Conscious Collaboration

While many chocolatiers use cheap and easy UHT cream or sour blended supermarket creams for their production,  Iain uses a sweet fresh cream from a single herd of Scottish Friesian cows. Think of it as the “single malt” of the dairy world. Iain sources this cream from a local, family-run dairy here in Perthshire, which focuses strongly on the welfare of their animals.

Bee Neighbourly

The Scottish Heather Honey used in some of Iain’s recipes comes from a local, small-scale apiarist. The Scottish government and the Scottish Beekeepers’ Association work closely with individual and commercial beekeepers throughout Scotland to implement The Honey Bee Health Strategy – an initiative to achieve a sustainable and healthy population of honey bees for pollination and honey production in Scotland.

From Bean…

…To Box and Bag

As many people choose their diets with a view to environmental conservation, it is valuable to know that the full range of Iain’s Velvet Truffles and Pralines are suitable for vegetarians. All of Iain’s dark chocolate bars, florentines, and dipped fruits are ideal for those with a vegan diet.
