Giveaway: Chocolate and Love

I was really pleased to meet the people from Chocolate and Love again this year at an event in July. They have a few new bars of their incredible chocolate and as such sent me the new collection to review.
Their current collection contains eight bars of Fairtrade, Organic award winning chocolate. There is:-
ORANGE 65% - dark chocolate with orange
MINT 67% - dark chocolate with mint crunch
COFFEE 55% - dark chocolate with coffee
POMEGRANATE 70% pomegranate & almond
SEA SALT 55% - chocolate with caramel & sea salt (this one is my favourite)
CREAMY DARK 55% chocolate with milk & cacao nibs
PANAMA 80% - single origin dark chocolate
RICH DARK 71% - dark chocolate

All of the chocolates in the Chocolate and Love range is organic without compromise and dedicated to the Fairtrade movement providing a fair wage to the cocoa farmers as well as helping them to set up co-operatives helping to improve their lives.

The full story of Chocolate and Love is printed inside each bar of chocolate.  Expanding on their care for the environment the inner foil wrapper is a biological packaging produced with renewable materials and made from sustainably harvested wood!

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.

If you would like to win a box like the one above with four x 100g bars - one of each of Sea Salt (55% dark chocolate with caramel and sea salt), Filthy Rich (71% dark chocolate), Orange (65% dark chocolate with orange) and Creamy Dark (55% creamy dark chocolate and cacao nibs) then complete the Rafflecopter option below:-
