Bonjour mon amis....
Firstly, big apologies for not posting anything in a while as we know how much you lot like reading about the stuff that doesn't happen. Harry has been away moonlighting as a male model which is why we haven't posted anything for a while (that last bit was a lie he just forgot).
Anyway on a more serious note we have been attending major awards ceremonies and picking up some super new customers. So first things first we were in the running for Best New Startup at the South Cheshire Business Awards. Sadly we didn't win due to the fact that when asked in the interview what happens if we get bored, instead of Harry saying he never gets bored. He selected the words "I'd actually quite like to be an astronaut", which I don't think the judge took very seriously. Anyway it was nice to be chosen and a finalist and it was still a great night at the awards.
We have picked up a few new customers since we've been gone. Our first new customer is The Victorian in Stockport, which is a lovely pub managed by Alan. Our next new customer is one we've been after for quite some time, Tarporley Chocolate Shop in Tarporley (funnily enough), which considering Charlie (yes the chocolate shop really is owned by a man called Charlie) makes some of the best chocolates in the country, it's quite nice to have our products along side his. Our final new customer is yet another JW Lees pub (we're trying to get them all in a similar way to Pokemon just with less balls). The Kingfisher, which is now stocking every flavour we've ever thought to make. So make sure wherever you're ordering your hot chocolate you check its Harry's first.
I think that's about all the news we have now. Oh and I forgot to say Harry and the mrs bought a house yesterday, so those of you who are currently buying Harry's products, if you could immediately buy double the amount as Harry now has a mortgage to pay....
We hope you all have a brilliant Christmas.
Much love,
Harry & The Cows.

Presents and cake can only mean one thing.....
Hello everybody,
I know what you're thinking and no Harry isn't pregnant. In fact it was his birthday!! Happy 25th birthday Harry for last week. He got a new pair of trainers, so we can only assume his girlfriends trying to tell him something.
I suppose if Harry's another year older that must mean Harry's Milkshake & Munchies is now 1 year old. It's crazy how fast the time has gone and how much we've learnt over the past year. But 4 counties and 30 shops later we're still growing nicely. We even picked up a new customer this last week. A fantastic little cafe that's just opened up in Audlem called The Pinfold. Why not pop in this week and grab yourself a milkshake and a piece of cake. I'm sure Kate would love to say hello. We wish them all the luck with their new venture and hope its a raving success.
Much love,
Harry & The Cows.

Sandwiches to sing about
Good morning everybody,
I hope you're all enjoying this fine weather we've been having. Word on the street is it's going to get hotter so make sure to slap on the sun lotion. We just thought we'd say hello and update you on our newest customer. The Cheshire Sandwich Company based on Godstall street in Chester, for those of you who don't know where it is, it's up on the rows in the centre of town. Go up the steps next to Cafe Nero and its just above there. It's worth finding as well. Owned by a very nice gentleman going by the name of Dave, whom I don't think has ever had anyone enter into his sandwich shop without having a full on chat with them. The sandwiches are to die for, especially my personal favourite the coronation chicken and the service is second to none. Oh and they now have the best milkshakes in town. So if you're stuck for what to have for lunch today, this is the place!
On another note we're at the Four Seasons Food Festival in Uttoxeter this weekend, and we're bringing some new flavours with us, we haven't decided whether it'll be Mint Chocolate or Cookies and Cream yet so maybe you should tell us what you would prefer. Hopefully we'll see you all there.
Much love,
Harry & The Cows.

We're moving South
Hello Milkshake & Munchie lovers,
I hope you all had a nice weekend, we went water skiing on Sunday although it was more water face planting as Harry is useless.... Anyway on another note we have another customer, and this one found us, it's always nice to be wanted. So you can now purchase your beloved Harry's Milshake & Munchies at Oakes Farm Shop in Coventry, it's a beautiful farm shop which has grown incredibly over the past 2 years, I have yet to ask what their secret is. If any of you are about next weekend Harry is planning on doing a product tasting next Saturday so make sure you pop along and try out some of our lovely products.
See you soon,
Much love Harry & the cows.

June update
Hello everybody,
Sorry for the lack of contact recently, we've just been enjoying a spot of nice weather for once. Sadly as we look out of the window today its raining so I guess summers over for this year.
In the past few weeks we've been very busy though. We picked up 2 new customers, the first being an awesome restaurant and bar in Tarporley going by the name of Piste, it's one i've been after for months, they finally came to their senses and decided to stock our hot chocolate. The second customer is The Bull at Shocklach which has very recently re-opened and when i get a spare 5 minutes i'll definitely be going for dinner there, it looked amazing when I dropped their order off.
We've also been busy on the show circuit, for those of you who didn't pop by we were at Bolesworth Classic Showjumping Competition the other week, in the glorious sunshine, it was a fantastic show so we'll definitely be back for more next year, as long as they let us.
Today though we're working on a new product the 'crunchy munchie' which will be a sort of chocolate brownie with honeycomb pieces, at the moment we're still battling to get the honeycomb perfect. If anyone wants to volunteer as a taster then please feel free, theres only so much hot chocolate and munchies one can eat.
See you all soon hopefully.
Much love,
Harry & the Cows.

COMPETITION TIME
Hello fellow fans,
Not only did we forget to mention that Harry's has now spread nationwide after we got our first customer in Staffordshire. The lovely Emma Bridgewater Pottery Factory. But we picked up 2 new customers this week. Firstly the very cute Mad Hatters cafe in Chester, who make some of the coolest cupcakes I've ever seen. So if you're in Chester for lunch make sure to pop along and have a look.
We would also like to announce we are now stocking officially the best tea shop in the country, and thats a fact! You may have seen Davenports Tea Shop on the news recently after being awarded this accreditation, but they're now stocking our hot chocolate and milkshakes so make sure to run along and have a look before it gets too busy to get through the doors.
Also we'd just like to add we'll be at Tatton Park Food Festival on the 17th, 18th & 19th of May so make sure you come along and say hello. As a celebration we're giving away 3 pairs of tickets to the show as well as a voucher for a free milkshake. In order to win the tickets all you have to do is take a photo of an ingredient you would like to see as a milkshake or hot chocolate, the coolest, yummiest and weirdest ones will win the tickets so get your thinking caps on. Either post your photos to Facebook and tag Harry's Milkshake & Munchies in it or email your photos to thecows@harrysmilkshakes.co.uk. Good luck everybody, entries end on the 10th of May.
Much love,
Harry & The Cows

NEW CUSTOMER #1
As promised we are going to fill you in on a few details about our 6 latest customers to come on board as stockists. Apologies for not getting round to doing this sooner but Harry was ill. So quit your complaining.
The first customer to join our gang is The Blue Moon in Chester.
A superb little restaurant / cafe / cool place / river side hang out joint. Personally one of our favourite places to be seen eating a fish finger sandwich in Chester, it has recently changed hands to a lovely lady called Sarah, who is probably one of the friendliest people in the world. So now that its nearly summer what better place to be than on the river banks of Chester watching the boats go by, who knows you might even spot Harry rowing past if your lucky enough. For more information about how cool they are then take a look at their website, just click here. Just make sure to have the hot chocolate when you pop in, it's the finest in town!!
Much love,
Harry & The Cows.
