As you may or may not know Nottingham has a wealth of creative talent and the Dezigne Shop in Goosegate, Hockley has always been dedicated to showcasing and promoting both new and established makers and designers. We stock jewellery, clothing, bags, glassware, food items, speciality teas, art and greetings cards. 
Just before Christmas 2015 we collaborated with the guys from Prisma Clothing to create Store 51 in the Lace Market area of Nottingham and one of the new businesses we featured was Studio Chocolate. They are based in Nottingham City Centre and the chocolates are the creation of it's young chocolatier Ellie who has studied pattisserie at Le Cordon Bleu in London. The sales of The Artist Collection of chocolates was amazing ! The chocolates are inspired by some of the World's well known artists such as Picasso, Dali and Monet - the flavours are original as well as the colours used - for example the Van Gogh is a bright yellow white chocolate with a swirl of dark chocolate on top, covering a tangy passion fruit ganache.

The Dali is delicate coffee ganache coated in cardomom flavoured dark chocolate -amazing!!

The Artist Collection is available in boxes of 12 or 24 in the Dezigne shop or on line.

And now with Valentine's Day only a couple of weeks away Studio Chocolate have launched their Romance Collection -this time inspired by famous writers. Heart shaped chocolates in six luscious flavours that indulge the senses such as 

Shakespeare - smooth salted caramel encased in a milk chocolate shell and JK Rowling - champagne and milk chocolate ganache with popping candy !

The Romance Collection comes in boxes of 6, 12 or 24 and are available in the Dezigne shop or on line.

Enjoy!
