‘Can’ the habit and swap your 11 o’clock aspartame fix for a piece or two of truly stunning chocolate.
Through extensive research (gaining a Belgian Royal Warrant in the process), Galler Chocolates has established that 11 am is the perfect time for a sensory overload of the cocoa kind.
According to Helen Heslop, Galler Concession Manager, “11 am is an optimum time to treat your taste buds to chocolate. At this time in the day the human body has warmed and awoken sufficiently to appreciate complex flavours, while the mouths natural saliva has also settled allowing subtle notes to be enjoyed,” she also adds, ” some people find that chocolate containing red berry notes such as the Galler Heritage Noir 70 variety, is particularly comforting due to our natural hunter-gatherer and foraging instincts.”
Combine this timely revelation with the fact that chocolate’s flavonoid-rich qualities can help to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and you’re onto a guilt-free winner.
Galler Chocolates have just opened an incredible concession in Harrods of London, where the same expertise, passion and knowledge placed in every chocolate will be extended to visitors (the team are almost as delicious as their product).
Can’t get to harrods? fear not for the Galler website allows you to order and have your treats delivered worldwide. They’ve also a nifty little discount code (below), giving you 10% off your totally selfless chocolate Christmas gifts.
