Ed Sheeran has revealed the one unexpected snack he always keeps in his music studio, after having received an oil barrel full of it by music producer Blake Slatkin when finishing his latest album
Ed Sheeran has revealed what unexpected snack he always keeps in his personal studio, after having been gifted it from a producer he worked with on his recent album.
The Suffolk-based singer, 34, recently released his latest studio album, Play, on September 12, which saw the singer return to ‘big pop’ music. It quickly became Sheeran’s ninth consecutive chart-topper in the United Kingdom. It also topped the charts in Ireland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Poland, Australia, and New Zealand.
For the album, he worked with a long list of different music producers and musicians, including Blake Slatkin, who has previously worked with stars such as Justin Bieber, Gracie Abrams, Lizzo, and Shakira – who recently cancelled a concert due to health issues.
And as Sheeran finished the album, the singer revealed in the Mythical Kitchen podcast that Slatkin gifted him with a large amount of a particular chocolate, which has come to be a must have snack in his studio now.
“So Blake, who I made my album with, when we finished my album, he bought me 10,000 of these in an oil drum,” Ed revealed, while holding up a red, milk chocolate Lindt Lindor truffle.
He went on to say that he kept the chocolate filled oil drum in his studio from them having finished the album in October 2024 until they recently ran out, as he kept handing them out to people passing through his studio.
“They are now gone,” Ed revealed. “We had 10,000 of these eaten in a year. All eaten. We actually ordered more, for the oil drum.”
To this, host Josh said: “If there’s ever a Lindt Lindor Truffle shortage, you know they’ve gone to Ed Sheeran’s oil drum inside the studio.”
Ed then went on to say that he was happy that the Lindt balls were sold in America, arguing that the American chocolate he’d tried wasn’t as nice. However, he did say that he liked Reese’s Pieces peanut butter candy.
Other viewers went on to share that they agreed with Ed that Lindt chocolate is some of the best types of chocolate.
“Those are the best chocolate ever,” one person agreed, while another viewer said: “An oil drum of chocolates is wild.”
“I need to know if there is a variety of flavours for the truffles or if it’s only the red,” another person said, adding that they wanted to know what variations Ed had in his oil drum.
Another viewer went on to defend Hershey’s chocolate, as they shared: “Hey Hershey is great on a s’mores. I believe that is its intended purpose.”
