Dormouse Chocolates has been celebrated for its commitment to crafting high-quality, ethically sourced chocolates, and this recent success further solidifies its reputation as a leading name in the artisanal chocolate industry.

Among the awards won were a bronze for their Afromuvaras Woman’s Association 60% Milk Chocolate, a silver for their Qori Warmi Peru 75% Dark Chocolate, and a stunning four gold awards for their unique Bread-and-Butter bars.

The Bread-and-Butter bars, known for their smooth chocolate and nostalgic flavours, also took home the title of overall winner in the Flavoured Chocolate Bars category.

This innovative creation has become a favourite among chocolate enthusiasts, celebrated for its distinctive blend of rich chocolate and comforting, familiar flavours.

Doormouse Chocolate founder Isobel Carse

Founder Isobel Carse expressed her delight at the achievement: “We are incredibly honoured by this recognition. Each award reflects our dedication to quality and the exceptional cacao we source.”

She added, “Our team has worked tirelessly to create chocolates that not only taste amazing but also tell a story of where they come from. It’s wonderful to see our efforts recognised on such a prestigious platform.”

From bean to bar

The journey of Dormouse Chocolates began with a simple mission: to create chocolates that showcase the unique flavours of single-estate cacao.

This dedication to quality and sustainability has been at the heart of their operations, from bean to bar.

Each chocolate bar showcases the careful selection of cacao beans, the meticulous crafting process, and the passion that the team pours into their work.

Beyond the accolades, Dormouse Chocolates continues to engage with the local community, offering workshops and tastings to educate people about the art of chocolate making.
