1st June 2011 – CoCouture, Northern Ireland’s gourmet chocolatier, has won two major awards from the recent prestigious Academy of Chocolate.
The artisan company, based in Belfast, gained a gold award in the best flavoured dark bar category for its Orange Blend 3 and bronze in the hot chocolate – best unflavoured category.
CoCouture was formed in 2008 by trained chef Deirdre McCanny, who comments, “It’s marvellous to be recognised once again by such a distinguished judging panel. The awards are a tremendous endorsement of the quality and innovation which underpins CoCouture chocolates.
“The awards will help attract new customers and encourage me to develop my focus on innovation including the hot chocolate product.
CoCouture was among almost 500 chocolatiers that entered new products in the award’s 14 categories. In keeping with the aims of the academy, criteria for the awards are that products contain natural ingredients with no artificial flavourings and colourings.
