# 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:** 14/100
- **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 product page displays a gluten-free claim, and the available ingredient statement and related evidence contain nothing that contradicts it; under FDA's rule (21 CFR 101.91) such a claim is voluntary and requires no third-party certification, though the product must meet the under-20-ppm definition. No independent product-level testing or certification was retrieved in the sources checked, including the GFCO certified products page, and the brand articles reviewed do not address gluten-free status. This reflects a gap in public evidence, not a finding about the label, and for medical use rely on the current package and your clinician's guidance.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-02
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: Only GFCO's registry was checked; no other named gluten-free certifier registries (e.g. NSF, SCS, CSA, Coeliac UK, AOECS) were searched for Dandelion Chocolate, which are the realistic public paths to a certifier match for this claim.

### Allergen-Free

- **Status:** Preliminary — a person is still reviewing this (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Claims free of: soy free”
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: The product page publicly states the claim "soy free," and US law recognizes soybeans as a major allergen, though "allergen-free" has no single regulatory definition and must be scoped to specific allergens. The brand's public help articles describe single-origin sourcing and a two-ingredient chocolate but do not address allergens or this specific product, and batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. This reflects only the publicly available evidence and is not a statement that the product is third-party certified.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-26
- **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:** 39/100
- **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, and a certifier catalog lists at least one Dandelion product as certified, though this specific product is not named there. Public evidence found is brand-level and company-level, and batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. In the US, vegan is not defined by food regulation and can be self-declared without required independent testing.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-02
- **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.
