What: Duke of Delhi Chocolate Chunk Delhi Mix (£4).
Where from: Fortnum & Mason (dukeofdelhi.com).
Taste assessment: Crisps and chocolate are two things I truly believe I could not live without. But together? Never. Well, bizarrely, this little desk snack made by two London entrepreneurs might have nailed that combination. The contents look just like Bombay mix but they’ve brought the flavour forward a few years and you can choose from dark chocolate, honeycomb and dried orange mixes. Each mouthful gives you crunchy salted and spiced puffed rice, seeds and crisps ending with pieces of sweeter dark chocolate. For me and other surprised colleagues, this was a hit.
