After years in the making, Attica and Koko Black have joined forces and crafted an utterly creative limited-edition degustation gift box, and a retail range of three handcrafted chocolates. Signature dishes that put Ben Shewry and Attica on the map have been reinterpreted as chocolate, pushing the boundaries of what we know and love about food. Pre-orders for the degustation box are available on Koko Black’s website now, and the retail range is now available to purchase.
