The Chocolate Revolution
*Healthy words alert*. These are raw, organic, sugar- and dairy-free hand-made chocolates and they’re damn fine. Pick a selection mix and order a personalised tag, too.
£11.50/eight chocolates; notonthehighstreet.com
Pacari
Award-winning Ecuadorian organic chocolate with added salt and ground cacao nibs, 70 per cent cocoa, high in antioxidants — and addictive.
£4.50, Selfridges or Alexeeva & Jones, 297 Westbourne Grove, W11; alexeevajones.com
Superseeds
The Raw Cocoa Burst tube is the new kid on the block and an ideal desk snack. Made with toasted seeds coated in raw cacao and coconut; beats choco-covered rice cakes any day.
£3.95/pack, from Barrecore Chelsea and Mayfair branches, Frame Shoreditch or punchfoods.com
IQ
Teeny bars all made with organic cocoa beans, coconut-blossom sugar and organic cocoa butter. Original, Cocoa Nib Crunch and Plush Peppermint are ones to try.
£2.49/bar, Harvey Nichols and Planet Organic shops, iqchoc.com
Hotel Chocolat
The new Pure 65 supermilk chocolate has the essence of dark chocolate but with the creaminess of milk, thanks to the fact they have replaced the excess sugar with cocoa. The fat is also mostly made up of healthier cocoa butter.
£3.75/100g, hotelchocolat.com
