 Belated Happy New Year wishes to all our customers!  We are both delighted despite the awful weather to have made it through our first of many Christmas's in Hunstanton and would like to especially thank Carl at the Best Western Le Strange Arms Hotel, Vicky & Paul Searle at Heacham Manor, Sandra and Keith at Chives and the Broadland & Coastal Cruising Club for placing their Christmas Orders with us, corporate orders are very important to us and the support of local businesses in the area is in our opinion extremely valuable.

Moving forward, Cupid is in the air.... Valentines is next on the Chocolate Calender of events and we already have our stock on the shelves for all those 'romantics' out there!  Infact, this time round we have made sure their is a gift for everyone in February who comes into our Hunstanton Shop and spends £10.00 or more, on production of the voucher at the bottom of the page - we will give you the choice of a free Bar of Milk, White or Dark Chocolate (100g too!)  our way of a little thank you to our customers. 

  We have some new 'unique' products too for those of you that are interested in different flavours.  Last year, Angie and I met with a very small family company based in Italy that have found a way of delighting their Italian market with introducing their own regional Dessert Wines and Cheese to their Chocolate.  It is amazing too and right now we are the only Chocolate Shop in the UK to be selling this really special product.  Their other product that excites us is a Box of Chocolates created for pleasure at different times of the day, or as the Italians would say ' A new way to draw near to the Food of the Gods, an evolution in the Chocolate world of Tasting'

·  9 Tesori Al Formaggio Di Fossa E Vino Di Albana Passito - Translates to 9 Chocolate Treasures filled with aged cheese and Albana Dessert Wine.  This little family in Italy have found a way of combining goat and sheep cheese aged in Caves by Pellegrini and Albana Dessert Wine with cocoa, to create a Ganache before finally coating in extra fine Dark Chocolate.

· IL Cioccolato Del Giorno - Translates to The Chocolate of The Day.  Brothers Gardini have created 3 original blends with specific characteristics to be tasted in particular moments of the day: for the morning - energetic; for the afternoon - reinforced; for the evening - sensual.

All that aside, we believe Chocolate should be enjoyed by everyone and as with most things in life - everyone has different tastes and expectations which is why we will continue to introduce all sorts of different products in milk, white and dark chocolate including No Added Sugar products to suits our diabetic customers and dairy free and gluten free products to suit those with dietary restrictions.  Come and tell us what you like, if we don't have something that you fancy, just ask!  I'm sure we can find something to suit those cravings!
