Trading at markets is the thing that keeps the fire in my business-belly and was the the reason I started Dark Matters after moving away from London. I’d been a stallholder at Greenwich Market with my little chocolate company in 2010 and completely fell in love with the environment, the people and the joy of seeing people enjoy something you’ve made in person. It’s bloody hard work and there are tears and tantrums (lol), but the buzz you get after a busy market day beats any 9-5!

When I say I love doing events and seeing customers face to face, I really REALLY mean it! ?
Hopefully more to confirm as we get into the swing of 2023 ?

Other lovely stuff!

?Only 2 days left of 20% VCARD discount – you can even make advance orders for future dates by letting us know when you’d like them for in the Comments box at checkout
? February’s Goth Box limited edition Valentine’s special is ? that close to being sold out – woohoo! I’m so excited to show you its innards! Most of it will be handmade by yours truly, even the non-edible extras, which I might come to regret but projects like this are what make me happy, so thank you if you’ve ever bought a special edition box!
?ALSO ALSO ALSO we’ve just put out our yearly drop of our double brownie gooey hearts which will be online for the next 2 weeks only! Available in Gothberry (dark mixed berry) Raspberry (from last year’s emo special) and our OG Salted Caramel. These will sell out and are a customer favourite so don’t leave it too late to order!

This week I’ve mostly been doing battle with receipts to finish my tax return whilst listening to our Goth Valentines playlist, I’ve dropped it below so you can enjoy it too! (The playlist, not the tax return….)

Love & bats & stuff,
