skills, and after an inspirational trip to Brussels, I finally worked out how to consistently hand-temper Belgian chocolate.  I started developing a range, held a couple of successful Christmas events and rented a shelf in a local craft shop to sell them.  It went well, so I decided to create an online store to sell them nationwide.  I specialise in personalised slabs, flavoured slabs and Yorkshire Dales inspired products for all the visitors to the region.  I use a mix of widely available moulds and moulds I have made myself and use my cake skills to enhance them to make them unique.  This side of my business has grown so much now, that i own a small tempering machine to help me get through all my orders. I do still hand temper some chocolates too including all Ruby chocolate items.

I enjoy the challenge of making cakes and chocolates and, being a perfectionist, I am always seeking out new techniques, products and recipes to make sure that they are as good as they can be.  Please do check back from time to time as I am always developing new ideas.
