With vegan enjoyment and fair trade! Because pink makes happy!
And: people like Manner.
Vegan before we even knew!
The Manner wafer, which in the meantime has even become a Hollywood icon in the hands of Arnold Schwarzenegger, is our most popular vegan product. Even when it first appeared in a Manner product catalogue in 1898, at that time under the rather matter-of-fact name "Neapolitaner Schnitte No. 239", the Manner Original Neapolitaner Schnitte was vegan.
... and it's still vegan today!
Two packs of Manner wafers are eaten every second. For over 100 years, the Manner wafers in its original recipe and its unchanged format has been a bite-sized and crispy tender treat.
It doesn't get any better than this? Yes, it does!
Manner has been using 100% certified sustainable cocoa for all brand products since 2020. The next important step in sustainability followed in 2021, when all Manner wafer and cake products received the well-known FAIRTRADE cocoa seal.
Products bearing the FAIRTRADE label are grown and traded according to the international standards of Fairtrade International.
The FAIRTRADE standards are the set of rules that smallholder cooperatives and companies must comply with along the entire value chain. They include social, ecological and economic minimum requirements to ensure sustainable development of producer organisations in the so-called developing countries.
FAIRTRADE commodity labels refer to a single fairly grown and traded commodity.
Only this specified ingredient in the blended product is FAIRTRADE certified - for example, the FAIRTRADE cocoa in the waffer.
"As a development policy instrument for poverty reduction, it is possible according to FAIRTRADE standards to produce cocoa in mass balance/indirect traceability (so-called "mass balance").
