Frequently Asked Questions

What does freeze drying actually do to the chocolate?

Freeze drying extracts most of the moisture from the caramel chocolate confectionery, leaving behind a lighter, slightly crumbly, crunchy texture that still retains the full original flavour. Think of it as chocolate — but with a satisfying snap and a melt-in-your-mouth finish.

Is it actually dinosaur poo?

Definitely not! The name is a playful nod to coprolites — fossilised animal droppings studied by palaeontologists to learn about prehistoric diets. This is 100% premium caramel chocolate confectionery, made and freeze dried in Tasmania, Australia.

What age is this suitable for?

This snack is suitable for children and adults alike. Please check the allergen information before purchasing — it contains milk and is made on equipment that processes peanut and tree nuts.

Is it a good gift?

Absolutely — it's one of those gifts that gets an instant reaction. The name, the packaging, and the taste all deliver. It works brilliantly as a stocking stuffer, party favour, Easter treat, or novelty gift for curious kids and science lovers of any age.
