Happy Easter

By now you will have all been tucking into your Chocolate Easter eggs. There are many myths and stories about the Chocolate Easter egg depending on which book or website you read as well as your spiritual beliefs.
It has been great to see so many people out and about this week and the weather has started to pick up making us all feel that spring and more so summer is on the way.

All ready for Easter

While we don't sell Easter eggs, we certainly have been busy in all three shops preparing gift bags and hampers as that special Easter gift. Our new sweetie assistant in Helmsley, Katie has had a busy first few days and met many of our regular customers making their first visit of the year to Helmsley.
Harrogate has sold lots of chocolate letters and numbers as well as the lactose free Easter eggs. At Ripon we are wowing new customers who are arriving for the Easter break and seeing the shop for the first time.

Today there was an interesting tweet from Ampleforth Abbey (5 mins from the Helmsley Shop). It asked why today is known as "Spy Wednesday". I had no idea and had to go onto their link to find out why.
