Inside the box

Pump Street Chocolate – Madagascar, Dark Milk 55% with Halen Môn Sea Salt

This dark milk from UK-based Pump Street brings together the fruity warmth of Madagascan beans and the dulce de leche, caramelly notes from the Halen Môn sea salt.

Chocolarder – Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh, Dark 72%

All three kings come together in this spectacularly festive bar from Chocolarder. Forget chocolate oranges, cinnamon, cloves and other winter spices, Cornish craft chocolate maker Chocolarder have created a little taste of the Christmas story in chocolate form.

Zotter – Christmas Surprise, Handscooped

Filled with a caramel and almond praline and bits of white chocolate and crunchy waffles, this handscooped bar is crispy and sweet. The bar has a wafer-thin milk chocolate coated and is covered with a candy-sweet caramel couverture and a golden pattern.

Marou – Caramelised Cashew & Cinnamon, Dark 65%

This 65% dark bar from Marou is a festive and spicy treat. Covered in caramelised cashews and cinnamon, we think that this beautifully packaged bar has a crunchy, crispy texture while providing a warm and welcoming aroma.

Taza Chocolate – Mexican-style Cinnamon

Taza’s 50% dark Cinnamon bar is warmly comforting, uniquely stone-ground, and preserves history with its rustic texture and bold flavour.

Herufek – Christmas Gingerbread, Tanzania, Dark 70%

This is a special festive bar from Herufek with a classic spiced gingerbread flavour. We were reminded of lebkuchen, traditional German gingerbread with lots of other warming spices

Firetree – Mindanao, Philippines, Dark Milk 50%

This dark milk bar from Firetree is complex and delicious. The chocolate has undertones of honey and chocolate brownie, which marries perfectly with the top notes of citrus.

Heinde & Verre – Gold Piura Peru White 37%

This delicious white bar boasts strong caramel notes complemented with a soft melt and a nice length where citrus and nutmeg notes shine through. Cocoa butter from Piura beans are expertly blended with dutch cow’s milk to produce this gold award winning bar.

Jordi’s – Chantaburi, Thailand, Milk 55%

This is a creamy dark milk bar from Jordi’s, using beans from Chantaburi in Thailand. There are notes of honey, caramel, and dried tropical fruits with a pleasant acidity in the aftertaste.

Cacaosuyo – El Ganso, Peru, Dark 70%

Crowned the ‘Best Dark Chocolate in the World’ at the 2025 International Chocolate Awards, it begins with notes of vibrant juicy citrus and red fruit. The wave moves to a honey-like sweetness with some undertones of malt, and an elegant yet richness of cocoa on the finish.

Zotter – Plum Brandy

This 70% dark chocolate bar from Zotter is packed with a bold & punchy plum brandy filling. The brandy is made with long-stored blue plums, which pairs beautifully with the thin coat of dark chocolate.

ChocoMe – Chuao, Venezuela, Dark 72% with Nibs

A crunchy 72% Venezuelan dark bar from ChocoMe with cocoa nibs. This bar won Best in Show at the 2025 Northwest Chocolate Festival, so it’s certainly one to try!
