Pride with Mildreds: Disco chocolate truffles

Throughout the year but especially now, we remember the history, struggles and achievements of LGBTQ+ communities and are reminded that the fight for equality is not over.

It is an uncomfortable truth that many LGBTQ+ individuals still face discrimination, prejudice and violence. It’s important to reflect on the challenges that persist and continue in our advocacy to build a more inclusive society.

Each year, we collaborate with a different LGBTQ+ charity during Pride. This year we will be supporting Diversity Role Models, a UK-wide charity working with schools to end LGBTQ+ bullying through educational workshops and role model storytelling. They educate young people about difference, challenging stereotypes and addressing the misuse of language. They aim to shape a world where everyone embraces diversity and can thrive.

We’ve created Pride chocolate truffle disco balls – filled with chocolate cake and ganache, coated in chocolate and dusted with glitter – which will be for sale for the month of June. 100% of the profits from the truffle sales will be donated to Diversity Role Models.
