Whittaker’s Goes Dark on Fruit & Nut – in a good way!
Dark Chocolate Lovers are in for a treat with Whittaker’s latest creation, 72% Dark Ghana Fruit & Nut, a classic new addition to Whittaker’s 250g permanent range, which is bound to become a pantry staple.
Holly Whittaker, Whittaker’s Marketing Manager, says this responds directly to requests from Whittaker’s Chocolate Lovers.
“A dark version of Whittaker’s Creamy Milk Fruit & Nut block has been one of Whittaker’s most widely requested flavour combinations, and we hope they’re going to love what we’ve come up with as much as we do,” says Holly.
Made with only the finest batch roasted Ghanaian cocoa beans, Whittaker’s 72% Dark Ghana Fruit & Nut is bursting with other high quality ingredients including juicy Californian raisins and fresh roasted almonds.
“Just like our original Creamy Milk Fruit & Nut block, Whittaker’s 72% Dark Ghana Fruit & Nut is the fruitiest and nuttiest block of its kind – it’s so packed that it’s almost impossible to break straight.
“To help prove this theory, we’re encouraging Whittaker’s Chocolate Lovers to snap off pieces of their block, photograph the end result, and share it with us and other Whittaker’s Chocolate Lovers on social media,” says Holly.
Available in 250g blocks, Whittaker’s 72% Dark Ghana Fruit & Nut will be appearing on supermarkets shelves and retail outlets nationwide from Monday 11 November.

Lisa was born in Auckland at the start of the 1970s, living in a small campsite community on the North Shore called Browns Bay. She spent a significant part of her life with her grandparents, often hanging out at the beaches. Lisa has many happy memories from those days at Browns Bay beach, where fish were plentiful on the point and the ocean was rich in seaweed. She played in the water for hours, going home totally “sun-kissed.” “An adorable time to grow up,” Lisa tells me.
Lisa enjoyed many sports; she was a keen tennis player and netballer, playing in the top teams for her age right up until the family moved to Wellington. Lisa was fifteen years old, which unfortunately marked the end of her sporting career. Local teams were well established in Wellington, and her attention was drawn elsewhere.
