Bilby & Friends Collection - Haigh's Chocolates

So ecstatic to share a recent collaboration with Australia's oldest family-owned chocolate maker making fine chocolates from the cocoa bean since 1915, Haigh's Chocolates.

Available from all Haigh's stores and online from their website. It was an absolute honour and pleasure to work with the Haigh's team in order to create these gorgeous new products.
