[ENG|ESP] New challenge week 19, shopping challenge Purchase only COCOA/CHOCOLATE🍫 | by @dlizara

Taking advantage of the fact that her brother-in-law asked her for a birthday cake, @dlizara took us to buy cocoa and chocolate, so she could make that wonderful cake. With her we visited several stores specializing in confectionery, to be able to buy these products, however it was difficult to find them. In the end, she was able to buy cocoa powder, chocolate bars, chips and rain, with which she made the cake. She also gave us valuable tips to keep these products at home.

Chocolate Weakness, Buy Vegan (Cocoa-Chocolate). / Debilidad por el Chocolate, Compra Vegana (Cacao- Chocolate). | by @carisma77

In this vegan challenge, @carisma77 took us shopping in two places: A supermarket where there is a wide range of chocolate bars, where she bought a chocolate with a large percentage of cocoa, the closest thing to being a vegan chocolate. She also took us to a community market, where she was able to buy some great artisan cocoa powder. She also told us about her great love for chocolate, even though it is a food that she cannot eat often.

New shopping challenge// Buying only Cocoa/Chocolate (Eng/Esp) | by @daysiselena

Cocoa and chocolate are products that @daysiselena usually buys, so whenever she goes to buy her groceries, she includes it in her purchase. And on this occasion, she took us to a supermarket where she showed us a wide range of these products, both recognized and traditional brands, as well as newer ones, which are also of high quality. There she bought 100 grams of wonderful cocoa, since the previous week, she had already bought cocoa. She also explained to us in great detail how we can preserve cocoa at home.

Vegan Shopping Edition Vegan Chocolate Snacks In Supermarkets | by @nurfay

For this vegan challenge, @nurfay participated with a wonderful post, in which she takes us shopping, along with a friend of hers, to a huge supermarket, located in an important city in her province, Banda Aceh. This supermarket, called Suzuya, @nurfay was surprised by the huge variety of chocolates, both Indonesian and foreign. There she was very lucky to find 100% vegan chocolates, Van Holten brand, which have three flavors: Coconut Almont, Salted Caramel and Almont Berie. She bought the chocolate with the salted caramel variety, which she thought was delicious.

Shop for chocolate with an almost perfect composition and low prices | by @tomidiwirja

This is the first time that @tomidiwirja participates in a vegan challenge, and even when time was short to participate, he took us shopping at a supermarket, where he was checking the offer of chocolates and cocoas, reading carefully the composition of each one of them. In the end he got a great cocoa powder, Indonesian made, practically 100% cocoa, and at a great price; which is why he chose to buy it. In his post, he also told us that he has a cacao tree in his parents' house, and even showed us part of the crop of this plant.
