We are beyond delighted to have received a Golden Fork Heritage Award for our Dark Chocolate with Black Cherry at this year’s Great Taste Awards, held at the beautiful Battersea Arts Centre in London last week.
Our Black Cherry bar is smoky, fruity, dark and decadent: Tart and fragrant black cherries combine with 70% Virungan dark chocolate made from rare Amelonado cocoa beans grown regeneratively in the forests of Virunga National Park, DRC. It's a classic and luxurious combination, redolent of forest fruits.
It means such a lot to prove that our chocolate is not just pretty, but also very delicious and of the very best quality. It’s wonderful to be rewarded for the thought and energy we put into our recipes, and our sourcing of organic, ethical and best quality ingredients.
