{"title":"Audrey's Chocolates","description":"\u003cp\u003eAudrey’s, the oldest chocolatier in Sussex, has been delighting chocolate lovers with its handcrafted creations since 1948. Known for its artisanal chocolates, this family-run business has become a symbol of quality and craftsmanship, attracting customers from across the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the core of Audrey’s are its signature cream chocolates – a classic treat loved by generations. These creams, delicately flavoured and covered in rich chocolate, reflect the brand’s dedication to traditional methods and high-quality ingredients. Decades on, these cherished treats remain a key part of Audrey’s selection, alongside a range of other chocolates, each crafted with the same attention to detail that has defined Audrey’s since its founding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWilliam Pain (pictured meeting the then Prince Charles) began his career as a trainee chocolatier at Fortnum \u0026amp; Mason, during a time when the iconic store still crafted its chocolates in-house at 181 Piccadilly, Mayfair, London. As William’s skills flourished, so too did Fortnum \u0026amp; Mason’s reputation, becoming renowned for offering some of the finest chocolates in the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the war, William played a pivotal role in establishing Fortnum \u0026amp; Mason as the true home of English handmade chocolates. He later went on to run Floris Chocolatier alongside Frederick Floris at 39 Brewer Street in Soho, London — a celebrated chocolatier that would go on to supply Fortnum \u0026amp; Mason itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemarkably, to this day, some of the very tools and equipment from those chocolate kitchens — now over 100 years old — are still in use at Audrey’s, a living testament to the craft and legacy William helped to build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuy Audrey's Chocolates at Ratton Pantry.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/www.rattonpantry.co.uk\/collections\/audreys-chocolates.oembed","provider":"Ratton Pantry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
