Chantal Coady OBE is the Chocolate Detective. A sustainable chocolate expert, founder of Rococo Chocolates and lifelong chocolate activist.

The Chocolate Detective writes,
Sporting a blue cap and proud yellow chest, the Blue Tit is a much-loved visitor to the garden. His song is loud and high-pitched and ends in a sudden trill.
Artwork is by Madeleine Floyd who has two lovely books of bird illustrations, ‘Birdsong’ and ‘Chickens, Ducks and Geese.’

Despite our Made In The UK ethos, these eggs are made in France, as no chocolate maker in the UK can make the eggs to the Chocolate Detective's standards, so she had to source from a maker from our near neighbours.
All packaging is designed and made in the UK.
