‘It’s a great place to work ” I gave up my last job so I could work here ” it’s the place everyone wants to work,’ she said.

‘And it’s always busy, particularly at Easter.’

Ms Hassan said she still gets regular chocolate cravings, despite working with the tasty delight every day.

‘This is what I was supposed to be doing. Chocolate is what I was born to do,’ she said.
