We are so proud to have received a total of 29 awards in the prestigious Academy of Chocolate Awards in London since 2018. This includes being placed on the Roll of Honour Board as an International Rising Star for 2018. The past three years have been full of trials and tribulations, trying to establish a brand and to perfect a fairly new skill in the highly competitive and very quickly growing market of fine chocolate. To receive so many awards, including a total of 5 gold awards in just two years of competing in the world's longest running and most prestigious fine chocolate competition, is the greatest honor. It really demonstrates that when you put your heart and soul into something you love, it pays off.
