Starting A Chocolate Business

by Shikha
(London, UK)

Hey.. Congratulations on the wonderful work that you have been doing.. I started my own lil chocolate business in India..(obviously inspired by you).


I have relocated to London after my marriage.. was just wondering if you would know any shops here that would have all the chocolate making stuff...the ingredients, moulds, flavours etc..
I know this would be a trouble.. but need your help here..


Looking forward to hearing from you soon..

Hi Shikha,

Thank you so much for your lovely and encouraging words. I'm glad to hear you are still interested in starting a chocolate business again in London.


I haven't personally had any experience buying chocolate and candy making supplies in the UK, but I've done a little looking around and found some sources for you.


Home Chocolate Factory,
Unit 1750, SafeStore,
1,000 North Circular Road,

I don't know if either of those locations are anywhere near you, but perhaps you can find what you are looking for there.


Here's some good news for you. We are just opening up Chocolate Candy Mall's store feature. It should be live within the week for those interested in starting a chocolate business online to make their products available for sale in their part of the world.


We are working out the last little programming glitches as we speak, but you are welcome to take a look and see how it will work and if you think it will be helpful to you in getting your own chocolate candy business started.


Blessings,
Angie
