Cocktails & Chocolate

We are so excited to have brought some recent partners onboard, to share some of our favourite snacks and make sure you have something to nibble alongside your cocktails! 

We wanted to tell you a bit more about our very first partner, Pump Street Chocolate.

Famous in our joint home county of Suffolk, Pump Street has a loyal following and an excellent reputation for home made deliciousness!

Pump Street was founded in November 2010 by father and daughter team Chris and Joanna Brennan. It is the result of Chris’ years developing his skills as a self-taught baker and later chocolate maker, and Joanna’s enthusiasm for all things gourmande.

'While we started making chocolate in our pastry section in 2012, we quickly moved into one of the adjoining rooms in the old barn which houses the bakery, and a year later took on a couple more rooms there. By the beginning of 2017 we could see that the space there was not going to support our chocolate making ambitions for much longer, and found an old military vehicle record-keeping building, disused for decades, at Bentwaters Parks in Rendlesham.

We now have the capacity to make the chocolate using the same process but to house a larger team and more equipment in order to be able to make more small batches concurrently.'

 

Pump Street carefully source their cocoa beans from all corners of the world, including Ecuador, Grenada, Honduras, Jamaica, Madagascar & the Solomon Islands. Every product you buy is labelled with the origin, so you can see exactly which estate and even which farmer, your chocolate began its life with. 

We're so proud to be sold alongside a fellow Suffolk brand as highly regarded as Pump Street and we're sure you agree that a little box of cocktails and chocolate makes the perfect gift!
