The idea of working in a chocolate factory conjures up images of opulent chocolate fountains, gorgeous scents wafting in the air and an endless supply of delectable sweet treats throughout the day. “The amazing thing about this job is that everyone has fantasies about working in a chocolate factory,” says Mullins. “I don’t do Easter eggs, because I don’t have enough space for the moulds and the eggs. “Even the name of our chocolate, Grá, lets people know that there’s a lot of love that goes into what we do. “I think all of the amazing artisan chocolatiers around Ireland are collectively showing and educating our customers about what chocolate is, so it’s a really exciting time in the Irish chocolate world.”Linehan is also more than positive about the overall Irish chocolate trade.
