Is Hu chocolate healthy? Hu has one of the shortest, cleanest chocolate labels: cacao, unrefined coconut sugar, cocoa butter, no soy lecithin or artificial flavor. But coconut sugar is still sugar. We read the exact Hu labels, compare organic bars like Equal Exchange, and give a ten second chocolate label check (as of October 2026).
