The Coffee Chocolate Collection
It is believed coffee was first blended in the fifteenth century. My, how things have evolved wonderfully since then. So much so as to enable us to give you the perfect, and perhaps best autumn chocolate flavours in a box.
Enjoy our chocolate collection in a fabulous gift box featuring some of our finest coffee chocolates. With the coffee aromas tantalising your taste buds, sit back and indulge on our velvety, luxuriously creamy macchiato. There is a deep warming aura in a cup of coffee but we have transferred this into the finest chocolate form for your ultimate satisfaction.
Its not only the squirrels that enjoy nuts! For many of us, nuts and chocolate are a top ‘combo’.
Milk Or Dark Chocolate Brazil Nuts
Presented, each in their own right, and a rather sharp looking cube box to boot, Brazil Nuts are synonymous with the nut and chocolate concept. Featuring quality nuts and fine chocolate coats these are a traditional favourite much suite for a night in during the autumn time. For many people they are the best autumn chocolate flavour going.
Sit back, feet up and indulge yourself with our delicious marzipan, made with a high almond content for a superior taste. Coated in smooth, velvety milk chocolate, the sweetness of which is offset by the slightly bitter taste of a whole roasted walnut….utterly sublime. The walnut is a cracking nut, (no pun intended) paired with chocolate, and rivals the Brazil's and Hazelnuts as a firm favourite.
