00:00Tell me, can you tell us a little bit about Chocolate Bar and what it's all about and

00:29where the chocolate comes from?

00:30So my name's Max and I'm the founder of Bullion Chocolate and the newly opened Chocolate Bar.

00:36So we opened a couple of weeks ago on the 24th of August in Lina's Yard and it's a bit

00:42special because it's basically all the chocolate that's served here has been stone ground in

00:49Sheffield.

00:50Obviously Bullion, you might have heard of us, we're a bean to bar chocolate brand where

00:53we source the best beans we can and we use really minimal process in order to make chocolate

00:59that has great flavour and a lot of you may have given it as presents to people but now

01:05you can actually come and bring your family and friends and indulge in it in all sorts

01:09of forms from freshly made baked goods all made with our chocolate and made in house

01:14right through to building your own drinking chocolate.

01:17So you don't have to pop in but basically there's a three step process to making your

01:22own drink.

01:23You can have it hot or ice, you choose your chocolate type so everything from white, milk,

01:28dark milk, all the way up to 90% dark and if you do want to add a flavour in as well

01:34we have a few different options for that and then taking you into the evening, we actually

01:38become Chocolate Bar and you can actually do a boozy twist, there's like, we've got

01:43over 30 spirits that you can add into your hot chocolate and also a load of chocolate

01:47cocktails so I think when it comes to chocolate we've got you covered, I think that's the

01:51main thing to take away from it.
