FAQ about Choc Peanut Butter Cups

  • Absolutely! While dark chocolate gives a rich flavour, feel free to swap in dairy-free milk chocolate or even white chocolate for a sweeter twist.

  • Yes! All ingredients listed are naturally gluten-free, but always check labels to ensure there’s no cross-contamination if you're coeliac or sensitive.

  • Store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week — if they last that long! Just let them sit for a few minutes before enjoying.

  • The Botanika Basics powder adds a creamy, balanced flavour and texture. If substituting, the results may vary — but you can try more peanut butter with less water.

  • For a nut-free alternative, try using sunflower seed butter and a nut-free powdered option, though flavour and consistency may differ.

  • Definitely! These are a great treat for little ones.
