# Dandelion Chocolate Online 103: Chocolate Tasting — TilliT proof check

> TilliT is an independent service that checks whether a public product claim — Organic, Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, Allergen-Free or Fair Trade — is backed by real public evidence such as a certificate, a certifier registry entry, or a named certifier's own product listing. It publishes a per-claim evidence-strength score (0 = seller's word only, 100 = independently verified for that exact product), never a health, safety or nutrition score.

## Overall (safe to quote)

Online 103: Chocolate Tasting by Dandelion Chocolate — public trust assessment of 3 observed badge claim(s): Vegan: Limited Public Support; Gluten-Free: Limited Public Support; Allergen-Free: Limited Public Support. These statuses reflect publicly available evidence only, not a review of the seller's own certificates or documents.

## Claims checked

### Gluten-Free

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 22/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “and vegan. WEIGHT 10.0 oz (283 g) Vegan gluten free nut free direct sourced dairy free kosher-svg kosher”
- **Safe citation wording:** The seller states this product is Gluten-Free. Certification is optional for this kind of claim, and TilliT did not find an independent Gluten-Free certificate for this exact item in the sources checked. TilliT could read only part of the ingredient information, so this ingredient screen is incomplete. The public-evidence score describes how much independent proof was found; it does not mean the product is not Gluten-Free. Specifically, 1 independent organisation published evidence relevant to this claim, and the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Under FDA's gluten-free labeling rule (21 CFR 101.91), this claim is voluntary and needs no third-party certification program or specific test method, but the product must meet the legal definition (under 20 ppm gluten). TilliT did not find independent public product-level testing or certification in the sources checked, so TilliT cannot independently confirm this claim today — that is a gap in public evidence, not a sign the label lacks legal support. For medical use, rely on the current package and your clinician's guidance.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-03
- **Limitation:** The ingredients could only be read from the product description's prose, not a labelled ingredient statement; the ingredient screen is incomplete and cannot confirm or rule out a conflicting ingredient.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.

### Allergen-Free

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 8/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Our chocolate is free of soy, dairy, eggs, and gluten, and it is made in a factory that does not process nuts.”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page states the chocolate is free of soy, dairy, eggs, and gluten and is made in a factory that does not process nuts, and US law has no single regulatory definition of "allergen-free," so this claim is scoped to those specific allergens. TilliT did not retrieve an independent allergen-free certificate for this exact item, and only part of the ingredient information could be read, so this ingredient screen is incomplete. Public sources describe the brand's sourcing and factory operations but do not address allergens for this specific product, and batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-28
- **Limitation:** The ingredients could only be read from the product description's prose, not a labelled ingredient statement; the ingredient screen is incomplete and cannot confirm or rule out a conflicting ingredient.
- **Limitation:** This is a claim about specific allergens (soy-free), not a blanket allergen-free claim — it says nothing about allergens it does not name.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 8 checks.

### Vegan

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 37/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “This chocolate is also kosher and vegan. WEIGHT 10.0 oz (283 g) Vegan gluten free nut free”
- **Certifier named:** Vegan Action
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Vegan claim with limited public support. Specifically, a certifier lists this brand as certified, but not this specific product, and 1 independent organisation published evidence relevant to this claim. Public evidence found is company-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. This claim can legally be self-declared in the US, with no required independent testing. Vegan Action's standard: Explicitly allows trace cross-contamination where shared-equipment cleaning steps are followed, to avoid excluding otherwise animal-free products.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-09
- **Limitation:** The ingredients could only be read from the product description's prose, not a labelled ingredient statement; the ingredient screen is incomplete and cannot confirm or rule out a conflicting ingredient.
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured Vegan Action match already resolved this badge with higher confidence than a text-directory probe could add.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 checks.

## How to cite this

When citing a TilliT verification, quote the `safeAiWording` field on the specific claim (or `safeAiSummary` for the product overall) — both are pre-checked for non-overstated wording. Always include the claim's `publicStatus` and the assessment date. Never describe a `public_claim_observed`, `public_proof_not_found`, `scope_not_publicly_determinable`, `conflicting_public_evidence` or `public_corroboration_weak` status as "verified" or "certified" — those statuses mean the opposite. Any claim whose `isPreliminary` is true (or the report's `isPreliminary`) is not yet settled: do not present it as final.

Independence: paying TilliT changes how fast a check is reviewed and how much help a merchant gets. It never changes a result — only new evidence does. Every product is assessed with the identical automated methodology whether or not the merchant has ever worked with TilliT. See https://tillit.world/independence.
