house…..now, after finding The Conscious Bar, it’s the only chocolate I eat, and I eat it daily. It’s beyond delicious. I call it my “emotional luxury”. For serious health reasons I had to give up processed foods and sugar. When you do that, even carrots begin to tastes sweet if they’re organic and good quality. So maybe the folks calling this “bitter” are big processed sugar eaters? Quality craft dark chocolate, made with pure organic ingredients isn’t bitter, it’s the way chocolate was meant to be. So that’s what I have to say about the taste.
Next let’s talk healthy: sweetened with organic dates. Not date sugar or syrup, the whole date, so you get all the nutrients and fiber dates provide making this tiny amount of fruit sugar a low glycemic type. The company does a great job and an honest one educating the consumer on all the health benefits their 72% chocolate bars provide. The list is long ranging from magnesium, polyphenols to sleep help. If you know quality chocolate, and need a healthy way to indulge guilt free, this is the answer to my prayer. I eat this chocolate every day. 2-3 squares from a bar. The clean, simple few ingredients: organic cacao, organic dates, organic cacao butter - that’s it! And Makes this rich, fudge type taste of dark, 72% chocolate dreamy! Other flavors of theirs are also clean ingredients check it out for yourself. I give everyone who comes to my house a taste because when I love something I want everyone to know about it. Since October 2025 when I found these bars, I’ve given about 100 taste tests to my holiday company guests, and family, and neighbors, and holiday gifts to service providers. Not 1 person said it was bitter, they are all fans of good dark chocolate, and not 1 disliked them in any way. Not 1. I’m sure someone will but I haven’t found them yet. 1 person declined to taste saying they only like milk chocolate.
Lastly, my famous cardiologist doctor approves of these chocolates, I gave him bars and his office. He’s very strict on ingredients for health and longevity so his thumbs up was clear meant-to-to sign for me.
Do NOT settle for “healthier” dark chocolate, go for this nutrient dense, healthy, rich and delicious chocolate. I don’t know how they keep the price so fair. I was at The Huntington Library & Museum last week where sugary dark chocolate bars in fancy labels had a price tag of $20. ea
In short: I couldn’t be a bigger or more loyal fan. The product is amazing, and the company integrity looks stellar and beyond reproach to me.

I really enjoyed trying The Conscious…
I really enjoyed trying The Conscious Bar. You can tell right away that it’s made with intention — the ingredient list is simple and clean, and that alone sets it apart from most chocolate on the market. It’s sweetened with dates instead of refined sugar, which gives it a more balanced, natural sweetness without feeling heavy or overly sugary.

Have been a customer of The Conscious…
Have been a customer of The Conscious Bar for 4 years now. They never disappoint. Chocolate is delicious and best part about it is they are made with minimal and real ingredients. So happy I found them because all other chocolates have terrible things and are loaded with sugar. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a healthy alternative.

I would consider myself a chocolate enthusiast. I have been across the planet trying chocolate from Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, and on and on. This bar is stunning! So delicious and only cacao and dates. Lovely, smooth, rich, and so worth the price. I will be a customer forever.
