Our story

One kitchen, four coppers,
and a lot of stirring.

P-Mind Goodies began in 2016 in a rented commercial kitchen with one tempering machine and a stubborn conviction that most boxed chocolate is a disappointment dressed up in a ribbon.

We still make everything the slow way. Ganache is cooked in small batches and rolled by hand the same day. Caramel goes into a copper kettle and gets stirred until it is right, which no timer has ever been able to tell us. Bars are tempered, moulded and snapped out by people, not machines.

It means we make less than we could sell. We have made our peace with that.

Hand-rolling truffles

How it is made

Three days, start to finish

Cocoa beans and nibs 01

Roast and crack

Beans come in as single harvests. We roast light, crack, winnow and mill to a paste over about eighteen hours.

Pouring the moulds 02

Conch and temper

Three days of conching takes the edge off the acidity. Then it is tempered by hand and poured, which is the part that cannot be rushed.

Finishing the bonbons 03

Fill, dip and pack

Centres are piped, left to set overnight, dipped the next morning and boxed the same afternoon.

The salted caramels are the only thing my family agrees on at Christmas. I have ordered the sampler four years running and it has never once turned up looking like it was thrown in a box.

I sent the Corporate Fifty to a client who is famously impossible to buy for. He emailed me about the honeycomb specifically. That has never happened with a gift basket.

The Ecuador bar is genuinely floral, which I did not believe until I tried it next to the Peru. The tasting flight is a lovely thing to do with a bottle of wine.
