Chocolates are always good bets as presents for Christmas. But there’s so much more than milk, dark and white chocolates. Read on to discover a world of multi-flavoured choccies!

There is a place in southeast London – called The Melange Chocolate – that serves nothing but chocolates. Well, technically. But these are not just chocolates. What Isabelle, the lovely lady who runs it, sells is a result of continuous research in mixing flavours with dark, milk and white chocolates. Her award-winning creations bring different effects on the senses. There’s orange and chilli if you’re in a bit of a fiery mood; there’s also coriander and grapefruit should you feel quite adventurous.

If you fancy mixing your own flavours, The Melange Chocolate also hosts chocolate making workshops. Check the website for dates and prices.

So if you seriously enjoy the by-product of the heavenly cocoa bean then you shouldn’t miss this little but cosy spot south of the river Thames.
