We’re now well into February, which means that we can all now admit that our January ‘lifestyle change’ was nothing more than a poor attempt at a diet. We’re back to our old ways and the sweet tooth is out in full force, so why not satisfy that chocolate craving with some amazing treats from Devon chocolatiers?
