Chocolate-Covered Wands | made by Ann & Anna This recipe is super easy and was inspired by Dumbledore’s Vegan Army’s version. It’s pretty self-explanatory, but check out the link to their recipe for detailed instructions! We used Ghiradelli’s semisweet chocolate chips and left out the shortening. A spoon was used to make the swirls while the chocolate was applied, which was great fun. I think I will take up chocolate swirling as a hobby.

About:

This event is taking place on National Chocolate Day and has three purposes:

1. Raise money for elephants who have been rescued from the circus/the entertainment industry ♥ Our goal is to raise at least $100 dollars to sponsor a rescued elephant for a year.

2. Raise awareness about animal abuse in the entertainment industry

3. Raise awareness of the fact that vegan chocolate is very easy to find and show people that vegan chocolate treats are easy to make :)

We will be selling vegan chocolate treats and the proceeds will be donated to a charity that takes care of elephants rescued from the entertainment industry. We’ll have a list of the elephants from the sanctuary and people can vote on which elephant they would like the Vegan Club to sponsor for a year. If we do well enough, maybe we can sponsor 2 elephants!

We will be handing out double-sided fact-sheets with information about animals in the entertainment industry and a list of vegan-friendly chocolate on the back, with our contact information and the url of this blog so people can re-create the cruelty-free chocolate delights. :)
