The last of the chocolates have been snaffled so after an amazingly busy season I'm taking the opportunity to rest, reset, and get creating the next collection 🥳

The shop will be on a wee pause now until Wednesday 19th August.

Thank you for keeping me very busy I’m very grateful. See you soon 🍫✨

This is Billow & Breeze's final week at 85 Hanover Street before they head online 🌊✨

If you’ve been in, or even just wandered past, you’ll have seen how much love has been poured into every detail of that space over the past 11 months, the window display alone is a thing of beauty!

Pop into this wee treasure trove this week while you still can! 🩵✨

After a lot of thought, Billow & Breeze will be moving back to an online-first business over the next few weeks.

Our little shop has given us so many lovely moments, and we are genuinely grateful to everyone who has visited, bought from us, encouraged us and supported what we do.

The first half of the year was wonderful, but like many small independent shops, recent footfall has become much quieter. At the same time, our online sales have continued to be stronger, so transitioning mainly online feels like the most sensible way to keep Billow & Breeze moving forward and growing for Aiden.

Alongside this, I have been offered an opportunity that I simply could not refuse, so this feels like the right time to reshape Billow & Breeze in a way that works better for our family and for Aiden.

The good news is that Billow & Breeze is not going anywhere. We will continue online with our coastal inspired gifts, handmade shell pieces, jewellery and special one-of-a-kind makes.

Over the next few weeks I’ll be adding more products to the website, sharing available pieces, and keeping everyone updated on local collection options, postal orders and future plans.

Thank you so much for giving our little shop such a lovely chapter. Now it’s time for the next one.

We will close the doors to the shop on Saturday, 1st August. You can then find us at www.billowandbreeze.co.uk ♥️

Do blondes have more fun? These ones do! 🥳✨️

Biscuity blonde chocolate shells filled with a silky white chocolate ganache, infused with vanilla, a touch of peppermint, and a chilli kick.

The perfect treat for Dad (unless he still thinks a korma’s adventurous 😛🔥)

SUMMER BERRY MERINGUE - a new one for the summer season (although it doesn't feel like it right now! 👀)

- white chocolate shards with raspberries, blueberries, strawberries and meringue pieces.

Yes, we're still here! We've been a wee bit quiet on here but there is lots happening behind the scenes, and the shop is open as usual - Wednesday to Saturday, 10am to 5pm with new flavours every week 🍫🥰

We had the pleasure of being invited along to a tasting of Papa Rab's Restaurant brand new menu this evening, and what a night it was ✨

A huge congratulations to the team on a stunning new menu and absolutely stellar service. You can really feel the care and attention in every detail ❤️

We didn’t take many photos (partly due to such great company, and partly not wanting to spoil the surprise), but here’s one we had to share - the deliciously light salted caramel profiteroles, drizzled with caramelised milk chocolate sauce 😋🍫

Every dish was absolutely beautiful, thank you to all the team at Papa Rab’s Restaurant ❤️

If you haven’t booked your table yet, do it soon! You're in for a treat!

💕 WEDDING FAVOURS 💕

As wedding season is here, this is a reminder that I can offer beautiful wedding favours for your special day.

These colourful “summer brights” favours were created with Passion Fruit & Mango, and Raspberry & Rose. The couple added their own ribbons for a beautiful finishing touch 💕

Every detail can be tailored to suit you - colours, shapes, flavours - all designed to fit beautifully with your day.

There’s nothing quite like a cosy bookshop, especially when there’s a proper hot chocolate involved ☕📚

We’re a wee bit biased, but having Daisy Chain Books just a minute from our door feels pretty special 💛

And we’re proud to supply the rich 70% Ecuadorean chocolate in these delicious, smooth, creamy hot cups.

Perfect for those “just one more chapter” moments 🍫✨

If you’re in Stranraer, pop in, pick a book, and settle in with a hot chocolate done right (marshmallows, cream, all the extras are absolutely encouraged 😋✨)

There’s something special about a proper hot chocolate on a bookshop day.

Ours is made using rich 70% Ecuadorean chocolate from chocolatier Stacy Hannah Chocolates, carefully steamed with milk to create a drink that’s deeply comforting, smooth, and intensely chocolatey.

Perfect for mornings, sweet tooth afternoons, and getting lost in a good book.

Available in the shop. 📚☕🍫

PS: YES! We do marshmallows and cream, all your favourite chocolate extras!
