About Us
Hello, we are Anna and Andy and we make chocolate, but not the usual sugary type. No, we make it with fresh raw delicious local honey, bursting with vitamins, minerals, enzymes and even friendly bacteria from bees’ tummies. Straight from the beehive and into the chocolate mix. Not only is it healthier this way, but it’s tastier too.
The honey we use comes from family run apiaries around the beautiful Devon countryside and especially the coastal town of Teignmouth where we are based. Our most important job is to preserve the honey’s raw state and its healing properties within our chocolate. For this we make sure we keep our cooking cycles below 38°C.
Traditional chocolate is made with cocoa, which is a product of roasting raw cacao beans at high temperature, destroying all the goodness and then adding sugar and additives. Unroasted cacao, which we use, is full of antioxidant properties and has been known for its health benefits since Aztec times. Not to mention, it tastes better this way!
So, we have a team of two superfoods, creating a perfect guilt free treat.
We never put any “nasties” in like white, brown or coconut sugar, preservatives, sweeteners, emulsifiers or trans fats. Even the fruit and nut toppings on our bars are free from added sugar, oils and sulphites. You name it, we don’t put it in!
A great choice for anybody wanting to eliminate processed foods from their diet. Our Teignhouse Honey Chocolate is as natural as can be and we hope you enjoy it!
