The sap is rising for our flavour of the month

SECRET GLADE is our flavour of the month for APRIL. 

This flavour was inspired by a special ingredient we discovered - Birch Syrup. Like Maple Syrup, it's made by tapping birch trees in Spring when the sap is rising to collect the sweet, nutritious sap. When collected, it's almost clear and subtly flavoured - it needs to be reduced down to concentrate the flavour. What you end up with is a sticky, almost black syrup with a rich, fruity, slightly smokey flavour. It takes 100 litres of sap to make just one litre of syrup! 

We add the syrup with raspberries to make a delicious ganache which fills our 55% dark chocolate shells. These are decorated to resemble the black and white pattern of birch tree bark.
