New Christmas Wraps:

Making it even Easier, Quicker and more Fun!
We have speeded up the chocolate selection screen on our website - so if you have a slow internet connection, you should now find it a lot easier to create your own box of chocolates!

We have also changed our "Prepacked selections", so that you can choose the exact gift wrap you want to go with your chocolates.

Last Posting Dates for Christmas
The Royal Mail are recommending the following dates for Christmas 2007 for mail posted within the UK:    

Second Class: Monday 17th December First Class: Thursday 20th December

Keeping it Simple - Just select "Xmas" as the dispatch date for your chocolate gifts, and we will make sure they are sent in good time to arrive before Christmas.

Chocolate Trivia...
Cocoa powder is made by squeezing the cocoa butter out of the beans after they have been roasted and ground. This is done with a hydraulic press that can apply a pressure of more than 6,000 psi (car tyres contain about 25-30 psi of air pressure!). The result is a dry paste which is ground again and sifted to make a powder. Cocoa powder is used to make the familiar drink, and also for flavouring desserts and other food products.

Because cocoa can be quite bitter, it is sometimes treated with an alkaline solution (known as "Dutching") to reduce the amount of acid. This gives a mellower flavour and also makes it easier to dissolve when making a hot chocolate drink.
