Willie Harcourt Cooze, the star of the Channel 4 series ‘Willie’s Wonky Chocolate Factory’, grew up on a windswept island off the west coast of Ireland where a childhood spent making cheese, smoking fish and pickling fruit inspired his enduring passion for food and adventure.

 He has devoted the last eleven years of his life to producing chocolate from bean to bar and now has ten different 100% cylinder bars and nine dark chocolate bars all with different flavour notes, his 100% cacao bar which is harvested from El Tesoro, his family’s hacienda in the beautiful Venezuelan cloud forest was the first.  

Willie now lives in Devon, where his chocolate factory is based and has just had his second book, Willie’s Chocolate Bible published.
