- I got to share Chloe’s Pecan Pie chocolate with everyone! I always love how people enjoy different chocolates. The others we tasted were: Black Forest by Ellie Smith of Cocoa & Ginger, Blackberry Cream Cheese plus Lemon & Honey by Jade Boswell of Bitesize Bakehouse, Mandarin and Gingerbread by Louis Beckett, and a Caramel Truffle by Tim Fisher

- I was sent the Christmas selection from Sur Chocolates which promptly reminded me to buy some for my family for Christmas. These chocolate-covered alfajores are SO good. The Christmas selection included a walnut, hazelnut and almond alfajor with 33% white chocolate and dried fruits, a green apple cider alfajor with 47% milk chocolate and a fruity panattone alfajor with 70% dark chocolate.

- I went to the Cocoa Runners Craft Chocolate market and bought myself Duffy’s 65% chocolate with raspberry. I never *need* to buy chocolates but I do like to get more of my favourites occasionally.
- There’s a woman local to me called Sangita who makes the best Indian food. If you ever need catering in or near Forest Gate, hit her up!
