I have a desk! Yippee to me!

Hi chocolate lovers! 🍫💌

Our very first Easter with an actual Easter egg… and you completely cleared us out! Eggstravaganza sold out faster than an espresso filled bunny – we’re still catching our breath over here. Honestly, it felt like Christmas V2 (but with more sunshine and fewer carols).

After the choccy madness Easter gave, Jamie and I got to slow down a bit over the Easter Weekend– long walks, vegan roasts at the award-winning Roundhill pub in Brighton (run, don’t walk there – their vegan sticky toffee pudding is unreal 🤤). Highly recommend. And of course, plently of chocolate.

Behind the scenes, it’s been full-on R&D central lately – you might’ve spotted our cheeky teaser email? The new O’bar is already getting serious buzz, and since the chocolate world is moving fast with a certain trend, we thought… why not jump in too? Keep your eyes peeled this May 👀🍫

🎂 Jamie turns 24 on May 22nd! I’m dusting off my baking apron (send cake luck, please) and I promise to show you how it turns out. Expect chocolate, chaos, and candles.

A huge THANK YOU is in order – our first four months of 2025 are up a staggering 300% year-on-year! The kind messages, 5* reviews, the tags, the choc-filled love... it's been unbelievably fulfilling and it keeps us up to date with what you want, what you want improving and that you love, love, love our chocs as much as we do! You guys are the best.

In addition to the O’bar, something seriously exciting is coming this summer. We zipped over to Wales to check in on our brand-new chocolate moulds, and when I tell you this one’s a game-changer… it's giving big "Catherine's Originals" energy. Think: summer flavours, creamy textures, and a whole lot of magic.

Also! We did it – we finally have an official office. No more sofa-serving or kitchen table hopping. We each have our own desk and I’ve got a very comfy white swivel chair 🙌

We asked you what you’d love to see for Easter 2026 and the answer was loud and clear: Mini Eggs. Duly noted. 👀

Stay sweet,
Catherine x
