With Mother’s Day just around the corner, what better way to gift your mum or mother-figure in your life than with an indulgent box of Irish-made chocolates.



If you’re a chocolate lover like us, there’s no such thing as too much chocolate. While we all have our favourites when it comes to chocolate, there are some great Irish brands making delicious sweet treats that you may not have tried before. Lots of the smaller artisan makers can be found in independent stores and Irish produce-supporting shops and supermarkets around the country, so keep an eye out in the lead up to Mother’s Day and, of course, Easter!

Hazel Mountain Chocolate

Listed as one of the world’s smallest artisan chocolate factories, Hazel Mountain Chocolate produces rich luxury chocolates. From bean to bar chocolate bars, coffees and truffles. If you’re feeling tempted, you can visit the Hazel Mountain Chocolate cafe in Galway, nestled in the breathtaking Burren. A perfect chocolate day out in Ireland’s scenic west.
