🍫 Is dark chocolate actually good for you? We investigated so you don't have to.

Cacao nibs, the heart of every chocolate bar, are packed with magnesium, copper, manganese, fibre and powerful antioxidants.

But here's the honest answer: it depends on what's in the bar.

The higher the cacao percentage, the less sugar:

A 70% dark chocolate bar contains roughly 30% sugar.
An 80% bar contains around 20%.
And yes, 100% chocolate is a real thing (it's bold, it's bitter, and paired with fresh fruit or nuts it's actually brilliant).

And the mood boost? That's real too. Compounds like phenylethylamine, serotonin and theobromine all contribute to that little lift you feel after a square or two.

Read the full article on our blog to get the whole story, including our favourite dark chocolate recommendations. 👇

Unsure what to do with the kids this weekend? 🍫

We still have a handful of spaces left this weekend, but they are filling up fast! Come and join us at The Chocolatarium for our Tour of Chocolate, where little ones (and big ones) get hands-on with real chocolate making right in the heart of Edinburgh.

They will learn where chocolate comes from, taste the real thing, and leave with memories that are a lot more fun than another weekend on the sofa.

Ginger chocolate 🫚+🍫: love it or hate it… there’s usually no in-between.

That warm, spicy kick paired with rich chocolate isn’t just random. It’s a flavour combination that works because the sweetness of chocolate 🍫 balances ginger’s heat, creating something surprisingly addictive 😋

If you’ve only ever tried the supermarket version, you’re missing the good stuff.

👉 Discover the best ginger chocolate (and which ones are actually worth trying):

Edinburgh Pub Crawl… but make it chocolate 🍫

Forget pints. Edinburgh has a better kind of crawl.

Stop 1️⃣: “Just a wee hot chocolate to start”
Stop 2️⃣: “Okay fine… I’ll try ONE truffle”
Stop 3️⃣: “Who ordered the third dessert?”
Stop 4️⃣: “I regret nothing. Pass the fudge.”

Somewhere along the Royal Mile, things escalate quickly.

Because this city is absolutely packed with chocolate shops, artisan treats and sweet surprises around every corner...

And then there’s the ultimate boss level: 💃

➡️ A full-on chocolate experience where you taste 😋, create, and basically live your best chocoholic life for 90 minutes 🍫

No hangover.

Just a sugar crash and zero regrets.

If you’re planning your own “chocolate crawl” (highly recommended), start here:
