I raided my chocolate stash today and discovered buried deep under the mountain of mass-produced chocolate this sleek envelope of heaven. I received a bar of Pump Street's 60% Ecuadorian milk chocolate studded with rye breadcrumbs and sea salt for...
I love discovering new chocolate brands (or new to me, at least), and thanks to a family member, I took delivery of some very pretty chocolate bonbons for my birthday. They were made in Diss, Norfolk, by Simon and Jessie,...
"Finally," I hear you cry. Yes, it finally happened. I met the grandfather of bean-to-bar chocolate making in the UK, Duffy Sheardown. This legend is part of the UK chocolate scene's royalty, and I've received plenty of messages urging me...
Whittard of Chelsea may be famous for its tea selection, but it also boasts a sizeable coffee and hot chocolate range too. Drums of hot chocolate powder in a wide variety of flavours are available throughout the year. Keep an eye out for limited edition seasonal flavours that are only available for short periods. Gift sets are a great choice at Christmas or for birthday celebrations.
I love hunting out good deals, especially so when they pertain to chocolate products. Today's review is courtesy of a "reduced to clear" offer on the 37g Cadbury Caramilk chocolate bar in my local Tesco. Launched a while ago, Cadbury...

Harry Specters, a social enterprise, not only creates beautiful and tasty collections of chocolates for all occasions throughout the year, but it also offers jobs and training opportunities for people with autism. This is feel-good, do-good chocolate in action.
It's no secret - I love Pump Street's chocolate, especially their bars that fuse the best of their chocolate craft with the best creations from their very own bakery. If you've not come across the brand before, check out their...
I am disappointed to learn that after 17 years of chocolate wizardry and culinary magic (and to-die-for chocolate brownies), Paul A. Young Fine Chocolates has shut its doors for the last time. In a message on Instagram, business owner Paul...
A trip over to the east coast is in order today, specifically to the quaint village of Beccles in Suffolk, where bean-to-bar chocolate specialists Harris & James is turning the concept of a salted caramel bar on its head. This...
Back in August 2020, I reviewed Lidl's Fin Carré Way To Go! Milk & Dark Chocolate Bars. The 100% traceable and Fairtrade chocolate bars followed a near-identical format to Tony's Chocolonely, right down to the weight, a strikingly similar bar...
