Banish all memories of terrible coffeeflavoured chocolates with Caffeines curated selection. Phil Wain dons his hair net.

Box Of Delights

Which chocolate is always left until last in your selection box? We’d wager it’s the coffee cream. The combination of sickly sweet and bitter coffee never really appealed to us either. But we decided to take it as a challenge – is it possible to create a box of great-tasting speciality coffee chocolates? Being coffee obsessives, our thoughts turned to chocolates that match the flavour notes of specific coffees. So we sought a chocolatier who could turn our dream into a reality.

Our search led us to Paul A Young, regarded by many as the UK’s leading chocolatier. These chocolate experts use couverture chocolate – high-quality chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa butter – produced by others and then create their own special alchemy. Paul is known for his innovative and groundbreaking creations. Inspired by a trip to India, for example, he created peshwari naan and mango lassi chocolates.

This year I’m giving coffee centre stage on the Christmas dessert table. I firmly believe coffee shouldn’t just be an afterthought to accompany dessert, it should be the dessert – but aside from that, it just makes sense.
