chocs away!

Figured I should probably let you know what chocolate I am eating (see last post). Well, it's my new favourite brand - The Organic Seed and Bean Company. They produce a range of devilishly dark bars delicately flavoured with additions such as rose oil and lavender essential oil. Normally I'm of the opinion that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Dark chocolate is absolutely fine all on it's own - stop adding weird flavours like lime, ginger, anchovy etc. But these bars manage the additions so smoothly it's impossible to dislike even the more ambitious ones - Mandarin and Ginger par example. All their products are organic and fairtrade. Which is more than offered by the organic chocolate giant that is owned by Cadburys and available in a shop near you, pushing small artisan producers off the shelves.
