adding the fizz


we are currently experimenting with adding a bit of fizz to our 'gin and tonic' chocolate bar. this has been a long standing ambition to get a subtle sparkle into the bars to recreate the bubbles of the tonic. many previous experiments (including sherbert, popping candy etc) have created too much of a novelty effect and affected the taste. then lo and behold we have discovered that a finely ground powder of dried persian limes adds a sweet and sour lime flavour with a delicious tingling sensation.  fine tuning is currently underway but expect to see these newly honed bars on the shelves in the next couple of months.
