History of Bendicks Chocolates ...
Bendicks, initially established as both a chocolate and pastry confectioner, was formed by Mr Benson and Colonel Dickson in 1930. They were originally based in Kensington but opened several further shops, including one in Mayfair to meet the ever-increasing demand for their chocolates.
Bendicks created its famous Bittermint in 1931. The recipe was invented by the sister-in-law of Mr Benson and has remained a secret ever since. A high percentage peppermint oil and dark chocolate with 95% cocoa solids are combined to create a totally unique mint chocolate.
It was the start of the company's national and international reputation as manufacturers of high quality chocolates.

The first shop was at 173 New Bond Street in Mayfair, London. This shop has remained in Mayfair ever since, and now occupies a prime site in the Royal Arcade on Old Bond Street, London.
