Melting Whisk
Fun, Flavourful, Luxury Chocolates • Handmade in Dawlish • Bold Colours & Big Flavours
Melting Whisk is an artisan chocolatier based in Dawlish, South Devon, specialising in vibrant, handcrafted bonbons, luxury chocolates and playful confectionery packed with bold, dessert‑inspired flavours. Founded in 2022 by chocolatier and former baker Ash Bickham, the business began when Ash started experimenting with truffles for his wife during lockdown — a creative spark that quickly evolved into a thriving local brand.
Today, Melting Whisk is known for its joyful, colour‑splashed chocolates made without preservatives or alcohol, focusing purely on full‑bodied flavour, natural ingredients and meticulous handmade craft. Each chocolate is designed to “taste exactly as described,” delivering a tiny dessert in every bite.
Their range includes best‑selling bonbons, snack bars and seasonal showstoppers — from Mango Passionfruit and Lemon Mallow to fully loaded Rocky Road Easter Eggs. These eye‑catching creations are stocked in delis and shops around Mid Devon, sold online, and available at markets and food festivals across the region.
Melting Whisk also supplies wholesale customers, works with wedding and corporate clients, and offers bespoke flavour commissions for personalised gifts or special events.
