A chocolate factory at all costs?
Features - Blog
Is it just me, or was this week's 'Willy's Wonky Chocolate Factory ' a bit more controversial than usual?
 
I'm not talking about 15th century Aztec drinks (an interesting but unlikely choice!), or the connoisseur chocolate purists (more later) - what really shocked me was the bailiffs.

Coming Soon: The Great Easter Egg Hunt
The News - Latest Chocolate Related News

 Why hunt for Fairtrade Easter Eggs?

An estimated 12,000 children have been trafficked into cocoa farms in Cote D'Ivoire, in Africa. Nearly half the world's chocolate is made from cocoa grown in the Cote D'Ivoire.

 
When we buy chocolate we are being forced to be oppressors ourselves as we have no guarantee that the chocolate we eat is 'traffik free' .
 
Stop the Traffik want to know where you found fair-trade Easter Eggs and how easy they were to find.  

Visit their website to upload a photo of your hunt, and tell them about the experience
 
Our actions will show the chocolate industry that we will not stop campaigning until the trafficking of children is stopped.
 
(I found mine in Oxfam, by the way. The Co-op also sells gorgeous looking Fairtrade Belgian Chocolate Easter Eggs with Chocolate Truffles , but not in my local shop). 
 
 (I'm hoping for the 'Burnt Sugar Milk Chocolate Easter Egg with Honeycomb ' myself).

Willie's Wonky Chocolate Factory
Features - Blog
Can't think why, but something's giving me a chocolate craving on Sunday nights... Could it be the gradual emergence of Willie's Wonky Chocolate Factory on Channel 4? 
 
Like a chocolatey cross between the River Cottage and The Apprentice, this fascinating show follows chocolate enthusiast Willie and his family through (so far) setting up a cacao plantation in Venezuela, a chocolate milling factory near Tiverton, a sales presentation at Selfridges and a farmers' market in Cullompton.
