Fredericks Chocolates

June is looking delicious at Fredericks.
We’re giving away a Cream Tea for Two, and entering couldn’t be easier — just spend £10 or more in store and your name goes straight into the draw.

The winning entry will be picked by one lucky customer on Tuesday 30th June, and we’ll be streaming it live. We’ll call the winner on the day, and you’ll have one month to redeem your prize.

It’s our way of saying thank you for supporting your local, family‑run chocolatier, sweet shop and café.
Good luck to everyone who enters — we can’t wait to treat the winner.

This is a cause very personal to me. Some of you have met my sister Julie, my Nephew Martin and the adorable Heidi and it's thanks to this charity Helping Hounds that they have received so much support where so many avenues have failed them. If you can, please help them to help others

We're fundraising for Helpful Hounds, who have supported the whole family with Martin's life-changing assistance dog, Heidi. As a young man with complex needs, Heidi brings comfort, confidence, companionship, and emotional support every single day.

Quick question: How hot is too hot to make chocolate? Asking for a friend... (and by friend, we mean ourselves, standing over warm chocolate in this heat) 🍫☀️🌡️

​Yes, we are officially out of our minds, but we have a fantastic reason!

​We are busy whipping up a batch of your favourite chunky bars and 2 new flavours, "Cherry Caramel & Mallow Krispie" and "Peanut Butter & Salted Caramel"🛠️✨ We are getting a fresh new look, which means we need to get our chocolate-making done now before we melt away!​

​In the meantime, swipe through to see what we've been crafting. 😍

​👇 How are you keeping cool today? Ice water, fans, or just sheer willpower? Let us know!
