How has this got no reviews! I'm new to Brighton so been wandering and exploring all the little nooks and crannies of the city and I come across Be Chocolat....had no intention of buying anything but after working my way through 4 or 5 different tasters I just couldn't resist!

It has also put me off purchasing anything else from the shop. 3 stars because the sauce was great otherwise would be 1 star.
