Today is World Chocolate Day and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate that than by looking at the process of how our shop-bought chocolate bars are made and how they might benefit our health! We’ll also look at the differences between dark, milk and white chocolate and recommend some of our favourite chocolate recipes below!

Soupologie Profiling – Ancient Grains
Amaranth, flaxseed and millet are the fantastic trio of ancient grains that make up our Ancient Grains soup! So, today I want to give you the low-down on all that these grains have to offer. Our Ancient Grains soup has been a Soupologie classic for quite a few years now. It’s an understated and quietly self-assured soup. The base is a light tomato flavour with a slight nuttiness from the grains. The beans add a soft texture and a beautiful mellow flavour, all seasoned to perfection.
