Gold-dusted chocolate frogs, fluffy chocolate and apricot scones, tartlets topped with berry chocs. Oh, and there’s a glass of Perrier-Jouët there too. It’s like Willy Wonka walked out of the movies and into the InterContinental Sydney Double Bay to deliver an array of sweet treats – and it’s the good stuff. We’re talking Haigh’s Chocolates. The Haigh’s...
What do you get when a graphic animation/design whiz swaps tech life for the sweet life? Your dog’s face on a block of chocolate. Come again?
