EXTRA THICK THE STORy OF OUR EGGS – in the early days of our business, we were advised by Easter egg experts to make the chocolate shells as thin as possible to economise on chocolate. We ignored that advice then and we still do!

Less sugar More CoCoa

Using less sUgar Using less sugar in 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 in our new range of Selectors – page 47.

MilK CHOCOlaTe seleCTOr – discover creamy 40% and macho 50% cocoa milk chocolates.

DarK CHOCOlaTe seleCTOr – experience the pronounced cocoa notes and subtle fruitiness of our 74% cocoa dark chocolate.

THe PUrisT – take cocoa worship a step further and discover the flavours of rare cocoa from estates around the world, cast into award-winning Purist tablets (page 23).

The Purist range also features the rare cocoa grown on our own Rabot Estate in St Lucia. But we’re not just growing our own cocoa there, we’re also helping to revitalise the island’s cocoa sector too. The 45th cocoa farmer has just joined our

engageD eTHiCs PrOgraMMe – it guarantees a market for their entire cocoa crop at prices 30% above the market price, as well as technical 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.
