____________________________

ACTIS LAW GROUP is lead counsel in the class action lawsuit against Chocmod Canada Inc. for having allegedly falsely and prominently marketed, advertised, promoted, packaged, labelled, sold, and/or represented the Truffettes de France as being truffles manufactured in France and imported from France, when they are actually produced in Canada.

It is misleading to state prominently on product packaging and on websites that the Truffettes de France are French truffles from France when they are produced in Canada. Just like the origin of a wine, the origin of a diamond, or the origin of olive oil, the origin of truffles is important.

Through the use of French branding, imagery, and representations, the Defendant has deliberately misled consumers into believing that the Truffettes de France Products are authentic French truffles made in France, thereby capitalizing on the reputation of French chocolate craftsmanship to increase sales.

Consumers are willing to pay more from French truffles from France because of their history and origin. They relied on the Defendant’s representation on the front label of the product packaging and paid a premium price than they would otherwise have.

The class consists of all Canadians who have purchased Truffettes de France Products, which include, at least the following varieties:

Original Cocoa Truffles,
Milk Chocolate Truffles,
Milk & Hazelnut Truffles,
Milk & Almond Truffles,
Salted Caramel Cocoa Truffles,
Coffee Crunch Truffles,
Cognac Champagne Truffles,
Organic Original Truffles,
Organic Caramel Cocoa Truffles,
Raspberry Flavoured Cocoa Truffles,
French Mallows.
