JAZ AND JUL’S CHOCOLATE HOUSE - www.jazandjuls.co.uk
For those who avoid gluten, you will understand the perils
of drinking hot chocolate, but at the far end of Chapel Market, you will find
Jaz & Jul’s Chocolate house, a quaint café that serves, you guessed it, (GF)
chocolate.
With flavours to tempt every taste bud such as; single
origin flakes (ideal for the cocoa purists out there!), an option to add a
cheeky shot of liquor (the ultimate boozy treat) or signature blends such as
chilli, orange or masala mojo – a chocolate homage to the chai latte – each handmade
hot choccy makes you stop for a moment and say “wow”. These luxury hot cups manage
to not only be delicate in flavour but dark and indulgent, they cater
beautifully to the adult palette.
Certified organic, all the ingredients are ethically sourced
and every drink (bar white chocolate) can be made dairy free and vegan, with
the use of almond milk, coconut whipped cream and VEGAN MARSHMALLOWS!
The vegan marshmallows (made with caragenan seaweed instead
of gelatine) are served as standard and absolutely stunned me; they were light,
bouncy, sweet but not too sickly and what treat to be able to safely have them
on top of a hot chocolate!
If one chocolate item isn’t enough (is it ever?!) Jaz &
Jul’s also serve a gluten free chocolate & coconut tart and for savoury
lovers a perfectly spiced farinatta pancake! They also sell 14 of their
chocolate mixes to take home and are available at over 100 wholesalers
including Selfridges. What’s more J&J are at Broadway Market every
Saturday, they are served in a range of coffee shops around London and also appear
at festivals in the summer!
It’s safe to say that my gluten free hot chocolate worries
are over.
