The Rhubarb Gin Flavour Milk Chocolate Bar 🍹🍫

We go mad for anything that states ‘rhubarb’ and ‘gin’ in the title...

The slightly tangy and very distinctive taste of rhubarb matches perfectly with the flavour of juniper and milk chocolate – and we can’t say we were surprised at how well this combination works.

This unique combination, a fan favourite, is crafted with sustainably grown chocolate and all-natural ingredients, and comes in recyclable packaging 🌿

Made with love in York, North Yorkshire, this bar is a must-try for any chocolate and gin enthusiast!

Today marks , and we’re cheering on our Operations Manager, Richard, for his contribution to the local blood bank! 🩸💪

Richard has donated blood for almost 10 years, and his next one will be donation number 35. Here's what he has to say 👇

"Over the years, a number of people close to me have needed blood transfusions for one reason or another, so I decided to become a donor myself as a way of repaying the favour.

After I began donating, I discovered the different ways in which blood can be used - almost everyone will know someone whose life has been saved or improved, either from transfusions or the development of treatments and therapies.

It only takes one hour every 12 weeks, and each one can save up to 3 lives... PLUS I get to lie back and put my feet up for a bit, and get a brew after!"

Giving blood is a powerful way to help others, and what better way to recharge afterwards than with a delicious Choc Affair chocolate? Perfect as a sweet, energising treat to get your sugar levels back up post-donation.

Thank you to all donors for making a difference ❤️
