STOP THE PRESS - Eating dark chocolate stops wrinkles!
This amazing article appeared on November 5th in the London Metro and I just had to share it. ...scientists have found that nibbling a bit of dark chocolate each day can prevent signs of ageing caused by the sun and may even lower the risk of skin cancer. However, before you reach for the Kit Kats, bear in mind that these benefits come only from dark chocolate high in flavanols.
These are the antioxidants – compounds known to prevent cell damage - found naturally in cocoa beans, the main ingredient in chocolate.
But most chocolate goods on sale in the UK have had their antioxidant capacity greatly reduced during processing. Read more....
Of course we all now know that our CHOC Chick Kits and ingredients include the highest levels of antioxidant flavanols, so all we need to do is make and enjoy lots of delicious raw chocolate!

It's CHOC Chicos Time!

Announcing the arrival of new cheeky chocolate making kits for kids

---

It is with great pleasure that Galia Orme and the rest of the CHOC Chicks announce the arrival of CHOC Chicos, the latest addition to their family, weighing in at a healthy £9.95.

CHOC Chicos, the cheeky chocolate making kit for kids, will make its debut at this year's Specialty Fine Food Fair in London on 1st September 2012 at stand number 183.

Exclusively for children, this chocolate making kit includes organic cacao butter and powder, Sweet Freedom (low GL natural sweetener), mini cases and a recipe book with simple recipes and fun facts about chocolate.

Raw chocolate is very easy to make and an ideal activity for children. It does not require tempering (as is needed in traditional chocolate making) or any special equipment and takes only 20-30 minutes to set in a freezer.

CHOC Chick Company Director, Galia Orme is delighted with their new product line. “We are very proud of our new addition and like the rest of our family of healthy chocolate making kits, CHOC Chicos is ethically sourced and free from dairy, gluten, eggs, soya additives and processed sugar. It’s a wonderful gift idea for children and our kits are not only fun to make but a great alternative to processed and sugar laden confectionary.” she commented.

The beautifully packaged CHOC Chicos kits will be available in time for Christmas from September 2012 at a recommended retail price of £9.95 online at www.chocchick.com and selected retailers.                                                                 -

Heston's Chocolate Feasts.

---

We were delighted to be a part of Heston’s Chocolate Factory Feast shown on Channel 4, April 6^th 2010 and it was certainly a night to remember.

Much fun and chocolate making was had by all and a bemused and slightly scared Heston Blumenthal joined us naughty chocolate ladies making chili chocolates, cheeky chocolate cocktails and sumptuous raw cocoa hand and body scrubs.

Everyone was very excited and it did get quite raunchy (I still have to watch some of it with my hands in front of my face) but thank you Mr. Blumenthal for being such a good sport!

How wonderful to be featured in Woman Magazine this week (22/9/10) and see a photo of me and my gorgeous girls! The topic was what was the best advice you ever had and I am eternally grateful to my supportive family and step-mother-in-law Jennie for constantly telling me to “feel the fear and do it anyway!”. It’s definitely my motto in life now.
