Fancy trying an iced chocolate this bank holiday weekend?
Made with real chocolate, cold, creamy, and very easy to prepare. You don’t need any fancy equipment either, just ice, milk, and good chocolate.

If you’ve only had iced chocolate made with powder or syrup before, give this a try. It’s rich, refreshing, and really satisfying.

Chocolate concentrate (makes about 300g, enough for 4 servings at 70g each):

-75g Rio Nuevo 70% drinking chocolate -225ml hot water

Melt the chocolate.
Slowly mix in the hot water until smooth.
Pour into a bottle and keep in the fridge.

To make one iced chocolate:
-Fill a glass with ice -Add 180 to 220ml cold milk -Shake chocolate concentrate and add 70g -Stir and enjoy

Cold, smooth and made with real chocolate.

A delicious and beautiful pastry.

From rainforest cacao to seaweed-based packaging.
Captured and enjoyed along the Cornish coast, a small reminder that everything we make eventually finds its way back.

Pastry and chocolate desserts in Europe are a big part of everyday life. It is simply part of the culture.

Life happens outside, around café tables, in patisseries people return to again and again for breakfast, after lunch or during an evening stroll. It might feel like a simple daily ritual, but there is a lot behind it. Good ingredients, proper technique, and people who have been doing it for years and care about getting it right.

A slow start to the weekend and a wholesome breakfast.

Do you also add dark chocolate to your porridge?

Spring days always feel pretty special and there is lots to enjoy at the gardens this month.

With spring colours all around, new arrivals at Home Farm, Easter activities for families to enjoy and even Neon Jungle, a retro roller rink! it’s a very special time to visit. And somewhere along the way a hot chocolate is a lovely little pause while you take it all in.

The knowledge that real chocolate is good for you has been passed down through generations shaping cultures and lifestyles in many parts of the world.

In many cacao growing regions, a cup of hot chocolate in the morning has simply been part of daily life and there is a reason for that. Good quality and high cacao content chocolate naturally contains minerals and nutrients that support our health, give us energy and help us stay focused and nourished through the day.

70% Chocolate mousse, orange compote, honey crisp.

When we sat with .yuste.pastry the conversation drifted to how a dessert comes together. We thought he would talk about method or technique, instead he spoke about memory, flavours he has held onto for a long time which slowly become ingredients and texture.

Then he gave a small shrug and said:
“Sometimes it is simpler. I get a bit stuck on a fruit, or an acidity or even just a colour and I start building from there”

And for you, where does it begin?

Chocolate can taste like a place you once visited.

For us, it always takes us back to Tena, in the Amazon rainforest. It is where we discovered the real taste of chocolate for the very first time, and where Río Nuevo Chocolate began.

Where does chocolate take you?
