| I understand your concerns with Splenda, but have you ever read some of the additives in just normal food then looked up what they really mean? Chocolate should only be a treat and if you are not consuming large portions of this product it should be safe. When it comes to coffee and tea I use CSR Smart sugar this product is 50% sweetner and 50% sugar. |

| Is Splenda a safe product? I'm wary of artificial sweeteners in general but don't know what Splenda actually is. They can also give you "the runs". I used to be a chocoholic but now allow myself a couple of "special" chocs (Haigh in SA) about once every few weeks. They're so full of flavour that I don't crave the usual commercial chocs. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hi Steph I buy mine directly from a Darrell Lea store. It can not hurt to ask your supplier to order these bars in for you. Bonnie |

| Thanks for that info Bonnie. But can you buy Darrel Lea in the shops or only at their specialty shop. steph |
