You can find a full list of ingredients and allergy information on the product page for each of our products. All our products are packaged with full ingredients information on them to UK packaging standards. Further, all packaging also refers to possible allergens that the item may contain.
We maintain rigorous segregation and sanitation practices when making all our products, but please be aware that we do craft all our chocolates in our Dorset chocolate kitchen by hand. We do not have separate rooms to make all our non-dairy or no-nut etc products in, so we cannot give 100% guarantees of any of our products being 100% free-from any particular allergen.
For items that contain milk and dairy products, it is flagged on their product page and on their ingredients list. For our product ranges which do not contain milk and dairy products, they are marked as 'may contain milk', as we are unable to 100% guarantee that they will not contain traces.
We are very proud that nearly all the chocolate we work with is soya-free, including our signature 47% milk, 43% oat m!lk, 72% dark, 80% dark, 100% dark and blonde chocolate grades. However, our Colombia origin white chocolate & 58% dark chocolate (only used in our Triple Chocolate bars & chocolate chip scones in our cafes) does still contain soya lecithin. For items that contain soya lecithin, it is flagged on their product page and on their ingredients list. All other products will have soya flagged as a 'may contain' allergen.
None of our chocolates contain gluten in their recipes but wheat will be flagged as 'may contain' as we do work with gluten for items made on our premises in Dorset for our chocolate cafes.
We work with a variety of different nuts including hazelnuts, cashews, almonds, pecans and pistachios - in either solid or nut butter form. Products which do not contain nuts are flagged as 'may contain', as we are unable to 100% guarantee that they will not contain traces.
Though none of our products directly contain peanuts, some of our ingredients (mostly our dried fruits, nuts, seeds and spices) are sourced from factories which also handle peanuts. For products containing those ingredients we are unable to 100% guarantee they won't contain traces and there are subsidiary trace allergen risk warnings on the relevant products on our packaging.
We do not use any dried fruits that contain sulphites and only work with two alcohols that contain sulphites (tawny port and pedro ximinez sherry) which are used to make just two chocolates, both of which are seasonal winter flavours only. We flag that these alcohols contain sulphites on their ingredients list. It is then listed as 'may contain' as an allergen risk for other products.
Though none of our products directly contain sesame, some of our dried fruits, nuts, seeds and spices are sourced from factories that also handle sesame. For products containing those ingredients we are unable to 100% guarantee they won't contain traces.
We do not use products, or purchase products from suppliers, that contain, fish, crustaceans, molluscs or lupin.
