Father's Day Chocolate Treats

Online, May 30, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Prestat, chocolatier to Her Majesty The Queen, provide the perfect solution in the form of their Great Taste Award winning artisan Sea Salt Caramel Truffles.

The magical, sweet and salt sensations are particularly popular with men. The perfect treat for Father's Day.

This is a decidedly grown up caramel, the luscious sweetness of the full-cream caramel offset with the delightful sharp clarity of crystal sea-salt. The caramel centre is held in a 70% cocoa chocolate truffle shell that is further dusted with fine cocoa powder. Taste one and you'll understand why Roald Dahl wrote, "I do so adore chocolate truffles, as Prestat makes them".

Sea Salt Caramel Truffles reatil at £11 for a 200g box. http://www.prestat.co.uk/shop/artisan-truffles/dark-sea-salt-caramel-truffles-175g.html

In 1902, a chocolate shop called Prestat was opened in London by descendants of Louis Dufour, the man who created the world's first recorded chocolate truffle.

Prestat is one of the few British artisan chocolatiers to make all its own chocolates - giving it complete control of recipes and the sourcing of ingredients as well as the opportunity to nurture the traditional skills needed to create its handcrafted chocolates.

Ever since Bill Keeling and his half-brother, Nick Crean, bought the business in 1998, Prestat has enjoyed one of the most exciting chapters in its history. Bill and Nick asked Kitty Arden, the renowned designer and illustrator, to create some fabulous new packaging and they also created many new chocolates. In 2011, Prestat began selling chocolates in the USA
