Luxury Handmade Chocolates
Handmade luxury chocolates are a true indulgence, handcrafted with precision and passion in small batches in my kitchen in Surrey, using traditional methods.
These exquisite treats offer the ultimate decadence, with a texture that’s smooth and velvety and flavours that are rich and bold. Every bite is a sensory experience, deliverying a delightfully delicate balance of sweetness and complexity. The artisanal nature of the process ensures that each piece is unique, with a quality that’s impossible to replicate through mass production.
With a perfect balance of art and science, these tempting treats are the perfect gift for anyone who appreciates the finer things in life.
It is important to me that my ingredients reflect my core values. I want you to enjoy my chocolates, but not at the expense of the environment or the people who produce my ingredients. I use high quality and sustainable couverture chocolate from Valrhona and natural colours to achieve the jewellery like surface which is hand painted with coloured cocoa butter.

My intention is always to minimise my environmental impact whilst bringing the joy of delicious chocolates to my lovely customers, many of whom live close by. I do not have any employees at the moment, although it is my intention to recruit a trainee that I can train to become my assistant and potential successor. They will need to share my values, care for our environment, attention to detail and love of chocolate.
I buy from sustainable, ethically responsible sources and the ingredients are locally sourced wherever possible, although I must accept that we can't grow cocoa in England! I use recyclable packaging (even the ribbons!) and distribution is via Royal Mail. If I am personally delivering I use my own electric vehicle which is charged from my solar panels with battery storage.
I have a dedicated space in my home (5-star hygiene rated) to make the chocolates which eliminates the need to commute or have a separate building to heat or light etc.
I supply discounted chocolates to my wider family, local village activities and events.
So, you can see that environmental and social responsibility is firmly embedded in what I do as The Cottage Chocolatier and will continue to be a driving force in my decision making!
