Cornish chocolate maker, Chocolarder, has invested in £100,000 specialist equipment to increase production of its artisan bean-to-bar chocolate.
The Falmouth-based firm secured finance via Truro-based asset finance provider Ignition to buy the equipment including a cooling line which helps regulate the temperature of the chocolate prior to packaging.
Chocolarder founder Mike Longman said the new cooling line is already helping to improve consistency and accelerate production.
