Hotel Chocolat founders, Angus Thirlwell & Peter Harris, set out on a mission to make Chocolate exciting again and to transform the way it is enjoyed. More playful and more ethical. More cocoa, less sugar.
Today, we have 160 stores in the UK plus cafés, bars and restaurants. We grow cacao at our farm in Saint Lucia where we also have a hotel. We make chocolate in Cambridge, UK and have businesses in Japan and the USA.
Our Core Values
Authenticity
It all begins with the cacao tree. As growers ourselves, with close relationships with partner farmers across the world, we have an intimate understanding of what it really takes to make great chocolate.
More Cacao
Less Sugar
We believe that chocolate should contain more cocoa than anything else, otherwise it's not really chocolate at all. Sugar is cheap and dulls the flavour of cocoa, allowing those less passionate to mask the taste of lower quality produce. We do things differently, cocoa is always the main ingredient - even in our milk and white chocolate. It's better for us and heroes the cocoa.
