clodagh mckenna has always been very generous about shouting out her love of cocoa bean chocolates. whenever she gets the opportunity on radio, tv, print or in person, she tells people our story and apparently even hands out our bars to filming crews.
we first met at selfridges in manchester late in 2004. emily and i were doing a tempering demonstration in our early days and felt a bit clumsy in front of the crowds after a sleepless night on a freight ferry and a hair-raising drive in our new, very big cocoa bean van. in contrast, clodagh was cheerful, bright eyed and accomplished! she was also friendly and encouraging and inspired by her presence, we did manage to produce a batch of beautifully shiny orange zest chocolate bars for the baying crowds!now clodagh has some super stylish aprons that are delightful, frivolous and great for when getting changed into a fancy frock is the last thing on your list.
the website also has a good list of farmers markets - even more wonderful now spring is in the air!
