Last year, it ramped up the challenge to M&M’s with its own take on dark chocolate-covered peanuts to expand its range of healthier alternatives to a number of classic chocolate treats such as Maltesers and Buttons. Ben Arbib, who founded Nurture Brands in 2019, said Doisy & Dam was “a real disrupter” bringing “excitement and new formats” from the dairy milk category into plant-based chocolate.
