After a long summer out of action due to drain problems, Marc Demarquette‘s Fulham Road shop is back open again. We hear that drain problems caused by renovations kept the shop closed, but now Marc’s back with new products and has just been commissioned by Fortnum & Mason to create a collection of fresh hand-made chocolates made from ingredients sold in the Fortnum’s store.
Marc will be at F&M during Chocolate Week for sampling of his new creations.
