Giveaway: – Chocolate and Love and who doesn’t love chocolate!!
When Richard O’Connor’s daughter became old enough to eat chocolate he wanted to make sure she ate only the best!
Richard and his partner struggled to find quality, organic chocolate so they decided to make their own. They sourced excellent great quality chocolate and committed to pay a fair price to the growers sourcing their ingredients for their chocolate from certified Fairtrade co-operatives, as well as the cane sugar, vanilla and coffee (their Coffee Bar – 55% dark chocolate with coffee was in fact my favourite). Their cacao comes from Peru, The Dominican Republic – rich with notes of red berries and Panama – decadent and incredibly smooth. With the support of Fairtrade Premium the farmers can invest in their own communities including ensuring a supply of clean water.
Chocolate and Love has won Great Taste awards – 15 so far and they are confident of more in the future.
When I met Richard O/Connor he challenged me to taste his chocolate and not find it incredible. He was right – this chocolate is a rare treat.
This is not only a delicious collection but visually eye ‘candy’ as well! Richard and his partner Birgitte worked with designers in New York to produce the beautiful wrappers for their chocolate bars. The lovely floral wrappers are a delight with their cacao pods, cacao flowers, orange flowers, mint leaves, cocoa beans and so many other beautiful designs.
This chocolate indeed was delicious and the wrappers are so pretty.
My favourite was the coffee one – I just love the wrappers too!
I love to eat it and sometimes it might make it into my cake x
There is nothing quite like a home made chocolate cake made with great quality chocolate!!
Already following on instagram x
Great news – keep following and hopefully entering my giveaways!
I love chocolate its delicious , I enjoy it most with a cup of tea. Thanks for the chance to win x
My perfect moment is a sip of coffee and a square of great chocolate and just let it melt in my mouth.
I am not a great chocolate fan but the wrappers look so colourful and pretty.
They are indeed beautiful wrappers designed just for this wonderful chocolate
I love to bake, and my favorite recipes have chocolate in them – brownies, pumpkin chocolate-chip muffins, chocolate-peanut-butter buckeyes, chocolate zucchini bread…
pumpkin chocolate chip muffins – wow these sound amazing!
I do prefer to just eat it but also enjoy making chocolate cake or cheesecakes although some always ends up getting eaten while I'm cooking!
I find it hard to cook with it – it never lasts long in this house!
I like to eat ,drink ,bake and cook savoury dishes with it
I added some to a chilli I made recently – it just adds that special flavour!

I"m following you on instagram – I love your beautiful sunflowers!!!
Thanks for the instagram follow – the sunflower was self seeded by a bird probably
I intend to bake with it, but I have to get at least double or triple what I need because I love eating it plain, too!
Great to have enough to nibble when you are cooking!
When it comes to dark chocolate I just love to eat it.
My favourite is white chocolate which isn't really chocolate at all. Ironic!
I read about this chocolate recently in a magazine. It sounds delicious. I like eating squares straight from the packet 🙂
Hope you win. Then you can try some!
I don't actually eat it myself – my husband loves chocolate though, as a snack or a dessert. And if he had these, I would totally grab the wrappers after he'd eaten the contents, as a crafter I'm sure I could use them, they are stunning
The wrappers are so beautiful that I hate to open them!! Weird I know!
Just beautiful, would love yo try it.
You really should try it Janice
I like to eat it most of all.
In our household it is eating it, even when attempting a cake the chocolate gets eaten…

I am a total chocoholic! I love baking with chocolate, from making chocolate cakes with ganache icing, to chocolate brownies! I love a drinking chocolate made with hot milk and topped with cream and a flake, and of course, there is nothing nicer than an evening in either watching a good film or reading a book with a bar or box of choccies!

This is the best chocolate I have ever eaten, I use the sea salt one to bake with it gives an amazing flavour to chocolate cake and I eat the rest. The mint flavour is my favourite x
