Attention all Abergavenny chocolate lovers: your dreams have come true – there are expert chocolate makers on your very doorstep!
There is something sensuous and hypnotic about watching a master at work with silky delicious melted chocolate. Now Abergavenny chocoholics can enjoy a first class example of chocolate magic just minutes away - Black Mountain Gold has landed in the Usk Valley.
They have a stylish gallery and workshop in the lovely surroundings of Crickhowell's Courtyard business centre where, as soon as you enter, you leave the real world behind and immerse yourself in the luxury that is quality chocolate.
This master chocolate maker's workshop will offer a fascinating glimpse into how each delicious item in the range is created, and there are plenty of samples to taste. Forbearance is not an option here! There is a fabulous chocolate shop with selections of all types of delicious chocolate treat - truffles, ganaches and creams, dark, milky and white, fruity and salty, chilli flavoured and alcoholic: every possible permutation is explored to help you select the perfect chocolate experience for your discerning palate.
Each delicious tiny delight is available on its own or in a box of three, or there are larger selections available as well as bars, slabs, Easter eggs and gift packs. There are dozens of chocolates in a variety of beautiful designs and flavours - nothing seems to be inadmissible - from tea to red chilli and from nuts to tropical fruit. Abergavenny has never been so spoiled for chocolate choice! New varieties are being added all the time and a gallery of all the superb choices in the range can be seen on the website http://www.blackmountainchocolate.co.uk/index.php
And if that wasn't treat enough, Jules the chocolate maker will allow you to taste his wares before you buy and even invite you to attend a chocolate maker workshop, to acquire the necessary skills for making unique chocolate treats and gifts of your own. The workshops take place every Saturday morning and Wednesday evening and cater for varying levels of existing knowledge from novice to the more experienced chocolate maker skill set.
Black Mountain Gold will also make chocolates to your own requirements and design, whether for wedding favours, trade promotions or customer thank-you gifts. They can replicate just about any design or logo and incorporate it into their fabulous creations, so why not contact them to see if your brand or event could benefit from having their superb hand made chocolates present on the day? They can supply larger quantities for hampers and gift packs too.
So next time you are invited to a dinner party or celebration why not take along one of Black Mountain Gold's beautiful selection boxes? Their chocolates are all hand made and each one is unique so even picking one from the box is tantalising and exciting. No high street confections can compare for quality and style, and there's no better confirmation that what you're buying is fresh than having seen it being made before your very eyes.
I'm afraid it has to be said - their chocolates and favours are totally splendid. Don't just take our word for it - read this amazing recommendation in 'The Economic Voice' in which a former non-chocolate-lover admits to being totally converted by just one taste of their delicious products. http://bit.ly/qkCDYo
