THE DELICIOUS DARKROOM CHOCOLATE
As you know, we adore connecting with local suppliers and are delighted to welcome DARKROOM chocolate to the shelves at the Stores.
These divine craft Chocolate makers based in Norwich, have one foot solidly placed in our local community and one very much further afield as they ethically source their delicious ingredients from all over the globe.
We caught up with them to learn more (and we’d very much like to echo the sentiments of their last answer)…
Tell us a bit about yourself
We're Darkroom Chocolate, a dark chocolate micro-factory based in Anglia Square Norwich.
We do things a little differently - we make chocolate with just 2 ingredients: cacao and sugar.
This means all our 70% bars from different origins taste very different to each other, with loads of interesting natural flavour.
What made you set up your own business?
To create something
Who is part of your team?
Mike and Natalie are the founders, Freya is our amazingly creative number two, and Lily is our latest addition and learning fast!
Not forgetting Pumpkin the rescue staffy!
What are your plans for the future?
Immediate future - to find a new home when Anglia Square is demolished next year!
Longer term - to make dark chocolate so good it maybe even converts some diehard milk chocolate lovers...!
What's the best thing about the area you live in?
The committed customers who spend their hard-earned money in the independent stores.
Simply put - without their support, Norwich would be yet another boring city full of chains, not the diverse and interesting city it has become.
