7 years ago today. I recovered from the fire that destroyed my business, but not so much from being called "Willy Wonka" on the front page of the local newspaper.

Chocolate of the day: Soma Chocolate Bejofo Madagascar 70%.

It opens up like deep, fudgy raspberry jam, then builds in cocoa-fudgy intensity, only to have this rather gently bitter/astringent finish. And it's super creamy and smooth thanks to the added cocoa butter! I'm tempted to pair it with a strong black tea to see if they can enhance each other, but it's so good on its own.

And yes, that bird is wearing sneakers.

Sick in bed with Covid, but at least I have some proper comfort food.

Two bars of Scottish bean-to-bar chocolate; A 60% Honduras origin dark milk chocolate from Bare Bones Chocolate in Glasgow, and a 40% Hazelnut Gianduja from The Chocolate Tree in Edinburgh.

That should keep me going for a while.

Sunday afternoon treat 🍫🍫🍫

This "Damson" #chocolate bar by Zart Pralinen in Austria is actually Liquorice & Sea Salt flavour, and named for my business Damson Chocolate.

When I closed the business I decided to share all our recipes and methods and make them "Open Source". Emile at Zart based the recipe for this bar on mine and won an Academy of Chocolate Award with it!

Open Source rocks, even for chocolate recipes!
