Anyway you may be please that we have stopped selling the Dark Secrets design and have a whole bunch of new ideas that may tickle your fancy a bit more. You may also be pleased to hear that for some time now we have been making all of our chocolate for Europe in Switzerland and that we are moving all of of our chocolate making to our one facility in Switzerland so that we can be as hands on with the making of or bars as we are with the design. We tried contracting out in the USA but it hasn't really worked as we were not able to be as hands on as were were back in New Zealand. Unfortunately to supply the world with chocolate New Zealand was not the best location so we packed up our bags and moved to Europe. With our Swiss chocolate makers we now have real confidence as to where our ingredients come from, we can make sure there are no additives etc and as we are all together in one place we can make chocolate for the world that we are as proud of as the boxes they go in. Currently we are making a 75% cocoa Dark, a 3% cocoa Milk and we use the same Milk chocolate to make our Milk chocolate with Hazelnuts- my favourite. We are also working on a Fairtrade/Organics range which we are very excited about. Thank you again for your comments.

I bought three, and I can agree, they are delicious! It has to be some of the best chocolate I have ever tasted. My all time favorite is Original Hawaiian Chocolate Co. If you ever see chocolate from Bloomsberg in NZ BUY IT! They had ones for x-mas at Raley’s for 99 cents each from the same company. I bought three, and I can agree, they are delicious!
