A popular Carlisle business is almost ready for its grand reopening, with its new sign now in place. 

Castle Chocolates confirmed earlier this summer that they would be opening in a new, bigger location, just three doors down from their current premises. 

Located on Fisher Street, next to the Old Bank, the shop has been serving sweet treats to the people of Carlisle since 2019. 

On June 20, the business confirmed that it had picked up keys for its new premises, taking over from the former First We Eat deli, and later pencilled in Saturday, August 31 as the opening date. 

A ribbon cutting is planned for 10am, this weekend, and the shop looks to be all but ready, now that the new signage is in place. 

On Facebook, Castle Chocolates wrote: "A great sign of things to come.

"Signage has gone up today. We're working hard to be ready for the big opening on Saturday at 10am."
