Cocoa product company Food Thoughts has acquired plant-based chocolate brand Doisy & Dam from Nurture Brands for an undisclosed sum.


Doisy & Dam’s focus is on sustainable and ethical plant-based chocolates, with a range of products in sharing and impulse formats, including D&Ds, Good Eggs and Clusters. Founded by Richard Wilkinson and Ed Smith in 2012, it was acquired by Nurture Brands in 2022.


The brand’s portfolio is now available across a range of retailers in the UK including Boots, Ocado, Holland & Barratt, Planet Organic and a range of premium wholesalers and independent stores, as well as on Amazon.


Food Thoughts offers fair trade cocoa products ranging from organic cacao powder to chocolate coated cacao nibs. Its range is available in Waitrose, Sainsbury’s and Ocado as well as premium wholesalers and independents.


Mark Gould, managing director at Food Thoughts, said: “Doisy & Dam is synonymous with great tasting ethical plant-based chocolate, and is a brand with a loyal following across the UK and EU”.


“Adding Doisy & Dam to our ethical cocoa powder brand, Food Thoughts, provides us with an exciting plant-based chocolate proposition across snacking and home baking. As a certified B-Corp brand that avoids using palm oil and commits 1% of its revenue to Borneo Orangutan Society, the brand also sits perfectly with our ethical values, and we will continue to make this a priority.”
