The new Honeycomb Chilli Chocolate has made it to full production. Crunchy, chewy and melt-in-your-mouth all at once! It's a delicious combination of sweet cinder toffee/honeycomb with our classic 60% cocoa Belgian chocolate.
We developed this new flavour with the Youth Enterprise Team at Oreston primary school in Devon. We donate money to the school for each packet sold.
Add it to your Easter shopping list for chilli fans and chocolate connoisseurs alike.
