“The cultivation of cacao tells a powerful story.
Similarly to coffee, every cocoa bean has different expressions, based on its locality.
In the UK, it’s common to think that chocolate tastes the same - that generic word, ‘chocolate’. But gone are those days.
My vision is twofold -
to create small batch chocolates for the purest expression of perfection, utilising sustainable chocolate that really showcases the essence of that fruit
to work with other chocolate makers with the same ethos as us and promote their skill and craft
The flavour of our chocolates is representative of the soil, the air and the hands that nurtured them.
So, it’s easy for us to create stunning, hand painted chocolates in Britain, as we already have the foundations of excellence to play with.
I hope you enjoy what we’ve created.”
Love,

The beauty of nature
Grafting
Grafting is an ancient Roman horticultural technique that enables replication of a variety. You take part of a plant and graft it to the base of another tree.
The new age of chocolate-making
How history intended
the most natural way to sculpt the future
Pruning
Looking after the trees is incredibly important, so they can focus their energy into producing cacao fruit with the highest quality of flavour.
Single variety
The method of grafting creates a new tree that produces fruit, preserving the natural flavour of the fruit of its mother tree, creating single variety chocolate.
Locality
From the deep jungles of Nicaragua and Honduras to volcanic islands, such as Vanuatu and the Philippines, the flavour of these chocolates is representative of the soil, the air and the hands that nurtured them.
