Your Message – Our Chocolates

Although I do love summertime, when the days start getting shorter and the evenings a little chillier, I know it’s time to

get excited! That’s because autumn is a season that’s just made for enjoying chocolate – with cooler days to sharpen the appetite and warm, cuddly flavours to snuggle up to.

So whatever you have planned this autumn I do hope we can help – from stylish gifts and dinner party nibbles to cosy nights in. And with Halloween creeping up on us, you might like to have a peep through your fingers at our ghoulishly gorgeous Halloween gifts starting on page 3 – perfect for scary nights in and terrifying parties for your little monsters.

So, whether it’s for a cosy evening by the fire or you’re celebrating something special, our autumn range is here to inspire you.

PS. Look out for our Halloween Children’s Competition online from 19th October.

less sugar MOre cocoa

so,usinglesssugarin our unique recipes means that the true flavours of chocolate are revealed, not masked behind excessive sweetness. And you can experience the difference for yourself throughout our new season range.

40% COCOA MILK CHOCOLATE – our unique recipe with a long lasting cocoa hit, but plenty of classic mellow creaminess.

50% COCOA MILK CHOCOLATE – takes it a step further with even less sugar and more cocoa but it is still creamy and extremely smooth.

74% COCOA DARK CHOCOLATE – full of pronounced cocoa flavours but with a subtle fruitiness to perk up the taste buds.

THE PuRIST – takes cocoa worship a step further with rare cocoa from estates around the world, cast into award-winning Purist tablets.

The Purist range also features the rare cocoa grown on our own Rabot Estate in St Lucia. But we don’t just grow cocoa there, we’re also helping to revitalise the island’s cocoa sector too through our ENGAGED ETHICS PROGRAMME – it guarantees a market for farmers’ entire cocoa crops at prices 30% above the market price, as well as technical help and other benefits. This has kick-started renewed interest in cocoa growing amongst our neighbouring farmers, leading to the creation of at least 100 new agricultural jobs already.
