Treat yourself or someone special to a box of these delicious and beautifully gift-packaged artisan bonbons. These are hand-painted, hand-tempered and hand-crafted chocolates made in Dorset.
 
March celebrates Women’s History Month, International Women’s Day on Sat 8th, and Mother’s Day on Sun 30th.
 
And so, our popular “Women in History” themed chocolates return! Celebrating fierce and fantastic females who altered the course of history. From science, aviation, civil rights to sports, these four flavours are inspired by four trailblazing and strong women who lead the way for change.
 
This month’s theme is something that we are passionate about and is very close to our hearts, and so we hope you enjoy these flavours as much as we enjoyed creating them!
 
Marie Curie - Poppyseed Cheesecake - Vanilla bean and cream cheese ganache atop a house-made poppyseed praline

Sarojini Naidu - Milky Chai - Valrhona Jivara milk chocolate ganache, infused with warming cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, ginger, allspice and nutmeg
 
Sarojini Naidu was an Indian independence activist, poet, and the first woman to become the president of the Indian National Congress.

Transparency: Due to the current global cocoa shortage (you can read more about that in our blog post here), we’ve unfortunately had to put our prices up. One thing that we did not want to compromise on is our quality, so we did not want to use cheaper alternatives with lesser quality of flavour. We use Valrhona, which is B-corp certified, ethical and highly-regarded as the best couverture chocolate in the professional and chef world. We hope our customers can understand and continue to support us.
