Technically it's called a share bag. 😏🍫

Our Ultimate Dark Chocolate Buttons are, in theory, designed for sharing. 1kg of rich, smooth single origin Colombian dark chocolate buttons, in a bag generously labelled "share."

We're not saying Dad won't share them. We're just saying that if you want one, you might want to be quick.

The perfect Father's Day gift for the dark chocolate lover in your life and an excellent test of his generosity!

Here's your guilt-free excuse to eat more dark chocolate.

Seven years ago we wrote about the benefits of dark chocolate. We've just updated the blog, and if anything, the science has only got better.

More antioxidants than blueberries. Better for your heart than red wine. Good for your gut, your brain, your mood and, this one surprised us, potentially your hearing too!

That afternoon square isn't self-indulgence. It's self-care. Science says so.

Happy National Biscuit Day! 🍪

If you’re going to celebrate, do it properly. Our Chocolate Fudge Topped Cookies are rich and indulgent. So whether you’re vegan or just someone who loves a really good biscuit, these are for you.

The best part? This recipe comes straight from the brilliant team at Choc & Co, our community café here in York, where they bake them fresh every single day. We may have eaten several in the name of research. We regret nothing

Full recipe on the blog now 💖

We'll let our customers do the talking. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Choc Affair? HELL yeah!! Supposedly I now have a dairy intolerance so I thought I’d try this oat chocolate. It’s incredible. Can’t even tell it’s not milk chocolate. Great variety of flavours… 10/10. The company posted the chocolate immediately and I received it quickly. Highly recommend Choc Affair"

Twenty years of making chocolate in York, and reviews like these still make the whole team stop and smile. Shop our Oat Range here > https://bit.ly/4n8V4rW

Important summer announcement 🍫☀️

Please do not put your chocolate in the fridge.

We know. It's tempting. But cold, damp conditions cause bloom - a pale, dusty coating that affects the texture - and chocolate absorbs whatever else is in there. You do not want your Raspberry & Rose tasting of last night's leftovers. Trust us on this one.

For the science behind it, see the full guide on the blog. Your chocolate will thank you. 🍫

Throughout 2025, our dedicated funded programme with Luker Chocolate, Chocokids benefited 121 kids and 45 parents/caregivers. As part of our commitment to do more, we pay an extra 5% per kilo of chocolate to help fund vital work in Colombian communities.

Eating chocolate feels good, but knowing that each bite helps to support our community feels great

Some things we're just quietly, deeply proud of. This is one of them. ☕

Three years ago, we played our part in helping to establish - a community café in the heart of York that creates employment and support for people facing real barriers to work.

Last year, they were winners of BBC Radio Make A Difference Community Award. We couldn't be more delighted for the whole team there.

If you're ever in York, go and say hello. And tell them Choc Affair sent you.

He's been with us since he was 17. We think that says everything. 💛

To celebrate our 20th anniversary, we've been sharing the fondest memories of our incredible team. Next up is the lovely Samson, or Sammy to most of us.

Sammy's standout memory is one that made us all a little nostalgic. Back in the early days, we used to make chocolate mice and frogs - wrapped one by one. Sammy was part of the team that made them.

They're retired now, but if you remember them, you'll know exactly why they're worth remembering.

Thank you, Sammy. Choc Affair wouldn't be what it is without the people who've been here from the beginning 💖
