To celebrate 20 years of leading chocolate tours and tastings, I invited some of the people and businesses in the chocolate industry that are as committed to ethical, great tasting chocolate as I am.
What better way to celebrate than eat delicious things?
From Glasgow to Bristol to Brighton and beyond, we enjoyed bars, filled chocolates, baked goods, drinks, patisserie, ice cream and art from 25 different individuals and businesses.
