The first reviews come in!
We were reviewed in VUE magazine today by reporter Jan Hostyn. To quote:
[Kerstin's Chocolates'] Chocophilia gourmet chocolates are small bars with a bit of a twist. I was lucky enough to enjoy a sample at the Italian Centre one day and can see how the Chocophilia Pumpkin Pie - a milk chocolate bar covered with graham cracker bits and flavoured with nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon - can become habit-forming.
