Best Practices

• •Prioritize "Safety First" Language: Always lead with or prominently feature the nut-free (and other relevant allergen-free) aspect. Use reassuring words like "dedicated facility," "guaranteed nut-free," "worry-free," "safe for your family."
• •Speak with Empathy and Understanding: Acknowledge the challenges of living with food allergies. Use language that shows you "get it," e.g., "We understand the importance of trust," "So no one feels left out."
• •Balance Safety with Joy and Indulgence: While safety is key, don't let the tone become overly clinical. Emphasize the deliciousness, the gourmet quality, and the happiness the chocolates bring. Use words like "delicious," "gourmet," "indulge," "celebrate," "joy."
• •Tell the Story (Subtly or Overtly): Weave in elements of the founding story—a mother's love, the desire for inclusivity for her child. This reinforces authenticity and the "why" behind the brand.
• •Create a Persona Guide: Develop a clear document outlining the brand's voice (caring, trustworthy, joyful, passionate) and values. Provide dos and don'ts for language and tone, ensuring anyone writing copy (social media, web, email) is consistent. Regularly review and update this guide.
