More Cacao, Less Sugar
Making our chocolates, our mantra has always been ‘More Cacao, Less Sugar’. Cacao will always be our number-one ingredient. We’re also committed to using only real, natural ingredients – nothing artificial, ever. Nature supplies all we need.
Hotel Chocolat
British Cacao Grower
Original, authentic, ethical.
Our three guiding principals have taken us to over 150 chocolate shops and also café’s, restaurants and even a cacao estate hotel.
The very first Hotel Chocolat shop opened its doors to guests in North London in 2004, it was the start of a revolution in British chocolate. Two entrepreneurs were on a mission to make chocolate exiting again.

Hotel Chocolat
“I wanted to express the escapist thrill of good chocolate. That’s where the name Hotel Chocolat came from. ‘Chocolat’ sounds like the seductive melt taking place and ‘Hotel’ promises a place to escape to.”
Angus Thirlwell, CEO and Co-founder

OriginalityWe’re constantly striving to be fresh, creative and innovative, and always one surprising step ahead. Right from the start, we’ve never played by the rules of what people said a chocolate company should be. |
AuthenticityChocolate starts at the roots of the cacao tree. We’re one of the world’s few chocolate makers to actually grow cacao, on our beautiful Rabot Estate plantation in Saint Lucia. Connecting cacao-growing with luxury chocolate making and retailing makes us unique in the UK, and gives us an in-depth understanding of the factors that impact the final flavour of our chocolate. |
EthicsFor us, being ethical is about doing the right thing, not just saying it, whether it’s making cacao fairer for farmers, taking care of our environment, or just being straight with people. |
The Inventing Room
Our Cambridgeshire Inventing Room is where the magic happens. It’s here that our chocolatiers get creative, experimenting with daring new chocolate recipes and uncompromising ingredients. Each recipe is rigorously tested in our weekly tasting meetings to ensure that only the finest go into our Tasting Club selections. Once scored by our Tasting Club subscribers, the top tier of these then make it onto our shelves.
