Luxury Chocolates from Lauden
Product Review – First Class chocolatesÂ
Lauden is a Leeds based luxury chocolate producer, founded and run by husband and wife team Stephen and Sun Trigg. This married pair of self-taught chocolatiers have taken the UK by storm, winning countless awards for their striking chocolates which are also served on British Airways First Class flights and supplied to the likes of Fortnum and Mason.
Today I’m trying out the BA First Class selection box, made up of 24 chocolates of 6 different flavours. Visually the chocolates are all stunning, and each flavour is printed with a different edible pattern of vibrant whirls and flowers.
The salted caramel chocolates are my favourites – made from a treacle that is heavy with molasses and a well-judged hint of fleur de sel. The lemon chocolates are also surprisingly good, turning a flavour that I am usually ambivalent to into something that I quite enjoy. Crisp dark chocolate shells are filled with a reduction of lemon and white chocolate, with flecks of lemon zest throughout.
I love the chocolates from Lauden – the intensity of the ganache that comes full throttle, the vibrant prints and the delicate dark chocolate shells.

You’re definitely a lady who deserves the best in life xx
Aww thanks Angie!
Those chocolates look amazing, I’ve always wondered how they do the printing on them. Shame you couldn’t make it to the picnic, hope to meet you soon!

They’re so vibrant, I love all the patterns and there are so many others too. We need to meet asap!! Hopefully an opportunity will come up soon xx
The salted caramel ones are to die for, but I also adore the lime (though they don’t do any that aren’t stunning!)
Ohh the lime ones sound gorgeous! I will definitely be ordering some of those xxx
Haha, I’m with an older man and I’ve always been demanding as ever-loving duck. Not with restaurants so much though ;)
Why so much chocolate and none of it in my belly? I’m all hungry and stuff now…
Demanding is the only way to be, and I’m quite sure it’s irreversible, so my future plus one will just have to be excellent. If you know of any men of excellence, then I will totes swap you posh choccies for them ;)
They’re probably not good enough for you! I hang with the lowly sort
Lol lies! xx
