I had the pleasure of sharing centre stage with this legend at the @grenadachocolatefest in 2017. @mrslyvester , the owner of @tri_island and I hosted an impromptu rum and chocolate pairing at his friends @mountcinnamongrenada . Such a fun day combining two of my favourite things; chocolate and rum and sharing the stage with a dear friend of this industry. Aaron, I am so stoked with what you have done with Tri Island, your chocolates are delicious and incredible attention to detail in your bar moulds and packaging! Can’t wait to come back and do a pairing with @westerhallrumsgrenada rum and your chocolate!!! 😍🍫👌🥃
More chocolate throwbacks. 😍❤️🍫 This time cacao jewellery. Over the years I’ve used rejected cacao beans and repurposed them for chocolate jewellery, predominantly earrings. In 2017 I was lucky enough to be invited to the Grenada chocolate festival in the Caribbean to share this and some of my other crafty uses for cacao. Grenada, like Nica, will always have a special place in my heart. I have made some great friends on that beautiful little island who have done some truly inspiring and amazing things who I hope to meet up with again one day. Scroll through the pics to see girls and guys getting crafty with cacao, and some stunning models at the end showcasing their work! ❤️🍫❤️🍫❤️🍫❤️🍫
