What an incredible weekend at Bord Bia Bloom in Dublin’s Phoenix Park! The sun was shining, the gardens were in full colour, and the energy was buzzing — the perfect setting to celebrate all things handmade, local, and Irish.
We were proud to showcase Áine’s Handmade Chocolate at one of Ireland’s most beloved summer events, and even prouder to officially unveil our fresh new brand identity to chocolate lovers from across the country.
🍫 A Sweet Launch: New Look, Same Award-Winning Taste
This year’s Bloom was extra special as we introduced our bold new branding, which reflects our passion, heritage, and commitment to excellence. From our rich purple displays to the gold “Handmade in Cavan” emblem, the updated look was a hit with both long-time customers and new faces alike.
While our packaging may be new, rest assured — the chocolate inside remains the same premium, handmade product we’ve proudly crafted in Co. Cavan, Ireland for decades.
🌿 Bloom Crowds, Big Smiles & Chocolate Conversations
It was a joy to meet so many of you in person — from chocolate connoisseurs to curious samplers. The enthusiasm, compliments, and even recipe ideas you shared made the weekend extra memorable.
Visitors especially loved:
Our gluten-free and preservative-free chocolate bars
The indulgent chocolate buttons (perfect for fountains!)
Our gift-ready packaging, ideal for communions, thank-you gifts and celebrations
Your feedback inspires us to keep innovating while staying true to our roots — truly handmade, truly Irish chocolate.
