The Chocolate Festival & those Fairtrade After Dinner Mints

Glad tidings, fellow chocolate addicts - next week is the Chocolate Festival. To celebrate, sixteen deluxe chocolatiers will be hawking their goods around the UK (there's an event list here) and donating a portion of the profits to CLIC Sargent, a kids' cancer charity. Amongst their number is Divine, whose £3.50 After Dinner Mints (pictured) have just gone on sale in Oxfams across the nation (and online). As well as being the first Fairtrade alternative to After Eights, I can attest from first hand experience that they taste superb. The chocolate's suitably bitter, the mint is perfectly piquant and you can only eat a couple at a time - the exact opposite of bland old After Eights.
