The times Meltdown Artisan’s baked goods make their celebrity appearances are shout-out occasions . When you find them, seize the moment. They disappear so very fast.

These single origin brownies have been reborn in two new varieties after their knockout debut only weeks ago. I’ve tried them all (more than once, I confess) and they tick so many boxes. The flavours are distinctive; the depth is intense; the texture is smooth as silk. They work both as a special treat with morning tea and as comfort food in a crisis; they also make an exquisite dessert for guests. Served with a quality vanilla ice cream (such as Maggie Beer’s) or with double cream (like Tilba Dairy’s, if you can get it), they could equally well round off a meal at a top French restaurant, perhaps with a soupçon of fresh raspberry coulis on the side. I’m not surprised that, yet again, these have almost sold out. Don’t wait!

This is seriously the most incredible, carefully made, absolutely delicious chocolate you will ever eat. It is absolutely worth the price to support a business that understands the supply chain implicitly. Chocolate tastes better when it is ethical and made with artistry.

It wouldn't matter what you ordered, they are all going to be Incredible !

My husbands favourite chocolate. He's a whiskey lover, port drinker, and madman for single origin fruity filter coffee. Somehow this bar is reminiscent of a great glass of port, with the juiciness of a great filter coffee. I've never seen him so happy eating a milk chocolate before. Think fruit and nut, but without the fake flavour additives, just pure chocolate magic

These hazelnut praline bars are utterly delicious. One of the many amazing things about this chocolate maker is. how satisfying her creations are to eat. The ingredients are superb and the complexity of the flavours is fascinating. What they are not, though is “moreish”: unlike more commercial products, they do not make you want to keep wolfing them down. Instead each mouthful is a treasure. Chocolate as it’s meant to be: savoured and enjoyed. A true indulgence.

Meltdown’s caramels are possibly my favourite filling of the whole chocolate range and that’s saying a lot because I love a lot of the range. The koalas are so cute and detailed and the fact that they’re so delicious just makes them perfection.

After trying three bars in a dark chocolate selection this one emerged as my favourite. Just delicious. Hard to put my finger on why. Fruity, acidic, caramel-dark amazingness, with a wonderful even balance. Sheer joy.

This bar was so delicious! I was unable to share it even though my intentions were to share it with our guests at dinner. So beautifully rich and creamy, with a perfect balance of warmth (not too sweet - I mean it was sweet but also kind of malty) velvety texture, melts in your mouth 💕

I love all the products I have purchased. The flavoured bars are amazing with no stinginess at all on the various elements, and the unusual combinations together with the gorgeous chocolate combining to make something truly unique. The packaging is super beautiful too whether intended as a present or just a little treat for your self - and lastly, Jen takes so much care, even checking the weather forecast to ensure it always gets to you in top condition. I love purchasing from Meltdown!

The crack of these koalas can clearly be heard from the moment your teeth bite into the deep, chocolaty shell! I love the buttery oozing caramel that erupts from their shells. I can never quite decide whether to bite from the head, torso or feet 😂 So much choice!

Don’t let the cacao percentage deter you! This creamy, smooth, and decadent chocolate bar erupts with vibrant, lively and harmoniously balanced flavour notes. Superb!

I think about these cats daily. The chocolate is so smooth and every bite is satisfying. These are what got me addicted to meltdown chocolate, the hazelnut is so perfect and if there's ever a chance for other nut pralines- I recommend you jump on it immediately because the taste is genuinely like no other. I love that there's no nasties as well and I know I'm having an absolutely 100% guilt free treatie. Love the take on lucky cats too, they're so cute and I love gifting them to friends!!

Taste the white - delicious!
Taste the dark - oh, the richness!

Put a piece of each together and allow it to melt on your tongue… Welcome to Heaven! Absolutely mind altering bliss!

Artistry

These may be my favourite chocolates in the whole world (big call I know). Utterly delicious.

This is such a good blend of flavours and the split is beautiful! I love the Dong Nai so much and the oolong somehow makes it even better. I was initially wondering how I'd keep flipping the bar to get a taste of both, but it ended up disappearing so quickly it didn't really matter. Highly recommend!
