Tried these after seeing them mentioned on a food forum, and they are miles ahead of the big brand bars I was buying before. The milk bar is creamier and less sugary, which I did not expect. Ordering was simple and the bars came in a sturdy box. Not my first purchase now.

I have been buying their drinking chocolate for about six years now, mostly the dark one for the winter. This time I picked up the larger tub and it lasted far longer than the last one I got. Delivery has always been reliable and the tub arrived intact. Still the best hot chocolate I have found at home.

Compared a few options for a housewarming gift and this was the one I went with. The presentation is nicer than the others I looked at, and the chocolate tastes more interesting. Checkout was simple and the box came in good shape. Would give it to someone again.

I have been ordering their dark milk bar for a good few years now, usually the big bundle for the cupboard. It is always well wrapped and turns up on the day they promise. Prices have crept up a bit but the quality is still there. Happy with it.

The bars taste lovely but the box arrived with one of the bars cracked in half. Not a disaster but it was a bit disappointing to open. Ordered on my phone and the checkout was fine. Delivery was fine too.

I would say these are the finest chocolates we have had in our house for some time. The box arrived well within the window they gave us, and it was packed carefully so nothing had shifted. My husband, who is particular about his sweets, has already asked when we might order again. The dark ginger bar in particular is a real treat, and we shared it over the weekend with our neighbours who were quite taken with it too.

I had looked at a couple of other artisan chocolate makers before ordering, and these came out ahead for me. The bars have a clean snap and a flavour that lasts, where the others tasted flat. Delivery was quick and everything arrived in good order. Now my first port of call.

The chocolate itself is lovely, the orange one in particular is really well balanced. My only gripe is delivery took about a week when the site said two to three days. Got a message asking me to be patient which was fine but I had already planned a gift around it. The bars were still in perfect condition when they finally turned up. Would order again but I would allow more time.

Had compared a few boxes from different chocolate makers before settling on the single origin selection. This one had the most distinct flavours between bars, and the Ecuador one tasted of dried fruit. Ordering was straightforward and the box arrived well packed. Going to be my go to from now on.

Needed something for my sister's birthday and forgot until the day before. Ordered in the evening on my phone, checkout was quick and it got here the next afternoon. Chocolate was really good, she messaged me straight away saying it was her favourite. Would definitely go back.

Needed a small gift for a colleague's leaving do. Ordered on the site but the box was smaller than I expected for the money. Taste is good but I would have liked more bars for the price. Got there in time.

Got the sampler box for my mum for her birthday and she was dead pleased. There are loads of different bars in it so she can try a few. The little bags inside were all sealed so nothing was broken. Ordering was dead easy on my phone. Might get one for myself at Christmas.

Wanted something nice for my partner after a rough week at work. Went for the dark chocolate box and ordered it the same evening. It turned up before the weekend and she was really chuffed. Simple as that.

We were having people over and I needed something a bit special for pudding that was not just a shop bought cake. Found these on the site and the box looked lovely on the table. Everyone was asking where they came from. Glad I went with it.

Way nicer than the petrol station bars I usually grab when I'm skint. The dark one has a proper deep flavour and it's not sickly at all. Took a bit longer to arrive than I hoped but it was worth it.

Honest verdict is that this is some of the best bean to bar I have tried from a UK maker. I buy a lot of single origin bars and the origin notes on the packs are accurate, the Madagascan one has real red fruit. The texture is smooth without being waxy. Only wish they did a few more origins.

The chocolate is genuinely good, the salted one is my favourite. Had one bar that was slightly softer than the rest, probably from the heat on the doorstep. Sending it back was a faff though, I had to fill in a form and wait for a label. Worth it for the taste but I would not rush to return anything.

Honestly way better than the Cadbury stuff I usually grab from Tesco, the chocolate actually tastes like something. Ordered on the site on a Tuesday and it turned up Thursday, which was fast. Packaging was nice too, didnt feel cheap. Bit pricier than the supermarket but totally worth it for a gift.

We had friends round for supper on Saturday and I wanted a pudding that felt a bit more considered than a shop cake. I went for the chocolate torte kit and it came with clear instructions, which saved me fretting. The chocolate has real depth and my wife, who is hard to please on sweets, asked where it came from. Ordering was straightforward and it arrived in plenty of time. We'll be using them again for the next dinner party.

I was rather taken with the sea salt caramel bar, which had a proper crunch of salt through it rather than just sweetness. I bought it for my book club and it was gone within the hour, so I have ordered another one for next week. The packaging was tidy and the bar arrived in good condition, which I appreciated.
