Tiffin is a British chocolate indulgent, otherwise known as a fridge cake. It is a super easy, no-bake recipe that’ll give you your chocolate fix for the day. Before going vegan, I used to love grabbing a coffee along with a triangle of chocolate tiffin, but unfortunately the traditional sweet is filled with a whole load of butter.
Chocolate tiffin was simple to veganize, meanwhile creating a healthier alternative to saturated fat filled dairy.

We jazzed-up the regular traditional flavours of digestives and raisins, instead using something we were super excited to experiment with. The Raw Chocolate Company kindly sent us some delights to experiment with! We were eager to sprinkle Raw Chocolate Goji Berries into our mixture of traditional ginger nuts and dark chocolate, which gave a lovely flavour and texture to our tiffin. Raw Chocolate Company have an amazing selection of products that are delicious and nutritious.

Of course if you can’t get hold of certain ingredients in the recipe, The Hungry Herbivores like to keep our recipes open to change. Any of the used ingredients can be substituted for similar alternatives, such as ginger nuts to digestives or brown rice syrup to agave! If you’re unsure, give us a message or comment and we’ll help you out. We of course recommend our trialled recipe, as we know its delicious, but we understand everyone’s taste buds are unique and might want to change up the ingredients.
