Tim Spector – Spoon-Fed Book & Bar Gift

About the giftbox

We’ve paired Tim Spector’s ‘Spoon-Fed’ book with some of our most popular (& delicious) craft chocolate bars, so you can find out for yourself just how delicious (and good for your health) craft chocolate is in comparison to ultra-processed bars you can pick up from your local corner shop. The book and bars come beautifully presented in a Cocoa Runners Giftbox.

In 2020, Co-Founder of Zoe Tim Spector and Co-Founder of Cocoa Runners Spencer Hyman held an extremely popular Virtual Chocolate Tasting, where they discussed together Tim’s life story and dissected some of the more common myths about food and chocolate. And in September 2024 and November 2025, Spencer appeared on Zoe’s Science & Nutrition Podcast to discuss why craft chocolate is good for you.

Please note that the contents of the box may differ from those pictured in the product image. Please read the product description for an up-to-date list of bars.

This box includes the following bars:

• Menakao – Dark 80%
• Original Beans – Cru Virunga, Dark 70% (Taster bar)
• Pump Street Chocolate – Madagascar, Milk 58% (Taster bar)
• Original Beans – Esmeraldas Milk 42%
• Qantu – Bagua, Peru Dark 70%
