BUTTERM!LK: Our favourite Veganuary plant-based treats made with purpose
Butterm!lk, a family-run confectionery business led by Tracy and David, has become a household name for plant-based indulgence. Born in the heart of Padstow, Cornwall, Butterm!lk’s story began with a traditional fudge shop, and over time, it has evolved into a trailblazer in the world of vegan chocolate. Committed to offering delectable, award-winning treats without compromising on taste, quality, or ethics, Butterm!lk is redefining confectionery for the modern age.
