Fair Trade Chocolate gifts are a great idea! You get a great gift and the cocoa growers and workers get a fair price for their beans! Cadburys have only been using fair trade chocolate since about February 2009. It means the cocoa growers in Ghana. The Fairtrade system means farmers get a premium for their cocoa, and the price they are paid never falls below a living wage.

Some really delicious Chocolate liqueurs are available for you to enjoy. Some you may know already but others will be new. Try some delicious liqueurs with the lovely flavours of chocolate! Utterly mouthwatering and a great gift idea for Christmas!
Treat yourself to a glass of liqueur on its own first to see exactly how it tastes. You can then mix and match it with other alcohol to make some amazing chocolate cocktails.
A chocolate cocktail with a twist is:
* 1 tsp of chocolate spread (like Nutella)
* 1 strong fresh coffee
* 50ml chocolate liqueur
* 30ml coffee liquor
* 40ml fresh cream to float on top.
Put the chocolate spread in the bottom of the glass and pour the coffee on top. Pour in the liqueurs and add cream on the top over the back of a spoon.Sprinke some crumbled chocolate on top and serve.

Mozart Black shows notes of dark chocolate, vanilla, and caramel, as well as smoky and tartly notes of cocoa. Bitter sweet, long-lasting finish. The used cocoa is a special blend of the types Forastero (West Africa) and Trinitario (Caribbean). The vanilla used is real Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar. Mozart Black contains cocoa macerate, vanilla macerate, and sugarcane distillate. The cocoa and Bourbon vanilla are macerated for 30 days in sugarcane distillate.
