World Chocolate Day

June 27, 2019

World Chocolate Day 7th July 

We love chocolate! Who doesn't? As if we need an excuse to indulge July 7th is World Chocolate Day. From chocolate bars, ice cream, cakes, cookies & desserts we've got lots of treats in our farm shop & inspired ideas to tempt you.

Fresh from our bakery 

Chocolate is such a versatile ingredient, our baker Ian's range of classic chocolate bakes are always quick to fly off our shelves fresh from the oven; with rich chocolate brownies, crisp chocolate tiffin, our infamous millionaires shortbread & chewy chocolate chip cookies (perfect for dunking!). 

We also love to experiment with new chocolaty creations so keep your eyes peeled on your next visit to Cheerbrook for our range of loose double chocolate brownies with a different twist each week including Oreo, Malteaser & Crunchie. If you simply cant wait to get home enjoy a brownie in our cafe with a freshly ground Mocha or cool Harry's chocolate milkshake. 

Coming in the next few weeks, we're working on a new variation of a classic... our Crunchie rocky road!

Our new range of gourmet chocolate 
Just in time for World Chocolate Day we've introduced a new range of chocolate bars, buttons & hot chocolate flakes from Choc Affair. With wild & wonderful flavours from rhubarb to lime & sea salt. 

Keep it cool 
Ice cream & chocolate - the ultimate combination! Nothing's better on a sunny summer day than ice cream. 
You'll be spoilt for choice with so many flavours of Snugbury's & Cheshire Farm ice cream, in a classic cone, sat beside a dessert or a sneaky spoon from the tub! 

Warm up a Crunchie brownie & top with a dollop of ice cream & a drizzle of Cartmel chocolate sauce. 

Make a dreamy chocolate milkshake whizz two scoops of ice cream with 250ml semi-skimmed milk & dress with whipped cream & lots of chocolate treats; we love these combinations using Cheshire Farm ice cream: 
  • Malt Tease with Bon Bons marshmallows
  • Ferrero with chopped hazelnuts & shavings of milk chocolate
  • Peanut Chocolate Caramel with Cartmel caramel sauce & Bon Bons chocolate covered peanuts

Across our farm shop, butchery, deli & café we work with over 40 local suppliers, to bring you the best local food the region has to offer. With locally made fudge, hand pressed cider & freshly baked bread; fill your basket with delicious local food & drink, here at Cheerbrook. Bidlea Dairy of Holmes Chapel, supply fresh milk to our farm shop & café. The Brown family have been raising the Bidlea girls for three generations on their farm in Holmes Chapel; the herd’s bloodline can be traced back 100 years! With over 900 Holstein-Friesian cows, current farmers Adam & Becky have created the Bidlea brand, taking milk & cream into local farm shops, delis & cafés. Most recently Bidlea have ventured into ice cream production, in their farm based dairy. Grazing on luscious Cheshire grass, the herd spend the majority of the year outside, producing milk rich in protein & butter fat. Happy cows make the best milk! Taking pride in their husbandry, the Brown family's happy herd produce full flavoured, nutritious milk. A relatively new addition to Cheerbrook, Bidlea now supply all of our farm shop & café milk, as well as their rich double cream, used by our bakers in our fresh cream cakes, egg custard tarts & quiches. We’re proud to support local farmers, just like Bidlea, in their diversification!
