Another offering from Tesco's pet Swiss chocolatier, and this time it's a milk chocolate. This one is made using Ghanaian Forastero Beans, and they give it a full-bodied, very smooth cocoa flavour.

Here’s another in our (somewhat ir)regular series of video tutorials. This time, it’s all about portrait photography. How To Take Portrait Photos...
Holy f***! Everyone's favourite sweary chef has a range of f***ing chocolates! But are they any f***ing good, or is Gordon Ramsay just cashing in on his f***ing name again? Let's find out!

...This is the first of the three bars from Kakawa Chocolate House. I think it was the coloring that drew my eye. A normal, sophisticated black, but with a lime green border and light orange wording.
