Did you know that the 7th of July is World Chocolate Day? Celebration of this day encourages us to consume chocolate, and what a coincidence, as the Lerwick high street is now home to a brand new bespoke chocolate shop - the Mirrie Dancers Chocolatier!
This week Dave Williams, with over 30 years experience in the world of all things food, officially opened his new business venture after months of planning, preparation and chocolate courses.
Dave has managed to infuse the magical colours of the northern lights (or 'mirrie dancers' in Shetland dialect) with the rich taste of his hand made chocolates to create a bespoke product exclusive to the islands.
At last year's Shetland Food Festival Dave wowed visitors with his seaweed infused dark chocolate slab, and an idea was born.
