The Duchess of Sussex has released a new limited-edition chocolate collection under her lifestyle brand As Ever, just weeks after her Netflix series faced criticism. The As Ever x Compartès range, handcrafted in Los Angeles, features four flavours including milk chocolate with shortbread cookies and bee pollen, white chocolate with flower sprinkles and hemp hearts, dark chocolate with raspberry spread and sea salt, and dark chocolate with strawberry spread and champenoise brut.
Priced at $14 (£10) per bar, the chocolates are described as 'a love letter in chocolate' and are wrapped in a botanic print. Markle announced the launch on Instagram, writing: 'The first launch of our Valentine’s Day Collection is here. Thoughtfully made for sharing, gifting, and slow mornings at home with loved ones.' The collection has already sold out online, though other As Ever products such as herbal teas and candles remain available.
The launch comes after Markle's Netflix lifestyle series faced criticism from some viewers and critics. The brand, which previously sold out items like homemade preserves, flower sprinkles, and Napa Valley wine, continues to generate significant consumer interest. The chocolate bars are available exclusively through the As Ever website.
