New Website

You may have noticed that things have been a bit quiet on the Beyond Chocolate blog in recent weeks. Most of our energy and attention has been going to creating our new website. We are so excited about it. We have wanted a new website for a couple of years now and finally we have one which will reflect what we do, will be easy to update and manage and which looks pretty (well, we think!).

We are launching it, all being well, fingers crossed and all that, at the end of this week and we'd love your comments and feedback. If there's anything you can't find or that doesn't make sense, or doesn't work, do drop us a line (there's a contact form on the website or you can email me at sophie[at]beyondchocolate.co.uk. There are bound to be some hiccups at the beginning and we'd love your help to get them ironed out asap.

This blog will also be on our new webiste. The webiste will have the same url as the current one www.beyondchocolate.co.uk and the blog will be part of the webiste - so this one will still be online for a while but all new posts will be on our new website.

The Chocolate Fairies are also off for a bit of sunshine and rest at the end of the month, we'll be flying off to Italy for a few weeks and we'll be positing and keeping in touch from there.

So, watch this space... we're nearly there. And thanks for your patience, normal blog posting will resume very soon!

Beyond Chocolate on Kindle

We are delighted to announce that Beyond Chocolate is now available on Kindle. Yay!! You can pre-order it from today and it will be on sale from 12th July 2012.

I swore blind that I wouldn't ever have a Kindle. I love books. Real books. Paper and ink and colourful book covers. I love the smell of a real book, the feel of it, I love everything about real, live books.

It was my birthday last week and my gift, from my husband, was a Kindle. I asked for it, tentatively, preparing to hate it. Well, not so. I LOVE it. More than that, right now I am in love with it. We went on holiday for a week and it was amazing to be able to take several books with me, and they all fitted into my handbag. Usually I spend ages deliberating which ones to take. This time I could take them all. I love the feel of it. I love how light it is. I love how easy it is to hold, how I can prop it up against the side of my bedside table to read at night - hands free. I love the Gelaskins cover that makes it look beautiful and means I don't pick up my son's by mistake. It really is wonderful. And honestly, I'm not on comission!

Beyond Temptation will be available on Kindle too, as soon as it's released on 6th September.

I am offically no longer a Luddite.
