This post is brought to you by the fine people at Pascha Chocolate and their vegan, gluten-free and food-allergy friendly Make Me Smile Chocolate Fruit Spread – available in stores and online now! Pascha Chocolate is a sponsor of Celiac and the Beast.
Have you tried the NEW Make Me Smile chocolate fruit spread from Pascha Chocolate? I had a chance to sample this way back during product testing. I was so excited for it and just had to wait for it to hit the market. In fact, I was so excited about it, I featured it in one of my columns for Gluten Free & More magazine!
The chocolately ooey-gooey spreadable delectable flavor of Make Me Smile spread comes from concentrated fruit syrup and unsweetened chocolate. It is Pascha’s answer to Nutella – but without dairy, and without nuts – and all of that annoying cross-contamination or “may contain” statements or “made in a facility” with warnings. Pascha Make Me Smile Chocolate Fruit Spread is produced in a facility free of the top 8 allergens. If you have food allergies, this might be your answer to some of the other spreads on the market! The Make Me Smile spread from Pascha Chocolate is CSA certified gluten-free, certified organic, fair trade chocolate, vegan, kosher, Paleo and Non-GMO Project Verified.
And it’s something you won’t feel guilty for including in every lunch for your little ones as they go back to school. It’s a lower fat spread with a rich chocolate taste fueled by fruit. And there are only 90 calories per 2 tablespoons!

Love to have ALL these products. Bring us more Pascha Chocolate products to Arizona PLEASE. Love to try them all. 🙂
I’m super excited about trying this safe snack! Nothing beats fresh fruit dipped in creamy chocolate, especially strawberries.
These look fabulous. Thank goodness for on-line purchasing as Southeast Georgia rarely carries anything new or exciting. Thanks for letting us know about this line of products.
I would love to win this for my family and especially my granddaughter who lives with us! I would use it for snacks for her on crackers and marshmallows. I would love to surprise her with a new smoothie to share with her grandma. We love sharing smoothies!
How won’t I eat it?! Swirled into oatmeal, smeared on pancakes, rolled into crepes, with pretzel dippers, and with a big spoon!
I work in a school so this would be perfect for me at snack time. But I also tell my celiac kids to see me if they need snacks! Win win. I’m sad they don’t market it in Massachusetts though
This sounds amazing! Can’t wait to try it.
Oh. My. Goodness!! Where has this been all of my life? I need this in NC, like now!! I hope that I can get my hands on some of this VERY SOON! 😍
I bought my first Pascha chocolate bar the other day and it’s yummy. Can’t wait to try this spread. I would dip gluten free pretzels and fruit into it.
I would love to win this giveaway! This chocolate spread would taste delicious with some strawberries or apple slices!
I would just eat it straight out of the container!
I would use it on toast, apples and pretzels the most.
I would did pretzels in it, spread on rice cakes, spread on a tortilla, or spread on waffles!
I’d probably spread it on GF toast & eat right out of the package. 🙂
I would put it on waffles or use it as a fruit dip!
I would totally put this on top of waffles or pancakes
Thank you for sharing the news about this yummy spread. I know my girls and I will love to dip into these yummy flavors.
I’m not sure how I haven’t tried this yet, looks so good!
Sounds delicious on top of gluten free pancakes, strawberries….delicious!
A chocolate spread for anything?! Bananas, those coconut rolls from Costco, waffles, toast, a spoon…the options are limitless. Perfection! I haven’t had anything like this in years since my dairy allergy so kindly revealed itself.
Chocolate — goes with everything from appetizers to entree’s! This sounds so delicious and the thought of not having to worry about gluten OR lactose — wow — I’m going to be looking for it in our grocery stores … but would love to win a head-start sampler.
I would enjoy it on toast or bagels or I might just go get a box of crackers and put it on the crackers and eat it for a snack while watching football
I had never heard of Pascha before but I need to get my hands on some of their white chocolate chips!
This sounds so yummy. Thanks for sharing!
I love love love a peanut butter, nutella, and banana sandwich, lightly grilled (as in grilled cheese), but it’d be nice to make it without the guilt (or at least with less!)!
I would eat it straight out of the jar with a spoon. That’s allowed, right?
I CANNOT wait to try this! Been dying for a dairy-free nutella spread in our house for awhile now … YUMMMMERS!

I would spread some on gf bread or gf shortbread cookies…and most likely, I would end up eating most of it right out of the jar with a spoon lol. This looks delicious!
Not sure yet how I’d use it, but it sounds like the perfect thing for my picky little eater.
Since I can’t tolerate many treats due to allergies, Celiac disease and other autoimmune diseases, I am so excited to try your spread! Spread a little joy thus way please!!!
I would keep a container of it on my desk so I could have some to snack on during the day, with fruit or all by itself!
This would be so good spread on cinnamon raisin toast!
I would put it on some Van’s gluten-free waffles and also on some Dandies vegan marshmallows.
I’d eat it on pretzels and muffins 🙂
I would love to try this with my homemade vanilla ice cream. After it has been churned and almost ready for the freezer, swirl this in! Or, pour it over the top when serving, and both if you dare!
We would mix with nut butter as a yummy dip for gf pretzels in the kiddo’s lunchbox.
Pancakes of course. Oh yea……
I’ve also wanted to try this but it’s not sold by me!
I need to find this and try it. I’ve heard such great things about their products but haven’t found them anywhere. Sounds delicious!
So happy to find out about this. Can’t wait to try this with fruit!
What a SUPER idea! Our boys are allergic to peanuts, so not chocolate varieties for them. They love Nutella, but Eileen is allergic to tree-nuts. This would be something the whole family could enjoy!
This sounds tasty! Can’t wait to try it!
